American golf double value trade in

I bought a demo G30 ls tec last year for £180 and they gave me £176, so I put £123.99 to get the Ping G LS TEC, and it seems slightly better, though it is early days to make a real judgement.

Yeah but the g30 I was looking at was hammered. Was thinking by getting the g for 183 new I couldn't lose.

But performance wise g 30 Vs G I don't think there be anything really

My local AG now have a 2nd clubs section. Some decent priced irons but some are well overpriced.

Dilemma I can get £220 for my current Scotty & Ping Kersch, do I trade for a brand new Scotty Mmm??

Thats where I got the putter from. 33 sets of 2nd hand irons the fella said they had in. If thats typical and all stores have similair, theyll take some shiftin

Yes, similar story up our area too.
Gateshead metro centre branch, and gosforth shop, have huge amounts of irons too.
At gosforth, not even enough space to display them all on shop floor, was in on Friday, and there was approx 15-20 sets of used irons in the fitting bay....!!

That is going to make a huge dent in Golfbidder's business model.

Ordered a 917 D2 Driver last week, traded in some irons, cost me £140.00, went in today to look at the 917F 3 wood and trade in another 3 wood against it, manager says, if you are going to order the 917F, cancel the original 917D2 and then order both 917's at the same time and you can have an extra 10% off with our latest offer,
So ordering seperate:
917D2 @ £350.00, will cost trade in + £140.00 cash
917F 3 wood @ £250.00, will cost trade in + £120.00 cash.

Total £260.00 cash

Ordering together: @ £600.00 less 10% = £540.00 - £390.00(Trade in) = £150.00

Save £110.00 cash reordering!

I think that's correct, just seems to good to be true.

Not sure it is; how do you get £390 trade in mate? Looks like £210 & £130 = £340 from your figures, not your £390.

That £50 difference takes your saving down to £60 which is the 10% saving on the £600 if I'm right.

Cheers, D2 price is £400.00, thought it looked too good, defo got £390.00 trade in, makes sense now and still a decent saving,
£650.00 - £65.00 = £585.00 less £390.00 = £195.00 to pay.

£65.00 saved

Paul.

You go to the Sunderland AG? Might be passing on my way south tomorrow and have an x7 in my boot and anot itch for mizuno wedges.

Went to the Gateshead shop today on the way up and wedge stock was poor.

Is Sunderland a decent size store?

I'd say that gosforth / Newcastle store has the most wedges out on display out of the 3 local stores.

Re wedges
You do realise if you put in the X7 , you will only get 1 wedge in return....
You don't get the value of the X7 as credit to use against wedges

Ah. That's not such a good deal then Moogie.

Thanks for the info. Will save me a trip :thup:

Nippped into Hull AG yesterday and they have got loads and loads of 2nd hand iron sets for sale. As others have said they'll need shifting !! Will be interesting to see what they do with it all.

There are a great deals to be had if you buy two new woods. 10% off retail price and then the double trade in option too. I bought a couple of little numbers that i thought were outside of my price range. Worth a look.

£160 for an old set of Cleveland CG7's that would have fetched £70 on ebay max. Bought a new Titleist 816 Hybrid and only cost me £20 - could probably have tried to find the hybrid cheaper elsewhere and go down the price match route, but being honest I was happy with the deal.

Has anybody been cheeky enough to bag aset of irons of ebay & then trade them in at an inflated price to help with purchasing?

literally thinking the same i wonder what set would give you the best mark up in terms of price paid vs trade in value

Can't believe anybody would do that......
