Tonight...I noticed a spare ball in the shop..its a storm clear golf ball..its been there forever..long as I can remember..so just for shits and giggles I went look at it and realized why it had been there so long...I looked at the ball..between the ball and the clear...was a speck of pocket lent...yup..pocket lent within the clear...lol..nothing major..but it has kept the ball from being sold for a long time..I seen one of these balls go on ebay for 175 bucks...I have no idea why...but it did..lol...pocket lent..haha

Thats the prices for nm's here. I don't see it as a lot of money for a high end ball.

I have seen prices noticably different around my area for equipment. At one proshop inside the house where I bowl, the price for a No Mercy Beat'n is $235 drilled withought grips or thnumb slug. This pro shop is owned by the lanes and has someone fit/drill the balls. At another pro shop inside a different house, the NMB'n is $180 with grips and slug. Theys till seel Wd's and Maxims for $80+.
