New Dynaspeheres Set

[Island Drive]

It'll be interesting if they hold up long term in rooms that have allot of play. If they do, like zar said, a game changer for ball maker$.
I've only seen one ball set of centennials wear out in my lifetime, at 38th and Sheridan in Denver.
It was the first room in to have Gold Crown I's and it was the table Danny Medina played on ALLOT.
They also had two 5x10 snooker tables.
Even Omaha Fats hung out there yrs ago.

Careful! Once upon a time, in a galaxy far away, it was safe to assume all 5 balls are orange, But not anymore...

This is true

Those are much better looking than the ones that have the fugly triangle with rounded corners outline around the numbers.

The Rhodiums I saw at $252 at Seyberts (I didnt spend any time looking for the cheapest price) but that last set of Aramith Tournaments I bought about a year and a half ago for $250, for that price difference I think I will stick with Aramith.

I sprung for the Vanadium from Ft. Worth Billiards. $169 free shipping and no tax was charged.

You sure about the timeline on those A'mith Tournaments? I thought they were well over 300bux 5yrs ago. they were around 250bux in 2009, the year they came out.

the bronze look close to the centennials. as long as a set looks like those i'm in.

other wise they are not pool ball colors.

but i think my sneakers(now called running shoes), should be black or white, not fluorescent orange or yellow as i now see.

Yes, it is correct, Wayfair had a smokin deal on them for some reason. I didnt need them as I already have a nice set but I couldn't pass them up for that price.

Can you really use a one off price as a comp?

As long as they pop up that way, yes.

IMO, a "deal" is not the same as the average going rate, but to each their own.

Wrong. You can't use a one-off sale price as a barometer of what the item retails for. I've bought things that were under priced/mismarked/closed out in the past and sure i got a smokin deal but i also knew that was a one-off deal and not to expect that price all the time.
