I thought only Lane #1 balls go for this much...Not Storm too.

Keep in mind that US issue balls in Europe and Asia start at a much higher price even brand new. I think it's at least $100 added on to whatever the price would be for a ball in the US.

It IS next year!

it is literally the BEST ball... ever!

ok so that would make it a $300 ball? $400 for any ball is absolutely nuts.

But noone will pay that money for an old Storm Fired Up - even in Europe...
And I live here...

I thought the fire storm was best ever or the Bolt peral
some one will pay but just have to see if there is a needing person

But, but, but he's already had offers nearly twice the asking price, so can't you guys see how GREAT this deal is?
I mean WOW, an '06 batch FiredUp that was saved for a couple of guys who don't want it and can't use it can be your for just $300-$400.
Really, if people wouldn't give $150 for them when they were new on the market, why would they give over twice that much for one now?
Oh yeah, I forgot, it's the best ball EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I''m pretty sure the way it works is like this....
What does a top end ball cost in most good pro shops around the U.S? $225 depending where you go? For that $225 it includes the sales tax, drilling and grips and slug? In the U.K a top end ball out the door from the top pro shops will cost around £225. £225 is around $375.
So look at it this way.......Fired Up when it first came out, $170 from most good pro shops out the door in the U.S? In the U.K They cost £170 ($280 approx) so now 3 years later they are only a little more than there price? In the U.K they play on half the amount of oil the U.S has and the Fired Up was a very popular ball, the main supplier even imported the asian release "fired up 2".
Lillen and Gee - I know Lillen you are from Sweden and Gee I''m not sure but, Lillen I bowl in Sweden regularly at supersixxxxxx events and I was in a pro shop in Gothenburg and saw Virtual Gravitys out the door for 3,000sek which is around $500? Correct me if im wrong but you guys in scandinavia pay top money for balls?
