Striking Motions for $99 Drilled?
« on: January 19, 2009, 02:01:13 AM »
Im not one to stir things up, but holy crap

http://www.bowlersparadise.com/mailing/1-09/ebonite_striking_motion.shtml

What happened to ebonite international protecting the brick and mortar pro shops?  Did i miss something here?

On Edit: I realize this does not include shipping, but that still leaves you well below what shops can most likely buy the ball for

Whatever,  good point.  I know I don't care what elite rip off has to say. Hey JLS, keep up the good work.  It seems like you hit a nerve.

Hey Whatever,  maybe some day you will have the guts to stick up for a cause.
I stick up for pro shops against back stabbers!!!!

All you seem to be able to do it shoot off your big mouth.

Now I don't know who Elite is, nor do I care.  He is nothing to me, and you are even less.

BTW,   checkout what BP is now advertising.

Are we clear now

Sammy and jls,

No nerve hit here....just stating the facts...something jls doesn't have before he mouths off.  Melnikoff has a beef with Ebonite about the price fixing thing and he likes to try and rattle their nerves......like this new offer....buy one of his crappy balls that he pays about 40 bucks for and get one of the new Ebonite/Hammer ones for cheap......he thinks he's bending the rules and always trying to prove that Ebonite cant control everything.  He actually thinks he can.  Plus, him and Bowlingball.com go round and round trying to steal each others business.



Elite,  maybe if you took the time and learned how to read, you would have seen that I never said he owns them.  I said, "when I think of BP, I think of him."   Your the one that brought up he may own them.

Now many people I know in the business, feel that they know who is behind BP.
Some believe he uses  a certain dist. for west coast shipments and a east coast dist. for midwest and east shipemnts.

BTW  sir,   I do like your name>>>  "Elite rip off"

ok

YaYa we all no its BS. But I own a Pro Shop in Sac. So i called my Ebonite rep. and he said Bowlers paradise as to pay the same cost as anyone else. But its up to bowlers paradise to sell the ball at what he wants, and if he loses money on it oh well. But where he gets ya is the shipping. I played the game and called to order 3 cases at that price only if i could come down and pic them up. The sales rep said "NO its only and internet price". My response to her was well the shipping across town from them to me was less then 10 mile so why is the shipping still $48. for 2 ball(striking motion & Rubber ball)? She didn't know and then shes aid they are out of stock any how. But then she says that there in store pro shop price was $209.95. No big loss my guess bowlers paradise is trying to stir website traffic..I also know if i have an Elite bowling product problem i have to return it to the same bowlers paradise warehouse. So my shop and other pro shoppes in the area just don't carry Elite products cause it sells online for my wholesale price is...  sorry i had to give my 2 sense....

Well the Striking Motion is now selling for $149.   Pretty much back to normal.
But now he is selling the Magic at $149.

Now I hate to be the one to say this,  but the magic at $149 is a little high!!!  About $10-$15 too high???

Maybe this is his way of trying to makeup
