Ace Tennis Arrived - Page 2

Wow. And I thought Elegance was bad. This stuff is pure garbage. I will report back after I finish, but six boxes in I can't believe how bad it is.

I ended up pulling a John McEnroe autographed tennis ball. Not too bad! (The configuration of the boxes, though, with loose cards thrown in w/toploaders, is amateurish at best.)

Opened two cases and agree this was a stinker. Got 3 autoraphed balls - Laver, Davenport and Murphy Jensen which he inscribed FOC 93.

Other autos did include Kournikova, Bud Collins, Tracy Austin and Bjorn Borg. I did get some Sharapova game used but all one color.

The biggest thing I came to realize is just how few tennis players I have heard of.

Oh well, maybe the Jimmy Arias and John Lloyd autos will get back me back to break-even. If not, I can repackage the 27 (combined) balls that I received from the Cincinnati and Toronto 07 tournaments.

Have an nice weekend!

That sounds like a good break actually.

Besides the awful way the singles are inserted, the worst part of this product is the lame event-used tennis ball gimmick. I am seriously thinking about taking them out of the ball cases and just playing with them the next time I play tennis. They should have put the names of the players who played in that particular game or something. As it is, it is feeble.

Is this the same product that Chris says is "Live 9/05"? If so, how did you get it that early?

His original live day was something like 8/29 or 8/25. If anyone wants to see the extremely horrible autos in here, go to the bay, id is baycop, listed them all and only 1 has a bid!!!! This was absolutely disgusting and ACE tennis should get a whole lot of flak from everyone. I am actually going to list the rest of the base/rookies/gu shortly, with a start bid just enough to cover the listing. If my ankles didn't hurt I would also take the balls out and use them but my dog will appreciate them.
