    Default Made an excellent $50.00 Roto Grip Defiant Edge purchase last night

    I purchased a Roto Grip Defiant Edge form a guy at the lanes
    last night for $50.00 and I do know for sure it has less than 2
    games on it total. I will of course have to plug it and re-drill it
    at least I'll have to do the thumb hole anyway to fit me and I'll
    maybe do the finger holes too and maybe change the layout but
    still only $50.00 for an almost brand new Defiant Edge so what
    do you guys/gals think did I make a good purchase or not?

    Oh no. that is a terrible deal. As a matter of fact, I feel so badly for you that I will send you $50USD and relieve you of it immediately. It is the only truly humane thing for me to do...

    Seriously though, I'd say you did well. I was thinking about saving up for one myself, but then I won this Lucid and my wife says no more bowling balls...

    Just tell her they're like shoes and you can never have enough.

    Yeah I know what you mean bill not a lot of friendly customer service
    from that brand but it was too good of a deal to pass on. I'd rather it
    had been a DV8 brand of ball but oh well maybe I'll plug it and sell it
    and get me the new DV8 Nightmare when it is released.
