I have seen "refurbished" skeeballs on ebay for $200. I have a couple sets of wooden balls that I would like to refurbish, does anyone have any tips on doing this?
 
I've seen those also. It looks like a light sanding and some sort of varnish.
 
You might call your local bowling supply stores or pro shops. They have special tumblers for synthetic balls, so maybe they have special settings or tools for the wooden balls.

When I was checking my local shops out for help on restoring 4" Atari trackballs, several asked me about skeeballs and indicated that they also worked on them for customers.
