For the collector or serious thrower. Rare prototype '08 888 first to be upgraded to Type 7075 aluminum;  
Rarely used, like new, never dinged, never polished still has the original silicone responce.  
Wing Cut hybrid/ceramic C size main bearing - ABEC9. The bearing itself would have to sell for over $50 ea. dew to cost.  
Terrapin X dry hubstack bearings.  
Plays great, no vibe. Bearing fits perfect, no tool required.  
Got it in late '07 no box. Comes in the BC case I kept it in.  
I doubt you will ever see another…
