Just for the hellavit, really. And there's nothing wrong with my mixed-bag of AMF/900G/L1 but I'm always up for an experiment. The big issue is that my trusty Break S75 is approaching 500 games now and is due for an oil extraction and resurface, as it has lost a good bit of its backend pop, and I'd rather not subject it to our summer league Sahara-esque lanes anyway.

Past couple of weeks, I've used a Clutch Pearl and a LaneMasters Satisfaxion with good results. But again, I'm trying to keep some mileage off those pieces.

I would really like to get my hands on an Agent Orange NIB to slot above a BuzzBomb/R, with a Supernova XP and G-Force Evolution under those and a Chainsaw at the bottom, which I think would be a nice progression. Trouble has been finding a NIB Agent Orange. The only one for sale on this site is a pin-in and the only ones on eBay are going for $208 from bowlingball.com, which is ridiculous.

If it all works, then I'll really be in a conundrum for the start of fall...lol. Stick with L1 or go with a mixed bag again.

Jess

I might give you a shout in a couple of days. I had another member PM me a couple of hours ago with a lead on one and I told him he had dibs. Thanks for speaking up.

jess, i am doing the very same for my summer league as well. and i am also looking for a NIB Agent Orange in 14lbs. for my heavy oil ball. i have a Blue Death to fit below that. with a Retro THS to fit below the Blue Death. and a Supernova XP to go below the THS. so far its working really well. hope i can find an AO very soon to complete the arsenal. and your right $208.00 is absolutly insane. let me know how its working out for ya.

WOW $170 for a ball nobody wants or isn't in demand.  You keep reaching new highs don't you beanarino.  When I say highs, i really mean lows.

Funny since I sold 2 already dipnuts!!!

Your jealousy makes me laugh....

You need to get a life instead of wishing you had mine!

Your shallow attempts to bash me and tarnish me constantly fail. Why do you bother??

The value of an item is what someone is willing to pay for them. Not what you think it's worth. So go have another Lane#1 Stroke and try again!

one of those balls once they were gone people wanted it

I just spent 3 weeks locating a nib buzzbomb that nobody wanted

i got guys crawling out looking for dynamos now too,

supply and demand drives the price, when supply is gone demand goes up

if someone were to give me 200 for my buzzbomb, i'd not put holes in it lol

Well if the Agent Orange is anything like the Dynamo (Ball of the Year), then you will have no problem making your money back in pot games.
