Seed balls (or other seed products) are balls that are distributed or sold in low quantities before the ball becomes available on the market - sometimes even before the marketing machinery gets really loud. It is a form of guerilla marketing.
The idea is to catch the attention of "those with a keen eye" and start word of mouth effects, plus the "cool" effect for having a ball that is ahead of its market introduction. Elite did this some weeks ago with their PBA Major, and the ball should be O.K. (no blem or second quality thing).
