Anybody have any idea where I can get one of those CBs? I've searched all over and can't find any place that sells them, they are all out of stock. Manning's told me it would be September before they have any more.

p.s. PLEASE, the same idiots that always make their stupid comments just stay out of this.

I was going to tell you who had them in stock, but you seem so hostile that I am not sure I want them dealing with you right now.
Maybe by tomorrow you will have calmed down and we can talk again.
 
Aramith has probably been busy with the new set they are coming out with. No time to mix up Super Pro resin for Predator.
Maybe just get the Duramith cue ball?

Last year when I wanted the black you couldn’t get them so I bought the Arcos2 triangle CB. I like it

I recently searched and couldn’t find one and wound up buying the black measles ball instead.

A few places even accepted my order and then canceled when it turned out they didn’t have any stock.

Yes.

I have both, and don't notice much difference between them, to be honest. The triangles are pleasing to my eye though, and given the chance, I usually play with that one.

I did the same thing and now it’s part of my collection of cue balls along with several red dot measles balls.
The Aramith Black Dot Measles is the version I like the best and play with mostly. I have two of them & rotate.
 
When looking around I see some advertised as Arcos II and others as Arcos II reserve.. is there a difference?
 
I seldom play the Predator cue ball and it was sparingly used too. I purchased it because I couldn’t get the
Aramith Black Dot Measle Ball. Son of a gun, shortly after it arrives, I get notified by Seybert’s the Black Dot
Cue balls were in stock so I bought two of them. I also have 3 Red Dot Aramith Measle cue balls. I always have
a backup, even with my Centennial pool balls and cues which I have more than needed. Nonetheless, when I play,
when the cue ball gets dirty and if you play with good chalk it stays pretty clean, nonetheless I swap out the cue
ball. The Arcos is a cool cue ball design and I’d like to get another as backup just like with my other cue balls. The
pool hall where I am a member, Sierra Billiards, cleans pool balls for free even though I have a BallStar. Playing with
clean pool balls, especially cue balls, makes the game just a little more appealing and at least for me, also satisfying.

What are the playing differences between all 3 balls (red measles, black measles and arcos)?

Let me get back with you. I’ll try all three balls next time at the pool hall side by side playing actual games.
To answer you right now when I mainly play with the Black Dot Measle Ball would be only a recollection of
past usage. I haven’t even played with the Predator Arcos II cue ball this year so commenting at the moment
about any difference, other than the design appearance, would really not be very useful nor meaningful input.
 
I have really been enjoying the Diamond Blue Dot measles ball. It's made by Aramith but has a Diamond logo and it's blue.

Plays as well as my Arcos II CB and more importantly has the same sound on ball contact.

I think it's more because your post quality and topics seem to invite the comments.

Likely because they are both made from the super pro resin.
 
And of course the Predator ball is $15 more than the Diamond ball...

Really hoping to be able to try out a Dynaspheres Rhodium black triangle cue ball. I just ordered a sent of Dynaspheres Bronze on Amazon. Do we know who is the seller / dealer for the below listing (there is no email listing for the Contact Seller option)?

I just ordered a black measle cue ball to check it out. I wanted to order the Dynasphere version, but I can't find any.
