    I might have to give the old plastic swivel a try, but I search for some vintage ball hook swivel found one I'll try it out.

    Hi fingers, should really give up trying to buy any new balls, only hassle!!!!
    I sent the two adidas bags back, got refund, waiting for another heritage ball.
    However, I came across this and thought of you:!
    Did you know Lonsdale have a US website and the gear is all slightly different. I thought this bag looked cool - different!!!!

    Fair enough. More bearings is good then. Hmmmm... I ordered a ball from Protec and they sent me the wrong size.... but they only do one swivel right?!! Maybe I'll give it a try. Haven't really given yours a good shot yet as still need to glue in. Will be a three swivel girl then!!

    Oh yes! Bit pricey though! What do you think of the Everlast one? Is that what you've got? I could get that from here for quite a few less pounds:

    bloody 'ell!!!
    Sugar Rays on ebay have sent me the wrong ball AGAIN! The PU artificial leather version.
    What are they like????!!!

    Anyway, I had a go on it, it's RUBBISH, looks cheap and I can't think of anything good to say about it. Groan......

    This is unbelievable!!

    Since I joined the forum I've tried to acquire a few new speedballs and had a bit of trouble as you know! Well, this is classic. I sold a few things on ebay, so with a bit of Paypal funds I decided to splash out on a leather Adidas striking ball - always wanted to compare this with my peanut one. Anyway it came yesterday and when I inflated it - it was a peanut ball, the same shape as I've already got. Oh no not again.

    The seller has a 'Boxing and Fitness' shop on ebay and when I checked he only sells 'striking balls' so not a good omen. I emailed him about the problem and ok, I'm sending it back hopefully for a replacement...... but GUESS WHAT - his email address is 'sales@sugarrays' !!!!!!


    Will this have a happy ending? Once again, paid me cash, no ball!!!!
