Since buddies is a huge internet proshop and are an actual brick and mortar shop, they would still have walk ins off the street rather than all online sales. How do you price items instore if they are already online?
Ex Twisted Fury is 150 online and instore is 180? I know drilling fees can make the difference but what about buying it off buddies online and having them drill it. Would there instore prices reflect there internet ones?
Guess it's a general question but buddies the only shop that is still a true brick and mortar i can think of that is as big as the big guys like bowling.com and bowlersparadise.com

I wonder if they ever have folks buy balls from their online store and bring them in to have them drilled there as well. (if it meant they saved 2 bucks or whatever)

hello
prices are exactly what you find on the site for all products. Ball prices are that of the website plus $50 for drilling (with grips and slug). if no grips and slug then $30 drill fee.
So in the shop the posted prices are with drilling, grips and slugs added to the online price and then adjusted down if a customer does not want grips and or slug.

Great business idea, might try to incorporate that with my customer base in the near future. Build a website similar to what Pizza Hut does, buy it online and pick up in the store. Chalked full of convenience!

that's what i figured.
We are going to do something like that.
Problem is in our market there is a huge difference in canada vs the states.
Most a gravity in the states might be is 230-240 tops. here it can be up to 330$
The difference in whole sale prices in canada vs us is about 25% sometimes.
This is because we have two sales taxes(provincal and federal)
