    Quoted from bigd1979:

    I ordered the super shiny ones from pinball wizard bc i have lots of games with magnets and they are carbon core. Received my order very quickly and they are very nice and shiney. Price was good also bc i ordered 50 which gave a 25 percent discount. Highly recommend since pinball life dont seem to have stock anymore of these.

    You happy with these super shiny from pinball wizard?

    I need 20 good quality carbon core balls for my magnet games.

    Finally got around to opening my pkg of 10 g10 balls from ball baron.

    Wow are they nice, I hope he finds a way to come up with more of these!

    Quoted from bigd1979:

    Yes they are very very nice and play very fast .... no issues in my dile with 5 magnets.

    You using them in non magnetic games as well or are some of the other makes a bit better?

    Trying to make a decision on what to buy in bulk to swap all my machines out at the same time.

    Quoted from FatPanda:

    I would imagine that if they are suitable on games with magnets, that non-magnetic games would have no problems either.

    I figured, just wasn't sure if there were any other differences such as weight or density of the ball being carbon core that would be different than say a std steel ball.

    Quoted from mrgregb123:

    Carbon steel balls are not nearly as shiny as chrome steel balls and tarnish more easily. I suggest only using carbon balls in games with magnets and take advantage of chrome's better look for games without them. I use chrome in all my games, even those with magnets, and haven't experienced problems. Your mileage may vary.

    I bought some g10 balls from ball baron that are very nice. Just didn't have enough to cover all my machines so I'm looking for the next best thing. Only games with magnets are Rolling Stones LE and Aerosmith.
