So far I thought it is: be happy if it comes in a box 🙃😄

The line is curved, and the box is from Amarith

They look really nice! And cleaning was the first thing I did as well. I cleaned them over 1h by hand with ball restorer and ball cleaner by Aramith. Only then I checked them carefully, to judge them in the best condition I can achieve for them 🙂

I am more of a player, but not on a professional level. I tried them yesterday and did not see any big problems. So I will just keep them, and maybe replace the 3 worst balls, if I can find replacements somewhere 🙂

I did specifically ask for scratches or damages, and the answer was clearly only scratches. I don’t know what can be misinterpreted in my question. And of course I expected used balls with signs of playwear. I would have been absolutely fine with that. I am not sure if they are rare, as they...

I paid 50,- for them. But the damages were not on the listing pictures and the descreption was ‚condition see pictures‘. As follows: I could not see any damage in there, but asked before buying to be sure. So he replied that he checked every ball and they only have minor surface scratches...

I received Centennials today, which were sold as ‚with small scratches because they are vintage‘. Would this still be acceptable under this description? And what would these be worth? They are the newer Aramith ones, so not very collectable either, even though they are old… Am I a bit too...

I need to find some subtitles for that, my knowledge of Italien consists of maybe 4 words 😄

Another thing I got, are these old Elefant balls. Could not find any information about them at all. I thought they are old Boccette balls. But newer ones are 59mm and these are about 57mm

I just received the balls today. They came from Italy, if this may help. So maybe they are indeed for a local 5-pin game or something like Goriziana… They came in a normal Aramith carom package The red has 5 white dots on one side, and the Saluc logo on the back side

I thought it is maybe for some game of carom, where the red is worth 5 points. Aramith does some carom balls for Korean carom with numbers on, just not in this dice pattern. And they did their 5-Ball game as well with carom sized balls. But that’s a guess as well 🙃

I found a set of Aramith Carambol balls. They are all normal colours - white, yellow, red. Except the red has this 5 dot dice pattern. I have never seen that before, is this anything special? And are they worth getting just for that single ball? Thanks for any help 😊

Would be quite interesting to know, who actually makes them 😄 Are there many factories in China for pool balls? Or is there only maybe 1-2 making balls for all this fake companies (Konnlien, Yiniuren, Painas Fai,… and so forth)?

I thought so, but it was just a guess on the used logo. They still play fine, and I like their look, so I am quite happy with them. And they were not too expensive as well anyway :)

I really don't know, they are Chinese no-name brands. Can I assume though, this logo means Dynasphere?!
