Storm/Roto Booth
« on: May 04, 2009, 03:18:08 AM »
Any decent deals in the Storm or Roto booth this year?  I wouldn't think there would be too many cuz I leave at the end of the month and was wondering if they had anything.

So, Ebonite owns the Booth? Can I still get Turbo products there?
Do you have cards from last year or previous years?
For example, if J.J. walked in and said, drill me a ball from my
record wining performance in Reno. Can you do still do that?
No big deal, just wondering.
If the Eight Ball Team said, drill balls with the same specs, can you still do that?
I will be there on Memorial Weekend, We always have ball drilled just for the tournament.

I think K&K was hired to man the Ebonite booth this year, including Columbia and Track. But in their own proshops, like any good proshop they carry all brands of equipment to suit their clients. Nothing wrong with that, and I wouldn't expect otherwise. No Proshop worth their salt would only carry one brand/manufacturer.
I think some of the posts, like the used car salesman comment, are more then a bit uncalled for.

But you hijacked the post asking about the Storm/Roto booth. I think the used car salesman comments were spot on... Knowing the costs of running a booth out there I know how tempting it is to do this and try to drum up as much business as possible but it's pretty sad when you post something like this.. How would you feel if an online retailer or Doug Heim for that matter had a mobile proshop and sold Ebonite International products for cost. Pretty close to the same thing..

Business is business but I just thik this is a shady deal here.

Just my opinion....

i agree with Beans I actually met him last year in the Lane botth and found him to be a stand up guy with morals in business.  I was just checking to see if there were any discontinued deals or things of that nature in the storm/roto booth.  I will never have a ball drilled there again after the guy from the ebonite booth missed my span by 1/4 on each finger

Beans-- You try to get business off this site.  How is that any different?
They are businessmen, trying to make the most money that they can.  There
is nothing wrong with that.  They are merely taking advantage of their
locations in relation to the tournament this year.  It is a unique opportunity.

I stated the same thing you speak of.

I agree with the location being an advantage...


I was upset about the hijacked post...

I misunderstood.  Your point is well taken.
