Bowling Knowledge Ball Sales
« on: August 22, 2008, 04:45:23 PM »
I am attempting a new strategy for bowling ball sales. The concept is Cost + with an emphasis on quantity sales. Additionally, I will only charge my actual shipping cost and provide inexpensive drilling fees.

I dont intend to compete in quantity with Buddies online services. But I will be lower than them all. The goal is to provide the lowest cost period and provide only top quality (no factory 2nds) and service on a limited scale. Hopefully in the neighborhood of 20-30 balls per month.

My goal is not to replace my good paying job but to provide extra income for me and my son to use as entry fees for tournaments where we hope to convert  it into some profit.

So here goes:

Drilling: $15.00
Drilling with Slug and Inserts: $25.00
(I am not selling Slugs and Inserts otherwise)

1 Ball = Cost + 20%
2 or 3 Balls = Cost + 18%
4 Balls (case) = Cost + 15%
Larger Quantities Discount upon request

Here is my initial Ball Offering to test the concept:
   Maker   Name               Weight Top   Pin  Cost
1. Hammer  Black Widow        15 03  3.00  2-3  96.00 See Actual Ball
2. Hammer  Black Widow Perl   15 02  3.25  2-3 104.00 See Actual Ball
3. Hammer  Black Window Bite  15 00  3.00  2-3 104.00 See Actual Ball SOLD Shane300
4. Hammer  Black Window Venom 15 02  2.00  2-3  97.00 See Actual Ball SOLD - Shane300
5. Track   Up Rising          15 02  2.25  3-4   83.00 See Actual Ball  SOLD - Bowl-2-win
6. Track   Tantrum            15 01  4.75  2-3   63.00 See Actual Ball
7. Track   Kinetic Energy     15 03  2.25  2-3   79.00 See Actual Ball SOLD - SHANE300
8. Track   Kinetic Perl         15 03  2.75  3-4   75.00 See Actual Ball  SOLD - Bowl-2-win
9. Columbia Jazz              15 02  2.50  3-4   56.00 See Actual Ball
10.Columbia Momentum Swing    15 02  2.75  2-3   96.00 See Actual Ball  SOLD - EJ300
11.Columbia Arch Rival        15 03  3.00  4-5   72.00 See Actual Ball SHIPPING - ERICFLO
12.Columbia Noize             15 02  2.50  2-3  70.00 See Actual Ball SOLD - EJ300
13.Hammer   Psycho            15 00  3.50  3-4   87.00 See Actual Ball
14.Hammer   Vibe Emerald      15 04  2.75  2-3  75.00 See Actual Ball SOLD Proshopkid
15.Hammer   Black Widow Venom 15 03  2.50  2-3  97.00 See Actual Ball
16.Hammer   Black Widow Bite  15 03  3.50  3-4  104.00 See Actual Ball
17.Ebonite  The One           15 02  1.75  2-3   98.00 See Actual Ball
18.Ebonite  Clash             15 03  2.75  2-3    75.00 See Actual Ball
19.Ebonite  Playmaker         15 02  2.75  3-4   77.00 See Actual Ball
20.Ebonite  NVD               15 03  1.50  4-5   108.00 See Actual Ball SOLD - PINCHASER

As you can see, some manufactures provide greater profit margins than others. If you are interested, please send email to:
BowlingKnowledge
If you want drilling services you will need to provide your spec's including your PAP and layouts.
Additionally, I will need your complete shipping address including phone to provide accurate shipping prices. I use Fedex to ship as I have a a good discount with them.

I prefer PayPal transactions.

Thanks for your consideration

just wanted to tell you that
I already pay for the Jazz , but I've got nothing.
he didn't sent me any tracking number or any comfirmation at all
he said he was gonna shipped on monday but now he keep slipping up everyday .
And I  send a message to him , it takes him about 2-3 days to response back, and everytime he reply back there always excuse why the shipping delay.

so if you gonna order from him , just becareful

for all you guy that have a good transaction with him, you are lucky
but for me I guess I'm not lucky with this guy.

i'm still waiting for his respone about my C300 JAZZ

Sorry
I paid him on Oct 30th .... Not Wednesday 5th Nov


 




quote:
dude, you paid for the ball on WEDNESDAY. if he told you he's going to ship it on MONDAY, you have no complaint as today is SATURDAY. how can he give you a tracking number on SATURDAY for something he said he'll ship on MONDAY.

BR isn't somebody's life. people work and have families. give him a chance before you start bashing someone.
