That works for the ball companies... then they don't have to keep up with much demand.

Maybe newer Reactor is better, but I hated my Fired Up, then there was another one I had that I didn't like.  Got a friend that throws nothing but Storm, and he can't find a ball with Reactor that works for him either.  It's too freaking sharp.  We don't have a lot of oil here though . .

Whoever would pay that much just because they can't wait, need their head examined.

I hope these people bidding on this ball stop doing whatever crack they're on. BUT! Like the seller states in the auction, this ball has better entry angle and less deflection! That must be why it's going for 315+ lol.

Jeez, I need to unsuspend my ebay account and put mine up.

For anyone interested, pick your weight and spec and I'm selling it for $145 shipped.

I agree with Ham and Crash a bit, my balls with Reactor and R2S coverstocks are pretty overunder with polish. I had to dull them up to get a smooth and predictable reaction out of them (Pyro and T-Road Pearl). The Pyro with its particle is very very very predictable and smooth. The T-Road Pearl is at 4000, and it can still be a nightmare.
