    Ordered replacement balls for my BKSOR and AC⚡️DC figuring with all the multiballs that happen, they do a lot of bashing into each other.

    Ordered balls from pinball life and was disappointed as soon as I opened the bag and saw how cloudy/matte they were. Sure enough, comparing them to my well used AC⚡️DC balls, they are not nearly as shiny and nice looking.

    Anyone have a go to source for quality pinballs?

    In pic attached, my old pinballs on the right at the new PBL ones on the left.

    Thanks!

    Interestingly, I checked back in my old emails and the nice shiny ones that actually look better in the photo, even after being used for hundreds and hundreds of games, were ALSO pinball life’s! Guess whoever they source from has changed

    Interesting that the ball baron ninja balls have a warning about magnets. Ugh. Could be bad with BKSOR with the magnasave

    Well, I ordered Ninjas for my AC⚡️DC and regular chromes for black knight sword of rage, given the magma save

    Crap. I ordered ninjas for my AC⚡️DC and regular chrome for BKSOR thinking that those wouldn’t have the magnet issues (since it’s the Ninja page that specifically says they have magnet issues). Now it sounds like all of the chrome balls will have issues and I should have gotten carbon steel for BKSOR?
