One other thing I should also say. Should I find a ball or supply that is rare, like an overseas ball, and it is only online, if I really want it I’ll pull the trigger and buy it online, but I will give the ball’s specs to the local PSO so he can punch it up to my specs.
I’m leery on having g an online PSO drill up a ball for me, and get the fit completely wrong. That and time and cost of shipping the ball back each time is, IMHO, not worth the cost of drilling protection.
But the rarity is the only reason I’d buy online, but would buy the ball undrilled. My local PSO will punch that up for me.
