got a question about a cracked ball
« on: August 28, 2008, 03:31:13 AM »
alright guys i havent been around in awhile with summer and all, but anyways, hello again.

over the summer my purple vibe cracked! terrible thing cuz that ball was money. my little question is, i had just had the purple vibe drilled up in march/april because that is when my buddy found me one, and it was one that was in a warehouse somewhere, it doesnt even have the usbc logo on it. my question is would hammer warranty this ball or would it just be tough luck...

rymacatthedisco, did you order it online or a pro shop? and do you still have the receipt for it? if so, hammer may take the ball back, since you have not had it for more than a year. its definitely worth a shot.

good luck!

If it doesn't have the USBC logo that could be interesting.  Where did you get the ball

I had a similar situation with a new/old stock ball.  My driller said he would replace the ball, but nothing in the current line-up replaces the ball reaction this ball gives me.

Frustrating!  I've had two balls crack over the summer, just from sitting in my closet!

my buddy found it from a guy who bought a bowling alley and in the back of where they kept everything they had a bunch of balls and i was looking for a purple vibe so he hooked me up. i paid the guy but it was just an outright buy with no reciept. so i guess im kinda sol on this one and it sucks cuz i cant find nething that rolls like it
