Just want all to be aware just because you get to pay the new price doesn't mean you are getting the newest technology.

Maybe for some, this is a concern. For me, considering the number of balls I've hit into various water hazards around here, $55 a dozen would be a huge excess.
Along those lines, though...we do play a lot of tennis and there was a pretty significant tennis ball shortage that only recently has become somewhat alleviated. Along with the shortage were the inevitable hugely inflated prices, often on brands that I've never seen before. Lots of name-brand balls available now, but the prices are still significantly higher than pre-shortage.
