Think I got one drilled up this year and it was an awesome hook. Now i got alot of balls this year probably around 30 or so used but I'm always getting one thing and trading it for another or selling it. So I only have now is 9 but usually keep them in rotation. lol

NIB in 2007? probably less than 5. in previous years, its been about 15. 2008 will probably be very similar to 2007 though...
-
I added 3, 1 is undrilled and will remain so until I need to trade something out. My aquisitions were:
Gamebreaker - through a Demo Days
Blue Dot - I couldn't release my Storm Football correctly to save my life
Bash (Undrilled) - through a WWPB ProAm

And yeah, I do know it all.. I don't spend 30+ hours a week learning more about bowling for my heatlh... I do it so I know more than all of you.. which I do. (besides the random few that are staffers/work in the bowling business.. which that population is decreasing little by little)
-
ZERO! as a matter of fact...I do not own a bowling ball with the USBC star stamped on it...I think the last NIB ball I bought was out at Corpus Christi at Nationals when Ebonite was basically giving balls away

So...30, and I actually drilled 20 of those, the rest are sitting in my room. Of these, I paid full price for a grand total of 3, and full price for me is just above cost. All the others were discontinued blowouts, trades, replacements, or ebay specials.

I can't say exactly how many. I just don't keep track. I'd guess 15 - 20 NIB and 5 - 10 used. Not even counting those I bought for other people.

I've read all these responses and I'm telling you guys .. you are all missing out .. the new AMF balls are going cheap and you're getting a BIG BANG for your BUCK! I'm not reluctant to try any company and I love the LevRG .. but there is no better deal out there right now that beats the HEIST and Night Hawk Pearl.

I forgot one NIB. As a part of being a new member of the WWPB I got an Ebonite ball of my choice. So either I paid $100 to join and got a free Total NV or I paid $100 for the ball and free membership to the WWPB. Either way I acquired 4 balls in 2007.

Just read another posting on BR where starting Jan 2008 Ebonite has set a minimum price for the Pro Shops to sell Ebonite balls. Thoughts were that this was the beginning of PRICE FIXING for all ball manufacturers. Makes me HAPPY that I bought those balls in 2007. Doubt very much that I will be inclined to continue that pace in 2008!
As much as I like bowling ENOUGH is ENOUGH .. looks like the current balls are going to get some action!
ON EDIT: Let's see if the PRO SHOPS take this opportunity to jump the drilling charges!

Well, most of them I get for less than 85 shipped to my door. I recently just started drilling my own stuff up, so its no charge on drilling, and I just resell my equipment basically how much I paid for them.. I know fairly alot of people and when I don't want some of my equipment anymore, I dump it to them and they use it.. I think I only paid 100$ for two items up there.. All were NIB quality as well. I just know some people in the business I guess.

Just read another posting on BR where starting Jan 2008 Ebonite has set a minimum price for the Pro Shops to sell Ebonite balls. Thoughts were that this was the beginning of PRICE FIXING for all ball manufacturers. Makes me HAPPY that I bought those balls in 2007. Doubt very much that I will be inclined to continue that pace in 2008!
As much as I like bowling ENOUGH is ENOUGH .. looks like the current balls are going to get some action!
ON EDIT: Let's see if the PRO SHOPS take this opportunity to jump the drilling charges!

Ebonite's policy suggests a mininum price for the distributors, not the pro shops.
Just so I'm not hijacking the thread, I'll answer the original question.

A better question is with the increased prices on balls this yeah, how many NIB balls will you buy in 2008?

5 i believe. Primal Rage, Apogee, Lane 1 EVO and Nebula, and Formula. I think thats it.

3 in 2007, more than enough:
-Visionary Frankie May Gryphon
-Revolution Renegade (not really new, 7 years old but unpunched)
-Awesome Finish
Additionally, there is a G-3 Gryphon in the pipeline, and I think this will be the last NIB ball for a while, I'd rather reduce my overall arsenal and sell older 2nd drill stuff.
Maybe a new polyester spare ball might come up, my 3 year old Target Zone catches nicks and tracks out easily. Currently I have an eye on the new Ice Storm - it just appeared in Germany and is a hard ball, compared to normal polyester pieces, so I'd give it a try
