Do you guys know where I can get these?
« on: January 18, 2006, 03:03:39 PM »
I was at an alley when I seen a guy with two of these ball bags that are very small and are clear.  There tote bags but I couldn't see the brand name.  One of the bags had a small spot for shoes and the other didn't have any xtra space.  It's like the 2 balls fit perfectly into the bag.  I have never seen a ball bag like this.

Does anyone know what i'm talking about?  If so where can I find ball bags like that.  He had two of them and two balls in each bag.  What is really great about these bags is they don't take up much room.  Very small and compact.  I would rather have those than my 4 ball roller bag.

Are they completely clear? I have tote made by Vise that has a clear top. I think the new Brunswicks also have a clear top.

Yes they were clear on the sides and top.  I could see both balls in each tote clearly(no pun intended).  I'm telling you I would love a couple of these.  This would be a lot easier to carry 4 balls around because of ho compact they were.  My 4 ball bag is a pain in the but sometimes because of how big it is.  I know it has wheels but getting it in and out of the truck and in and out of the house is a pain.  I have to go down a flight of stairs.

No those are not it at all.  In fact those loof bigger and less compact than what i'm talking about.  

Does anyone know where I can look at bags from a couple of years back.  Maybe these were from 5 or 6 years ago?  I don't know because I just got backk into bowling about 3 years ago and before that I had a 7 year layoff.

I know this bag isn't from this years line or last years.  How can I find out what type of bags ebonite had 5 years ago.  Is there a way to pull up there line from 5 years ago?  I'm having trouble doing it on the internet search.

Maybe you could go back to the alley on the same day/time, if the guy was in a league.  Just ask him.  If it was just open bowling, I don't know.

last year Storm had 2 ball totes with clear tops as well, I sold several of the Strom & Vise bags with clear tops or sides.

The proshop at my center has a tote that looks like a clear box with aluminum edges, and a hard black plastic handle on top.  Reminds me of a cosmetics case. I'll check there on monday night.

Why don't you use a regular fabric 2 ball tote?  They make them to just fit 2 balls.  I use them for the Nationals when I have to ship the balls, I can fit two of them between the ball boxes when packing a 4 ball shipping box.

I'm going to the alley tonight for a king of the hill and will see if this guy is there.  If so I will find out when he bought this tote and if I can buy it from him.

If you want to see what Ebonite was selling that is no longer on their web site you can try this:
1. Go to www.archive.org
2. type www.ebonite.com in the WayBack Machine box (or go to http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.ebonite.com)
3. Click the "Take Me Back" button
4. Click through the links that are listed
