>Spent about $80 on this one at Dick鈥檚.

OMG!!!!!

There's a huge myth in the USA that good dart equipment has to cost a lot. It's what all the stores and dart shops want the customer to believe. Let me give you a few quick examples to help you better understand.

Here's one of the best dartboards on the market today. On sale for $64.

Because of how heavy a board is we're forced to buy them here in the states. Otherwise I'd steer you towards UK dart shops for everything else. You're new to this but if you want to know "why" then have a read of this short article written by a member here.

To give you a visual example check this out... Target darts released a bunch of new darts yesterday. Here are the actual darts that 16x world champion Phil Taylor uses. The darts are $158 from a popular American dart shop. Here are the same exact darts available from a UK dart shop. As you see, $83 and that before an 8% discount. So $77 actually. HALF the price!

Here one more example. Here's a "house brand" soft tip dart from a popular American shop. $84 right?

This is the SAME EXACT dart available at a popular UK dart shop for $16.67!! 5x less!!! Imagine paying $84 + local tax for a set of darts and then finding out they really cost less than $17. I'd be pissed.

The UK daart shops also have 100's of incredible 90-95% tungsten darts for around $20-$30. They have incredible 95% tungsten darts in the clearance section for as low as $14. So before you buy anything at all make sure you come here and ask us anything. I'm American by the way. I'm as pro America as anyone else but until these US dart shops stop trying to deceive the customers they can go pound sand. I'll send my money elsewhere.

Gladiator 2 BF Deal $44.95 ONE80 Gladiator Dartboard with Top-Grade Sisal and Sword Edge Staple Free Wire Spider for Maximum Scoring Potential and Less Bounce Outs https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LZYM5IO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_tBy4Db9X0JW01

u/counterplex 路 4 pointsr/aiclass

I think the key point to understand is that the continuous doesn't refer to the way you do things but the end state.

In the case of the darts the dart can land on any point on the dart board in a continuous fashion i.e. for any two points on the board the dart can land between them much like between any two numbers on the number line there are is an infinite series of numbers.

In the case of the coin toss the coin will either land heads up or tails up. There is no middle condition. Those are the only two distinct possibilities.

Here's the final point that might help bring those two examples into better contrast. An electronic dart board (see this image at Amazon and use the Zoom buttons to zoom in), which consists of a holey plastic "board" is also discrete because the darts in this game can only land in one of the holes in the board.

I might have confused you further. My apologies.

You guys are a bad influence lol. I had to order a set and get in on this deal. I got in on the soft tip 4 packs but not the steel tip ones so thanks for the info! Also found the same deal on Amazon Canada but restrictions didn't allow to have them shipped to me from Canada. Here's the link for any of you Canadians up North.

RE: The four packs on Amazon from Red Dragon

Mine arrived a few minutes ago as I was leaving the house. Here is what I recieved.. I'd bought two sets.

Three identical pairs and then the two on the left. I won't be able to get them weighed and assembled until tomorrow.

u/yeotajmu 路 2 pointsr/Darts

I just bought a 4 set case on Amazon that has plenty of storage space for flights, and 5 compartments for holding all my shafts and another section for holding my miscellaneous stuff like O-Rings, flight protectors, repair tool etc.

And of course can hold 4 sets of darts.

I got a zapp rubber throw line mat from Amazon in December that is really nice. It was only $49 at the time, but the price has gone up since then.

Great, waiting for the post.
Sadly, I live in Egypt and there are no dart stores here. I depend on the posts to have an opinion before ordering something from Amazon.

I ordered one80 A-24g @ Nov 6th I think it is supposed to arrive next week. Hopefully.

u/deGrubs 路 2 pointsr/Darts

You just need a bigger surround. This may be big enough.

u/DeepFreeze180 路 2 pointsr/DartsTalk

first repointing attempt: https://m.imgur.com/AnF7WhT

I don鈥檛 have a before picture because I am not much of a planner.

The darts are some of the Amazon 24g One80s that have been discussed here before.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XXK2QCS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_rL2QCbC6BQFK7

They came with short silver points Which I got tired of scuffing up constantly so I swapped in some longer gold points from DC clearance corner.

Used the Designa re-pointing tool. Worked very well and seems to be a very firm hold with no Loctite needed.

However I tried another re-pointing immediately afterward with some harrows laser etched points and some V180 Brian Woods darts, and the points fell out almost immediately afterward lol. So I am 1 for 2 and some loctite is on my shopping list.

u/Grimmbles 路 2 pointsr/Darts

When I just wanted a regulation size cheapo board to practice on I ended up with a Viper 777 for ~$50.

It's been fine for me, registers every dart(though I rarely turn it on for practicing) and no more bounce outs than any other board I've used. But it's not great if you want to play with a bunch of friends. Handles 2 people fine but doesn't display everything in perfect detail, like it doesn't show what your individual round score was after all 3 darts. If you just want a cheap full-sized board to practice on it's great, if you want to play all night with friends spend some more money on one of Jake's suggestions.

u/thanatos0967 路 2 pointsr/Darts

Hi folks -

​

u/chuckdeezoo beat me to this question for the day... and instead of creating a new post, I'll just piggyback... or perhaps Robin hood onto his topic. ;-)

​

So the question I have and perhaps, this might help u/chuckdeezoo also...

