Yeah you can stack bowling balls on top of each other very carefully on the thumbholes. I have gotten them to go 4-5 high without falling over. Alley balls work best for this.
I am really trying to figure out what you need a display cup for anyway? If you can't come up with $4 for it, which would be better spent on bowling anyway, what is the point?

I have a ring in my bag that I use. It came from a cheap scarf I bought for my wife at Target. It works perfect to keep a ball in place. A win win for me.

This turned into a silly thread. Just watch someone win a new ball with a post in this one LOL

Why would someone need a ball cup (other than to display a ball)?
Some bowlers carry a couple in their bag to use as extra places to set balls at the lanes. Like at a tournament when the ball return is full and they want to have a spare/other ball out.
Having one to set your ball on while you clean it at the table or work on the thumb or finger holes (taping , gluing etc).
if you have several balls at home, they make it easier to shelf store the balls.
Also it's better than setting balls directly on a hard floor so they don't develope a flat spot. ( though you should rotate balls setting on cups, as they can dent the ball during long term storage also.)

I was looking for a display cup to store on my dresser. To use go help in cleaning and polishing too.
Right now I am using a custard dish.

Seriously though, I clean my bowling ball with a cleaner every night I bowl without a bowling ball display cup. I first do the non thumb hole side, then do the thumb hole side. I do keep use a display cup, since I do other ball maintenance stuff, like change finger inserts, widen thumb holes, etc., but not needed when cleaning a ball.
Innovative sells plastic cups for $0.90. I'm sure you'll pay more for shipping though.
