will sell your mom a ball at a loss of about $50?
Man I wish I were that lucky. Maybe if she had some
unused credits or vouchers or credit at the shop then I could
see it. But the way it stands now Drillwizard and Doug Sterner
don't even get the balls for that and they are the top and the third biggest sellers of Lane #1 products in the world. I just cannot see ANY shop
selling for a loss.

The Pro at your golf coarse gets the balls for free. Sometimes from the Distributor and sometimes from the sales rep so the balls he gives you are not costing him anything nor is it money out of his pocket to give you these balls...
I'm not gonna argue with you lol. I put in the orders for the ball half the time so I think I would know if he gets them free or not. Maxfli gives him free stuff because he's on their staff but Titleist does not, he just has an account with them. So yes... it DOES happen. Maybe he feels bad for me being underpaid as an assistant pro but nonetheless he DOES pay for them out of his own pocket.

Nizzo-read the original post. Unless your mommy
can help him get a ball for that price, you have
wasted everyones time. You also should have saved
your gift certificate for English tutoring.

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.

I got mine from Mike Cimba on here, his username is pba1g11.I got the ball ,1 thumbs slug , 2 inserts for $169.05 and shipping was free.
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...?

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.

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.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------Quote....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.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
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.
