Jimmy T, you are entitled to your own opinion, and you obviously don't take time to read other posts I make. I said the proshop I got my uranium at it was 180. That is what the owner would of charged anybody that wanted to order a Uranium. And if anyone wanted to order from the proshop I would of given them an address etc.

Now when it comes to the English tutoring, I do not appreciate that, I understand that my spelling might not be perfect but this is not a graded assignment so it does not have to be perfect. I highly doubt everybody else here types with no errors. Anyways I'm done here.

Giving a guy a discount like this isn't unheard of in business. It's similar to a grocery store taking coupons for an on sale item. Granted, it is a higher price bracket than orange juice, but you get the point. If the guy got a deal, I say congrats. I'm not gonna sit here and say ooh you're a liar like a 2 year old. Good work should be rewarded, discounts are just one way to do this. Now, as far as comp golf balls go, whoever is sending I'll give you my address.

With that said, it's safe to say you might have around $200 invested in one of those outrageously expensive and overpriced Lane #1 monsters.  Can you guys believe that...???...$200....???..for a high performance ball, drilled, with grips and a thumb slug..??

What on Earth is this world coming to...?

Well 230 or Bust, at my pro shop, a Storm Fear Factor complete with drilling, slugs, grips, and sales tax is $249. The last time I looked, $249 is more than $200.

Same here, when I got my X-Factor, the guy who runs the pro shop wanted to charge me $240, I was like, "FVCK THAT!" but even when he gave me a "discount" it was still $210. I dont think I am going back to that pro shop.

What's your point?  You got your Uranium at Doug's, not your local proshop.  If everyone would stop comparing Lane#1 online pricing with a brick and mortar proshop's price on other balls, maybe the "Lane#1 costs too much" arguements might disappear.  I'm not picking on you Brickguy; I'm just tired of that defense.

I agree with strider just quit already. Damn it's $170 here in our town. Which isn't but $15.00 more than most other companies balls in our town. It's plain and simple either buy that ball are keep quiet. I don't see this crap posted on every other manufactures balls site on BR.

Strider, there is no defense. It is facts. FYI you can buy at my local Pro Shop right now an Uranium complete with drilling, thumb insert, finger grips plus tax  for $215. That is still less than $249 for a Fear Factor.

Singer, the reason you don't see this crap (as you call it) posted on any other manufacturers site is because no one sits around and complains about the prices of their balls like you people do with Lane 1. You can bet your life that if everyone critized other manufacturers balls, people like your self would be sticking up for your ball company just like people that like Lane 1 balls stick up for Lane 1.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Strider & Singer,
To sum it up, if all of you people would keep your mouths shut and quit critizing Lane 1 balls and Lane 1 prices, you wouldn't hear a peep out of people such as my self. Try it and see.....

Perfect.  I have no problem with that comparison.  Almost every other one given (including your earlier one) compares apples to oranges.  Online Buzzsaw vs. other high end equipment at a local shop.

Ya gotta learn how to use quotes; makes it easier to read.

Also, where do you see me critizing their equipment or prices???  Do a search and find where I said where they make bad equipment or cost too much.   I tried a few, didn't care for them, but don't mention it unless asked.  I don't rip on their prices.  If it works, buy it.  You don't need to justify it to anyone.

------------------------------------------------------------

Strider, what you've got to understand is that a lot of Pro Shops don't sell Lane 1 balls. Mine neither until Monday of this week of which I just found out about around 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon..... Prior to that, the only choice was to order my Lane 1 balls on line. Others on this site that quote prices have the same situtation with their local Pro Shops not carrying Lane 1 balls. I've heard them say so. Regardless of whether you agree or not, comparing prices of on line bought balls to local Pro Shop prices on balls they sell, is definitely justified as far as I am concerned, thus making it comparing apples to apples.
