We will get to the bottom of this. Our policy has not changed. At times people try to find a way around the system, but the internet police are all over this.

Buyers Beware.  Our little friend Craig has been nabbed by INTERPOL.  Shipment was canned and he aint happy.  Poor guy.  Pro shops stick together and when someone does something stupid like this it doesnt take long to find out who they really are.  If you have a bid for the 1 ball he ordered you going to be disappointed.  Thanks to everyones help on here!

Go ahead and bid it as high as you want, just going to cost him more money for the ending percent that Ebay takes, in fact that would be great if you guys did that. lol.  He has a(as in 1) Creature that he got fraudently, but he has none(as in 0) Break Pearls.  He is at work and told me he would take it off later this evening.

Pro shops in store only. You are welcome to advertise carrying the product but we do not want them sold online. We are not only trying to protect our products value but the proshops that support us as well.

Good for you guys! People don't have a clue how something like this would piss a company or distributor or even the pro shop off. I have not seen very many of your bowling balls in my area.

Hey, no disrespect to 900G, I like the only proshops idea and everything, but what if I were to correctly buy a 900G ball from a proshop, drilled it up, but end up disliking the ball. Why would I not be able to sell the ball on ebay? If I bought the ball and now own it, I should be able to sell it on ebay like any other ball, Correct? or no?

In a word, Correct.

The can not control sales after the first sale, nor do they intend to. So, you can buy the ball and resale it wherever you want. You just can not hold yourself out as an authorized distributor for the company.

Ok, thanks just trying to clear that up, because I thought it sounded wrong as I went over it in my head
