I don't really need to respond here because I think that pnj, brick and typhoon have really suimmed it all up for me but...

I'll respond to you with a question....

How many do you think I have sold? You see I asked for them to EMAIL me and not repond to the post so guess what...the number of responses has NOTHING to do with the number I have sold.

I have sold roughly 1/2 of what I ordered but I will and am able to get more so keep the requests rollin in guys!!!

As I have said in the past...I am here to work with you and get you the best deal I can. I don't need to make $50 per transaction to be happy.

Thanks again to all who have ordered and I will be in touch as soon as I see the balls...which should be tomorrow or Monday!!!

First off Doug, Pnj and others.....

I wasn't running off at the mouth about something I don't know anything about.  It wasn't a slight on Doug or his work....was a simple question that Doug and others got overly defensive about.  Doug and I have dealt before in the past with no problems I am aware of.  Having been a bowler for 27yrs and having my father run a proshop for 14yrs, I think I have a "clue" about proshop workings.  The reason I asked the question is because I know of SEVERAL PS operators that will not touch a ball that was not drilled by them unless they are going to plug it up and fix it.  And no....not nearly as many bowlers as you think carry the tools to tweak their equipment.  Personally, I have a very delicately milled thumbhole that I seriously doubt anyone could copy on the first try, so it wouldnt be beneficial for me to take this gamble so to speak.  

Doug's prices are well inline, as I stated before.  Doug's reputation is stone solid.  Neither point did I ever put into question.  Don't accuse peeps of shooting their mouth off until you look a little more closely.

D M,

First of all, I have had Doug drill over 7 balls for me and HE HAS NOT MADE A MISTAKE.  All anyone has to do is take a ball that fits perfectly, ship it to him, and HE WILL MATCH IT PERFECTLY, and will ship it back to you.  Oh and by the way , IF, and I say it lodly again, IF he were to make a mistake, I would ship it back and he would make it right, BUT I have not had to do that yet!!!!!!!!

Well DM call it defensive or not but what I saw was a need to tell the people involved what I WOULD DO in such a circumstance. I have every right to be defensive when someone attempts to deal with a facet of MY business.

It is quite obvious that you don't know how I operate (or at least didn't) and proceeded to show your lack of knowledge of my business operations with your post.

So the need was there to clarify the situation so that people do not think that what you said was how I would deal with things.

And as for your "delicately milled thumbhole" some people need that and that is fine. Thats why I have access to a digital $15,000 milling machine where I can set up a program and mill out a thumbslug when needed. I have a master machinist ready to help me whenever I need anything done.

I agree, nice price but if I had wanted to get 16# balls I could have gotten them cheaper too. It seems that suppliers are having trouble moving the 16's so they charge less for them.

Thanks for the post!!!

Anyway...who wants an X-Factor reloaded in 15# for $125 plus shipping?

Can also do them drilled....
ball, inserts and slug shipped for $175
ball, inserts shipped for $165
ball drilled fingertip, no inserts or slug shipped for $155

How's that????

Also FYI...those of you that have ordered already will receive the new pricing.

Doug is my competition, but that is cheap.

I sell them for 229 regularly in my shop without anything done, grips slug, or tax.

See, look at the other prices, and all you that complain about ones like Doug's are just plain dumb.  Everyone else sells for making a higher profit, BUT because many bowlers are too CHEAP, they complain about 3 dollars (see another thread on Ceapness/Witness).  If you don't like the prices, just say thanks, then close your lips, and go shop elsewhere, so that those of us who eat up those kind of prices, and still get Doug's kind of service, can jump all over them.

Geez, you people really must not have a clue what it's like to run a pro shop.  I'm creating a post about this.

DM,

You may have said YOUR piece, but their are alot more pices to this thread than yours.  The puzzle ain't complete untril ALL the pieces are in, and if the horse is dead then you do not have to keep reading or replying.  I do see more pieces for Doug's prices than I do for you comments.  I say let's make sure the horse is dead; there may be other pieces like yours, that might just resurrect that old horse, and we would have to shoot it again.

Long Live Doug's ProShop, and Long Live Doug Sterner

Dave

Well, as the initiator of this thread I reserve the right to do this. Due to the obvious tangent this thread had taken, I am going to lock this topic after the following post.

Once again the purpose of this post was to notify the BR forum that I have gotten access to 2 (now possibly 3) cases of X-Factor Reloadeds at a rock bottom price. I can sell these balls at VERY near regular wholesale price.

15# X-Factor Reloadeds...$125 plus shipping.

If you are desiring drilling services, I can provide those also priced as follow:

ball and fingertip drill with no inserts or slug...$155 shipped.
ball and fingertip drill with inserts OR slug....$165 shipped.
ball and fingertip drill with slug AND inserts...$175 shipped.

prices include shipping to the 48 contiguous US via UPS Ground. Tracking numbers will be provided via email when your order is entered into the UPS system if desired.

Please email me at dougsproshop@aol.com if you are interested in taking advantage of this offer.

Thank you all (well most) for your support and hospitality on this issue.