​

What's the better way to go for Winmau boards? The standard Blade 5 or the Dual Core Blade 5?

​

Winmau Blade 5 is on sale for $65 (US)

​

The Winmau Blade 5 Dual Core is $89 (US)

​

Any thoughts on the difference?

​

Thanks!!

u/Mryan677 路 2 pointsr/Darts

Thanks! I bought a Gladiator II board and those red dragon darts. I was going to get the blade5, but this seemed like a really good deal on the gladiator. Obviously not great darts, but I will use the scoreboard I suppose.

gladiator II

u/cornynibblets 路 2 pointsr/Darts

My buddy and I were also experiencing the same problem. Ended up getting a blade 5 and viper surround from Amazon. I can't recommend them enough.

However, if you don't have the means (or patience) to save money and wait to get a board, I almost bought one of these:
Use the force

The only downside, is the color scheme isn't traditional.
But from what i've heard...they are pretty decent.

Another option is the Viper boards on Amazon Meh!

Although...if you are going to spend $35...you might as well spend $60 and not have to replace for a while longer.

Do yourself a favor - Winner Winner

u/mgg1967 路 2 pointsr/Darts

Haha...I actually just switched points on these darts about 20 minutes ago to 38mm and kinda liking them with these at the moment. But yeah, below are the links on Amazon. NOTE; I got 10 Sets of the 53mm and just know that I measured them and they are actually 51mm in length.
They also have 43mm available on Amazon from the same seller and I included those links also, I got 10 sets of these to try too. Also note that a few of the listings are Free Shipping. And I had to order separately because when I tried to order together they wanted to charge shipping.

u/Murraymurstein 路 2 pointsr/Darts

The big case is my favorite. Holds four full sets but I usually carry two or three sets and extra Robson flights. https://www.amazon.com/Casemaster-Carrying-Numerous-Accessories-Generous/dp/B0002AOS10/ref=mp_s_a_1_1_sspa?keywords=dart+cases+for+multiple+sets&qid=1565052093&s=gateway&sprefix=dart+c&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1

I don鈥檛 remember where the metal case came from, it holds a fully assembled set with normal flights but not Robsons, since they don鈥檛 bend. I use the soft case with the brown badge two to the right for carrying one set. It has a hard plastic insert to hold the darts and keep the flights from bending out of shape. https://www.amazon.com/Casemaster-Plastic-Flexible-Covering-Flights/dp/B003ZYZVS4/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?keywords=dart+master+case&qid=1565052418&s=gateway&sprefix=dart+master&sr=8-3 that鈥檚 a very similar version also made by Casemaster.

u/10noop20goto10 路 1 pointr/woodworking

Looks great!

I highly recommend upgrading to a Blade 5 (or v4) dartboard though. I can see that the spider (metal wires that divide the board into segments (for anyone not familiar) is starting to lift up around the bullseye. This leads to more bounce outs. Once you go with a Blade, it's tough to go back to a the older style boards.

u/presidentnixon 路 1 pointr/GetMotivated

Darts. You can always go for a higher score, try to hit only prime numbers, etc. Put on some music and play darts in your basement. Or find a pub with a cheap or free to play dartboard. You don't have to talk to anyone if you don't want to, you don't even need to buy a bunch of drinks. Its cheap to start playing, too. Entry level darts are about $15 bucks, and if you want to play at home, you can buy this or something like it for less than $50.

I agree with all others about getting darts across the pond. If you dont want to do that, I have these https://amzn.com/B01LZMUCXS and they are in your price range. This cheaper than you can get them from dartscorner.

I just ordered the tempest from the UK as it was roughly the same price. I also the in a set of Sky Pro's for kicks ;D.

Really want that 4 pack deal though! And I know it's a gamble, but I really like the "torpedo" style RD's. They're like $30 on amazon.com..

Found this one but it doesn't even come close design wise.

u/disgustipated 路 1 pointr/Darts

You can cover the plywood with cork or felt, or padding and cloth... be creative - if you drink lots of wine then you already have the cork. :)

I purchased one of these - yeah it was $50 and I could have made one cheaper, but for me it was worth it to just buy the damn thing and forget about it.

u/imdaterminator 路 1 pointr/Darts

There鈥檚 bound to be Black Friday deals on something over the next 2 days...so far there鈥檚 this One80 Gladiator II for $45, and I read somewhere that the Winmau Blade 5 was $28 last year during Black Friday??

Hold out for just a bit, it could be worth ur while

u/leftai2000 路 1 pointr/Darts

No cabinet for me! I'm currently using a backboard, similar to this: https://www.amazon.com/Viper-Framed-Dartboard-Backboard-Mahogany/dp/B002LF8TPU/ref=sr_1_4?s=leisure-sports-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1523773261&sr=1-4&keywords=dartboards. It took me more tries than I want to admit to to get it right, but it's fine. What I'll do next is get a 4 X 8 ft piece of fiberboard, mount my new board (I have a new One80 Gladiator II waiting), and build a raised oche that's mounted to the fiberboard with hinges, and make my own surround with foam from a local store. Sounds like a lot of work, but it is easier than you'd think.
