eBay idiot, or not?

Recommended Posts

Not an idiot per say, however, some things to consider:

* $26 shipping charge is outrageous

* Fury is no longer in business, so no warrantee

* The Payback stick wasn't ever released, right? So, retail $199? For a Fury stick? Somehow.... not thinking so....

* $144 for that is setting the bar a bit too high....

* No mention on whether it's left or right (pic shows left)

* no mention or picture of what kind of curve it is

side question (an honest one) - do they really make a Jr stick in a 90 flex?:

As far as I know, Fury is absolutely still in business. The rep came in the shop just a couple weeks ago showing the new product lines, and leaving some sticks to try out. Of course, I didn't get one of the freebies! :(

Oh well, a free Dolomite OPS beats any Fury OPS!

Was Paul still the rep? He's a nice guy but I usually talked to keith or scotty whenever we needed something.

haha this one is funny, because in the description he says this - "NHL Pro stock game issued to the Detroit Red Wings"

And THEN, goes on to say this - "never seen the ice it is brand new" :blink:

Your point? It says game issued not game used

Ah right, I didn't even noticed it said "issued", I thought it said "used". I did make the post as soon as I got to work this morning so you can cut me some slack.

To be quite honest, I couldn't remember for the life of me. He seemed like a pretty nice guy though. I'm sure Peter would remeber.

Most likely Paul, he's the rep for us too and we're just across the river from you. Real nice guy. Hope he comes out of it ok.

Yes, it was Paul. I have known him for a long time. His brother John finally got let go by Mistech a few months ago. This is a tough business to be in from the rep side. Add in today's economy and remember, these guys get paid on what is shipped/invoiced/paid, not how many orders they write. It has never been as easy as it looks or you think it may be, especially these days.

Back to topic - these are not pro stock, not even "Columbus" colors as advertised -

To be fair, he never says "pro stock" he says "pro". Seeing as how the gloves are SyNergy Pro model, he has a point. Also, while they are not "custom" in the sense that they were made specifically for your hand, all the SyNergy Pro gloves come out of a custom color program.

The only real issue is whether they truly are Columbus or not.

I just bought 4 pairs, it seemed like a steal!... :D

That guy bought a pair of old skates from me this past winter

Easton GX 9500

Just in case anyone has huge hands. And if Drewhunz or TBLfan is looking for more gloves to add to their collection.

So 14.5 is now huge?

Only if you're a tiny guy
