How Long Has Your Stealth Lasted?

[leafsrule1 0]

if you do tend to break sticks like crazy and your willing to pay for new high performance sticks regulary why not? but if you dont have the money but still want good preformance there are a number of options.

All things considered equal, me too. However, when cost comes into play, if one performs 10% better than another, while the other lasts 40% longer, if the cost is the same, I'll go with what lasts longer.

The Stealths are getting something like $200usd (retail) lately? If you can get 2 110's for that amount and the performance is only slight better with the Stealth, that doesn't seem like such a bad thing considering the cost of these things.

But, that's just me. A 10% performance on my game hardly equates to what it would with Al McInnis or Patrick Elias.

Gee maybe you have a hard time understanding what "COMPLAINING TO A COMPANY TO GET WHAT YOU WANT" is all about. Sometimes you need to BS a little to get somewhere with customer service.

;)

I STILL stand by the fact that CCM Vector sticks are EXTREMELY durable sticks. Much moreso then Easton sticks.

Ok, so fraud is ok when it suits you? what a load of shit.

By the way, I think CCM sticks are more durable than Easton as well.

What the hell are you talking about?! Fraud?

You seriously make NO SENSE.

I sent my stick into CCM, complained about it and they THEMSELVES approved the warranty replacement.

I think the "BS a company to get what you want" is what he was alluding to.

Generally BS means you lie, you said you had to BS to get whatyou want. My point is you bitched to them, now you're bitching about another company and saying the 130 is a more durable stick. That's despite the fact you feel that stick has a "major production flaw." Say or do whatever you want, I don't care.

But maybe if this guy broke a Stealth, he'd get a free ST or SL until a new batch of Stealths was ready to ship out.

As far as I know, that is not the case with Easton.

Anyway, the term "bs" I used too lightly. Basically I felt I needed to let CCM know I was upset. Nobody was returning my phone calls or emails for two weeks.

SO I had to embelish my anger over the topic :)

Capiche?

It can be looked upon as a good or bad thing that you got this CCM deal. It's good they are treating their customers good on returns (not so much contacting them as you said), but its poor that they let a run of sticks THIS bad out. Like I said most companies have a poor run, but not to this extent and not to the pointwhere they stop production for 4 months. It makes me wonder if the V130 was ever "market ready".

You got a defect or you're an idiot with sticks. Don't blame that on the design.

Feel better now that you've insulted another member?

It wasn't meant to be an insult, it's the truth. Idiot might have been the wrong choice of words, but if you respect your equiptment and it doesn't get slashed/isn't defective, there is no way it should break in 2 days.

I agree, I dont think it was market ready yet as well.

But I have full confidence that once I get the stick back from them that the blade will be fixed and I'll have one wicked performance stick with the durability that I'm used to with CCM sticks.
