We all have seen the posts in the past that complain about how many balls are getting put out on the market but I have a question....

has anyone looked at bags lately?

OMG !!!!! It seems that every comapny makes 4-5 different 2 ball roller bags and each is available in like 500 colors...what gives???

Anybody see the new Lady Ebonite bags? Single ball bags that look like a purse with flower print inserts on the side ?!?!?!?!!?

What happened to the good old days when you went to buy a bag and jsut needed to know 1 or 2 balls and black or blue?

I just got done doing my new season pricing and it was a real eye opener. I think Brunswick has 3 different levels of roller bags, same with Ebo and Storm.

Does any company need 5 different styles of single ball bags? Color changes I can understand, shoes or no shoes I can deal with but c'mon here....

Anybody wanna shed some light on this?

Doug,

Well, it's easy to see that for you, as a seller, this is annoying. FOr us as users, the range of colors is a good thing. I, for one, am sick of just black or green. Women want 739 shades of mauve and 477 shades of chartreuse, which is senseless, since they will spend 3 hours buying 1 bag every 4 years, maybe. I'd say stock one and point to the catalog if they want other shades, but, then, they will want to see it in person to see if matches their shoes ....
