doesn't the stripped orange ball in the back imply that the 5 will be orange?

I have not bought any paint yet but as per your recommendation I was going to go for a semi-gloss enamel of some sort. I will take all the aprons off, but was hoping to sand-in-place the legs and stretcher. I’ve seen some really impressive results using a roller and would probably do that vs...

I am planning on repainting my '64 GC1 to the classic white color and I had one question: Is it absolutely necessary to sand all the old paint off i.e. sand to the wood before applying the new paint? To me it seems you would still get good adhesion to the base layer of old paint with only a...

The guy lives in the southern Denver metro area. By coincidence I bought something from him on craigslist unrelated to pool but we got talking. He said he was retired but still selling off some old stock; sold most of his high end equipment etc. It's possible I have an email, but I need to do...

I confirmed with the people at seyberts that this was due to a dimension typo on their end, probably leading to an outrageously sized box for shipping. This has been resolved. updated OP

glad it is not systemic and just tied to some specific items. i will update my original post to include that info for posterity's sake

there is something going on specifically with that rhodium cue ball i was trying to get. When i swap it to the palladium version, shipping is only $12. I prefer the triangles on the vanadium vs the "rotors" but not that much more. I will reach out and see if its something that can be resolved.

Mostly just at home. When I do go out to play GK, Felt or wynkoop (for casual playing) are where I end up. I live 1/2 mile from GK

I was able to replicate this when I added only the predator cue ball to my cart. The dynasphere cue ball alone was still ~$30 to ship… something definitely doesn’t add up. Maybe they are drop shipping from Asia or something?

For the naysayers

Nope… ground to Denver CO guaranteed by Thursday. 🙄 what a joke

Was going to buy a few small items from seyberts and was astounded buy the shipping charges. The cheapest shipping option cost more than everything else. Is this normal? Do they really try to push the $99+ free shipping deal or what? update: I found that the dynasphere rhodium cue ball was...

I had always been enamored with the retro styling of the aramith continental balls but was dismayed to find out that the printing on them was raised and textured enough to cause substantial cling in play. After doing a little digging and finding a small comment thread in a YouTube video about...

im actually thinking more about danish pin billiards that is played on a pocketed table to begin with. in this case the donuts would be totally underneath the pin so this is probably a good option for me.

that was my next guess as to a viable solution. thanks!
