I have and had mixed results, when a description is subjective to be expected but generally if you find a good seller/company stick with them.

Yep.
I brought 4 dozen pearl/1 hitter from eBay at the start of last season.
I still have 28 left on top of the 6 dozen new in box ones I have kicking about the house.

And i bet you entered the Mizzy ball testing too!! you are a ball hoarder!!
I bought some grade A Penta's once.. wasnt impressed to be honest, but i think like pbrown said, if you find a good seller stick to them!!

Yep, I'd rather play the same ball all the time so rarely buy new (only for a big comp), rest of the time its Pearl/Mint from trusted sellers, great value

Actually I did.
I went through a process of process of trying all premium balls over a couple of months and settled on the Pro V1 as it was, I felt, best all round.
However, the Mizuno balls hadn't (Aren't) released here yet. If the perform better than the Pro V1, I would have no issue selling off my boxed Pro V1's and repaceing them with Mizunos' offering.
I'm genuinely interested in how they perform againt my current ball.

I have bought some very good pearl/grade A balls and normally been impressed.
I also bought 100 practice grade balls for £15 and they were actually not that bad and were great to practice chipping in the garden etc...
Read the reviews and then make a decision based on that.

LOL you don't have to justify it to me Gareth!!! i wouldn't mind a hit of one, but if my name came out of the hat i would insist it was re-drawn and let someone else have some goodies! (it probably would be anyway!)

I tend to buy 50 or so as & when I need them mainly for playing when it's not a competition & I find them to be very good quality, definitely worth the saving over a brand new box anyway.

My ambition is to get to the stage where I can tell the difference between balls (aside from range rocks)!

I purchased a load of soft feels from a recommended seller, half were good (coloured ones for short game area) the white ones however looked to be refinished as the writing would start to wear mid round. From here on I’ve never purchased lake balls.

Don't use pearl grade A or lake balls as I've had bad experiences with both over the years. Enough cheap unused balls on the market now if cost is an issue and some of the newer balls coming out at the lower end of the market are actually quite good, especially for a winter ball

I’ve bought from eBay, premier lake balls and MailOrderGolf and had no problems thus far. Look at feedback and shop around for price would be my advice. I prefer to play the same ball (any other types I find go in the practice bag or given to PP’s) so I generally buy used Chromesoft/Truvis for practice and crack open new ones for competitions.

I'd guess it was resurrected by someone pushing their own website to sell stuff.
