Did anyone do the staffer package on bowlersdeals.com?

I signed up! Seems pretty neat! The price on newer releases is what I like!

Nobody is making you.  I was going to buy a couple of balls anyway and this was a good deal for doing that.  To each their own.

I really see no advantage to the website doing this for a little bit of advertising. Also, who is going to be the jersey police and make sure you wear the jersey every time you bowl. I see it as a decent internet deal for the silver package for 1 year only and then quit. The gold deal is not worth it unless your used to buying everything at pro shop prices.

This is also not a true "staff" position, it is just the way the website words it to make people jump at the deal. People are so hung up on the thought of being a staffer. If your a true staffer, you get all of your equipment, bags and shirts for FREE or maybe pay very little for your stuff. I know several true staffers and that's the way it works. But hey to each his own. If you thinks its a great deal, go for it. It's not for me..

Who knows, it might get some people on the "radar" for full staff status at BD.  If you get a ton of people to use your promo code, they can track that and they could offer a "real" staff position to those people.

So they are going to give a staff position to the best sales person?? I would be willing to bet there will be no full staff positions at this website.

But like I said, to each his own and if you like the idea, go for it..

Man there are some grumpy people on this site.  Dont you have to be a touring professional or regional player ....or have a pro shop or Both to get a 'real' staff position??  I read that some free agents on tour still have to pay for some/most equipment.   If I was on tour or had a shop the stipulations would be even more complicated.   ALL I have to do is wear a shirt, THATS IT....not a bad deal.  I get high end equipment at the lowest price possible...for an average joe.  I order from the site all the time...so why not get it cheaper that I usually do? And atleast they are doing something intriguing...most of the other sites are doing absolutely nothing for their customers.

Curious if anybody was rejected...I'm guessing no.

This whole thing seems interesting.  I can't see doing it long term (you would need to but a lot of stuff to cover the $200 going forward), but I don't see the harm in doing it for a year.
Hit the pocket and hope for the best

This looks like a copy of Visionary's staff discount plans. They also had silver and gold level plans, buying balls per year at a discount plus a bag and a jersey.

It just helps them advertise and get recognition for their company.
