Brunswick blems and comps?
« on: February 14, 2006, 10:15:58 PM »
Why is it that I never see any Brunswick blems or comp balls?  Does Brunswick destroy them rather than letting them get out into the market?

i don't see them for sale much online or anything, but i've seen quite a few in the shop. they're marked a little more discretely than some other companies with a huge X on them somewhere. they're marked with a little 2 in the lower part of the B, just engraved, no fill like the serial.

there's a guy in my area that used to have hundreds of them for sale. haven't heard from him in a while though.

Because they just change the pin or engraving color and call it a different version? (I.E.- blazing inferno/blazing inferno hard---Zone classic green pin/zone classic red pin)

  Why sell it as a second and lose money when you can call it a "special issue" and charge a more regular price for it?
