I still have no use for such a company that simply reproduce old balls. I have no problem with private labels, small companys and upstarts but get some R&D people and design some damn cores, use whatever old covers you want but at least create some new cores Geez people.

thank you very much about responding to me e-mails. i want to restate then i never meant to bash you and when i went to get and e-mail address from the website i knew your name thats why i email you before the others. i dont want to bash anyone i have a love for the game. i feel that i know more about the game but just cant it together for myself. those who are just starting the game may not know about cores and coverstocks. here is what i have found from the pictures posted last night on bowlers paradise
elite rs48 core sure does look like the classic zone,impulze zone and strike zone core
does this ball have a psa marking as well? kind of curious of you answer on this one 179.00 in my shop plus 20 grips and slug=199.00 your price is 159 + 10 shipping+40 drilling+20 grips and slug=229.00 well doesnt seem like a deal to me
elite p43 and r43 sure do look like the cores of the monsters bruiser and im sure one of them has he same cover but i will wait for your response brusier i think was 159.00 plus 20 grips and slug=179.00 in my shop and yours is 159 + 10 shipping+40 drilling+20 grips and slug=229.00 well doesnt seem like a deal to me more like a rip off
elite r47 this one was tricky to figure out what it was but in my opinion i think its the danger zone but like i said this one was tougher to figure still not sure. if it is the danger zone in m proshop i could got this ball for 179.00 plus grips and slug for 20 more toal 199 your price is 159 + 10 shipping+40 drilling+20 grips and slug=229.00 well doesnt seem like a deal to me
assuming these balls are what they appear to be thats no good business it it?
who does make elite bowling balls? where are they located?
as far as the bags go did elite design them or did someone else and you just slap the elite name on it?
come on gary lets be serious and honest

Brunswick will put any label on ther products if you have the money so my first entry in the ball market will be called "Mezzmerise"
The Thermal Nuclear Technology coverstock which will read the proper amount of friction on the lane and in the oil pattern, eliminating the dreaded "over/under" ball reaction. If they lanes are oily the coverstock automatically adjusts itself to grab sooner if it is drier it will grab later,hit hard,create more area and be forgiving to erratic releases and ball speed.
You will be "Mezzmerised"!!

im not worried about my spelling its a post not a paper to turn in for a grade i dont cre if it doesnt look great the point is elite is scamming people and personally i dont think its fair and im sure others dont as well
Guess again. You are always being graded. How you communicate and how you present yourself are two of the most important facets of interaction with others. If you can't be bothered to communicate properly, why would I think you can be bothered to do any other job properly? Or that you are intelligent enough to respond to in an intelligent manner?
It takes just as much effort to write a proper letter as it does to write the, uhh, letter you wrote.

Shelly, are you a teacher or something??? it seems you are the BR.com forum police correcting incorrect posts...
No, I've just been reading forums and newsgroups and echoes for nearly 15 years and it pains me to see people think that "it's not for a grade" makes it acceptable to write like an uneducated grade-school dropout.
Really, does Dustin speak like that? Read the letter aloud, without the natural pauses that the missing punctuation would imply. Read exactly the words in the post.
"i want to restate then i never meant to bash you and when i went to get and e-mail address from the website i knew your name thats why i email you before the others."
Read that sentence aloud and tell me it's acceptable to write like that. You'd never actually talk like that if you were in an actual conversation. So why write like that?

I could care less if you capitalize, and I can look past the misspellings, but there is something about trying to read a post that is several sentences just jumbled together.
Another peeve is the people that refuse to use the "enter" key when they write long posts. It looks bad, and it's hard to follow.
There is nothing wrong with putting a few line breaks in a post to make it easier to read.
Most of the time I just skip those posts altogether. I think maybe the point is - if you are going to take the time to write something, take the time to make it easier for others to read and understand.

Just as important, if you want other people to take their time to read your post, do them a favor and make it easy to read. The "time" required to write it properly (or some approximation of "properly") pales in comparison to the time required to read it.
If you don't care what it looks like or care about what you say enough to say it right, why should we care about what you have to say?
