We were bowling recently and the ball came back chipped. The ball is at least 10 years old, but we only actually were in a league for 3 years, so it was not heavily used for the entire life span.
The alley is offering us a used alley ball as a replacement and we think that is not sufficient, our ball was in excellent condition and those balls are dinged from daily use.
We are trying to negotiate something better from the manager, but are not sure what is reasonable. We have thought about negotiating a discount toward the purchase of a new ball, but how do we know what is reasonable? Should we ask to purchase one at cost?
Or is there something else we haven't thought about?
Any ideas appreciated!!!
