Why so expensive?
« on: November 01, 2005, 10:41:12 PM »
Why is the Frankie May so much more expensive than the rest of the lineup?  It seems to me, that production cost are approx the same for each ball.

Andrew--Maybe Jason will pipe in here. The AMB & Gryphon lines are Visionary's  high end and the Gargoyle line lower end.  About the same as most ball mfgs.  G-3 and Frankie May are the two highest $ balls Visionary has in their line-up.  Still way cheaper than most other mfg.s high end balls.

From what the catalog says the G-3 and the Frankie are the "high end" balls
While the AMB's are the mid/upper mid, and the gargoyles are low end.

I could almost picture them droping the frankie, and G-3 when the immortal comes out and just have the 3 lines
