Aramith Premier Pool Cue Replacement Ball 2 1/4" - Choose Your Ball Number (#8)

As advertised and on time.

unlike cheaper 8 balls, this one doesn't have an almost imperceptible raised edge around the number that catches on the steel rollers in my CST (now x-keys) trackball. would buy again.

I received my ball and on first inspection it looked very nice. But since I'm not using this to play pool, but for an art project and need to be perfect in every way, I noticed the center white cylinder is not actually centered but tilted quite a bit. The way this ball is constructed is there is a central white cylinder that the eights are embedded into which runs all the way through the black part. Most people probably wouldn't care, but the whole reason I purchased this ball was because it's supposed to be "the best", and to have the white cylinder "tilted", when the cheap ones are dead center, I'm left disappointed.

I bought this as a present for someone and I'm very disappointed because in the description it states that the pool ball comes in its original box but it came in a plastic bag instead.

Perfect for official or recreational use.
