American golf double value trade in

[garyinderry]

Can't believe someone hasn't worked out how to start off with a beat up ping G5 driver plus £50 cash and turn it into a brand new set of AP2s with a couple of shrewd trades.

Let me know when you do :rofl:

I'm curious how bad a state they'll take irons in.

There are are some terrible 712cb on the bay for £75 which would in theory get £330 in exchange!

 

[PJ87]

If they do go down that route I am sure they have looked at how and why golf bidder are doing so well and try to copy / make it better themselves if they are indeed trying to get a piece of the action.

Could be something thats rolled out to the stores now in the coming months. As you stated with dirty gear on rack and not selling maybe someone up the ladder as took the bull by the horns and plans on making a statement in this market.

That's my guess anyways lol

golf bidder legally have to offer money back under the distance selling goods act

AG would be sold in store so wouldn't need to but still could

They can, and will, deduct money from the guide price for any damage, dings/chips to irons, or if the faces are really badly worn

Mate at work his g25 are worth about £340 he gonna either get taylormade ones that are £350 or he said he will get g25 again £399 I was like really? He said yeah £60 for brand new clubs / grips . I guess makes sense

The other thing to consider & maybe the guys who have took advantage of the offer can tell us, did you buy anything else during your visit? If so, this is another reason for the deal maybe? A loss leader. All the big supermarkets do it & its proven.

You have no intention of buying anything golf related, see the deal & make a visit. Get a deal on a new club and maybe pick up a top, balls, gloves etc whilst you are there. Without the offer, you may not have even bothered going into the store?!

Not me, they're generally quite expensive for consumables and stuff, I've ordered some clothing but only when it's on sale. #reettightyorkshireman

I bought 2 footjoy gloves for £15

I also bought 2 gloves that were on offer but I did need a replacement

This is exactly where they make their money. Get you through the door and most people will buy some tees or a glove whilst their there to stock up.

When things on offer people stock up. I've got unopened tees from the 3 for 2 tee offer as I just needed them at time didn't wnna buy one bag.

their offer last year on Bridgestone e6 balls at 2 boxes for £30 was outstanding. Stocked right up. Have about 8 boxes left

I bought a putter grip that I fancied trying and it lasted 1 round before I took it off again :angry:

So the business plan of arguably the largest golf chain in the uk is to sell bits and bobs on the off chance? 😀
The shops I go in are generally empty and those that are there are usually just window shopping.

Just in from taking advantage of the deal, and also bought some tees and a glove. The tees I needed but I could have waited a month or so for the glove.

Not sure they got the deal right. I traded in a set of irons and bought 2 rescue clubs. The deal says you can't aggregate the trade in but the irons were valued at £300+, and one rescue was £180. I ended up paying £50. Well chuffed.

Bri
Supposed to be 1 item against 1 item
So u may have hit lucky

A set of irons traded in is classed as 1 item
Should have been taken against 1 rescue club

Might have been a pensioners special me old mate

 

[Deleted member 16999]

I did. The Nike irons will get more than any bid on ebay.

Love your attempt at getting a brand new 915. Genius. Lol

Went in today, handed my 915 in, was offered £170.00, then got the price match at £175.00 for a brand new exact same 915, gave them a fiver and came home 😃
