Matt, That is an absolutely ridiculous price to ask for that ball! Please people, don't give this kid that kind of money for a discontinued bowling ball.

If you're gonna come here and try to fetch $80-100+ or more for a ball than anyone else has for this ball over the past 18 months, you should, at the very least, include countless high resolution photos of this magical orb to substantiate the primary reason your price disparity...or are we just supposed to take your word?

Why would anyone pay $220 for a ball that wasn't that good anyway?? Just because its a certain color. That is the dumbest comment I have seen in awhile..
 
There are much better newer release balls for $100 less..

Come on now guys, with more red than green and black the asking price should be $320!!

It's much better being red and green than blue!  Blue balls suck the most!!!


Balls in the bag and order they come out:
#1/2 Nano and Anarchy #3- Virtual Energy   #4- Gravity Shift #5- Big Hit (spare and really dry)
#6- Teal Rhino Pro (oldie but a goodie)

I do believe that particular color scheme was a blem. Doesn't mean it is bad. That ball rolls very well for me.

lol you guys can laugh all you want but thats why your all nobody's lol its proven that darker colored ball roll earlier than lighter colored balls...hence having more red in it the ball will be slightly more skid flippy than say one with a lot more green or black in it...also another example would be the columbia 300 burst...the ones with a ton of silver in them are much more skid flippy than the ones with more red and black...also the silver/black freeze is another example...it was much more rolly thn the other colors of freeze's...but i guess Patrick Allen is crazy too since he collects 2nd dimensions with more red in them.....hmmmm guess that makes him a donkey lol hes only the most talented lefty on the planet...no biggie...btw its already sold for $200..i did get talked down a bit and the buyer was a previously exempt player...the ball wasnt meant to be sold to typical house bowlers who happen to post on here who dont have a clue...oh and for a ball that is "discontinued"...that means its hard to find...so people who actually did like the ball will pay $$$ for it.

I don't know Matt personally, but I've heard his name around the junior bowling circuit. a lot. I've also heard the words second dimension around the high level bowling circuit. a lot. I may not agree with his attitude in his posts on here, but whatever. I know people that would have paid 200 dollars for a NIB gamebreaker before it was re-launched, and I know people that a few years down the road will probably pay 200 dollars for a NIB second dimension. So it's a high asking price, but its a free market right? If there is something special about the color that he thinks will make it roll better, and can find a buyer who thinks likewise, then even more power to him. I'm not sure I buy into it, but I won't rule it out either.
Glad you were able to find a buyer Matt.

In fact the reason I even clicked on this topic is I know a person who would probably consider spending a bit less than $200 on a NIB second dimension.

 Matt what's the pin on that burst?  Most likely I'll take that off your hands.

You came on here, posted a ball for sale, asking for nearly $100 more than can be considered, "Normal", gave no reason to explain the HUGE difference in retail pricing, provided exactly ZERO pictures to even hint of the ball's supposed significance, and drop a few names in response to a few people-this nobody included-and you were surprised?  If this IS a ball of historic significance, and sought after moreso than the William/Kate wedding night video footage, why offer us peasants a ball of this nature when there should be a grocery list of bowling's hierarchy chomping at the bit to buy it?  Am I disappointed you sold it? Not at all. Do I question the manner in which it was done?  Yes.  Do I wonder what could possibly make this ball $100 more than countless orbs manufactured in or out of the state of Utah than can be drilled or surfaced to achieve similar, if not exact, reaction?  Absolutely. ESPECIALLY by those people a heckuva lot further up the food chain than us worthless chuds.

Perfect comments '230'! The inflated egos of these young bowlers never cease to amaze me. Lord forbid we have not all been exempt tour players. We low-life, 'nobody's' have lots of nerve questioning any of these bowling Gods.

pearlmonroe, I am in NO WAY questioning the guy's talent or ability to throw the rock.  You don't bowl with SVSU unless you're blessed with some skill.  You don't have 30 300's before you can legally have a drink without a great deal of physical talent.  And they don't pluck youngsters from your local Saturday morning leagues for Junior Team USA, either.  I'm just questioning the manner in which the ball was listed.  If I was trying to sell a new Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 for $112,500, I wouldn't go to www.lovemyhemi.org and post a thread, "Corvette for sale: $112,500 OBO" without trying to explain my listing.  Am I ignorant for not knowing of this strange phenomenon of the proper colored 2D's?  Appears so.  If someone's willing to pay the kind of money he's trying to fetch, more power to 'em.  But I know there's a LOT of balls out there that a bowler will be able to obtain the ball reaction this ball would provide for a lot less money.

Look, Im not egotsitical in any way. If fact if you ask anyone who knows me I'm very humble about my talent/knowledge of the sport. I know a "normal" second dimension is only worth maybe $130 shipped. But if you question the post the ask me why it is priced so high and when I give you an answer dont write "LMAO" or "ROTFLMAO". Just say, "thanks, not interested". It is a known fact by a lot of tournament bowlers about this ball, that the ones with more red in the color scheme are slightly more skid flippy then the ones with more of the other colors. This gives the bowler a lot more options with the type of surface the can put on the ball. If they wanna keep it as a 3 ball or 4 ball or take it to 2000 or 1000 grit and make it another option of fresh. The ball reaction is just more versatile. I also dont have a way of sending pictures. If youre ever interested in anything I sell and want pictures I can text them to you.  

 

My prices are otherwise fair on anyting I will sell on here. I recently even sold 3 V2 sandeds to a friend NIB for $100 a piece. Find someone else who would sell them for that cheap. Once again I apologize if I jumped down anyones throat but it pisses me off when people question something when they really dont know what theyre talking about.

 

Also, Louis...I have 2 Diff Bursts. Id rather trade then sell.....if possible...text me if interested.

Honestly, Matt, you do not need to apologize to me or anyone else.  
 
You received (within earshot) of what you had hoped for the ball.
 
I openly questioned whether it was a typo and, as far as I'm concerned, couldn't have been much more incorrect.  My only gripe was how the post/thread was originated.  Since I had no interest in the ball, I should have just kept my mouth shut.  This, once again, is my fault.

I am sure that you are an amazing bowler, and am glad to hear that your ego is not inflated. However, you chose to respond by calling us 'typical house bowlers', nobody's, that have no clue. I am also pleased for you that you were able to turn a nice profit on the 2D. Look forward to seeing you bowl on ESPN one day soon.
