I ordered a ball from Buddies last Monday and they said it shipped on Wednesday. Sent a tracking number and UPS website still says that it has only received shipping information. Poor communication.

I guess if I owned Buddies I would promote the hell out of them too.. Funny , this is a FORUM.. not a ONLY SAY GOOD THINGS site
So then it's wrong for people who've had good experiences with buddies to post them? Face it, your logic is horrible and shows you only have some vendetta against buddies. You're getting pissed off because some people on here have had good experiences with buddies. READ the original post, it asks for feedback about online stores. If someone has positive feedback with a site, you're telling me they shouldn't post it because we should only know all the bad things about a site??
I should flame you since you praised bowlers paradise. Afterall, this isn't a say nice things forum.

One little note. Long Roller says that when he tracks his package that the UPS website does not regognize the billing info. When I just entered the tracking info it says scheduled for delivery on Tuesday the 15th. So it seems to be working correctly.

I don't know of a company where the owner (Chris) calls customers when there is a problem like he has with me in the past.
I guess I would say Buddies is #1 in my book.

I always check the prices of these three against each other and order from the least expensive. In my experience, depending upon the combination of items purchased the cheapest price could be any of them. If price is the same at all three Buddies would get my business because of previous extra efforts on their part.

Buddies - purchased 5 balls in the past, got my specs and quick delivery.
Blockbuster - buy all my cleaners and polishes from them, no problems.

Doug Sterner (Dougsproshop.net) has been my go to guy. He may not be able to beat Buddies with prices but he makes that up in his customer service. Doug goes out of his way to make sure his customers are happy. If there's a problem he fixes it. Never had a problem though. I will only buy balls from him.
Well I guess it's up to you. If you think you're getting a good deal then go for it. I just don't like to take risks and get burned. Buddies and Doug are dependable.

I have had good experiences with: BuddiesProShop, BeansProShop, bowlingball.com, Wild Octopus, bowlbetternow.com, and fellow poster Iketown300.
I have purchased balls from bowlingball.com more often than not because he has a huge presence on ebay and I enjoy the auction.
BuddiesProShop and bowlingball.com are offering great prices that include shipping on several balls that are current production. I didn't take advantage of buddies sale on the RS-P, and the RS-X, and I wish I had, and I wish there could be a similar sale on Dynothanes' Centrifical Mass.
Anyway, several of the proshops are represented on this forum by both employees and owners, and I am sure you would have a good experience with any of them.
I haven't had a truly bad experience with any of those I have mentioned - one may ship a little faster that the other, one may have great after sale comunication and another not. Bottom line - I have always received what I ordered from all of them.
