Good price for inserts online?
« on: July 21, 2004, 09:05:57 PM »
I'm looking for Turbo grip inserts.

Is there anyone on this site that sells them for a good price or is there a site online that has a good deal?  I'm likely going to be buying in a quantity of 10 or more.

Hey, I buy mine from http://www.bowlerschoice.com they are good people to deal with. They run about $1.10 a piece. You may be able to find them cheaper though, but like I said I like to deal with sites I trust.

Good Luck, cooksey

Ballreviews userid, Pba1g11, who is Mike Cimba, who runs Mike Cimba's Pro Shop @ Nesbit's Lanes- Pittsburgh, PA, www.bowlbetternow.com, has often posted here, selling inserts at very reasonable prices.

While I have also purchased inserts from Bowlers' Choice, Mike seems to have a wider selection.

Both people have very good service and cheap prices.

I just ordered some Turbo Quads yesterday from Wild Octopus. They come on packages of 10. Regular price $18.20 for 10. Currently discounted to $17.20 for 10.

I ordered 2 sizes of 10 each. Cost was $34.40 for 20 grips  plus $3.50 for shipping bring grand total to $37.90 or $ 1.895 each.

My proshop is $2.50 each plus 7.875% tax bringing total to $2.70 each, so I saved $16.10. Click on the link below.

A seconder for Mike Cimba.
However I cant get onto his site at the moment (dont have a password), but he always answers his mail if hes not giving a sound thrashing to the superstars.
Also the more you buy the cheaper they get so it may be worth your while asking around to make a bigger order for friends and family.
