Maybe AG have a cash flow problem and this promotion is away of generating cash via the second hand market.

A little simplistic but even so that is exactly what I mean.
It is the responsibility of the next level of management to ensure that, in a national company, promotions are applied in a uniform manner. If not the company risks bad PR and end up with some dissatisfied customers.
I agree. From the correspondence I had, managers that weren't applying it were contacted. I know I received a different offer for, the same store after a call.
It seems that it's just been more successful in terms of volume at least than they expected.

Took my 915 3 & 5 Woods in today and traded for a SM6 and 816H for £90.00 cash.
Store manager reckons it will go on to at least end of Nov and they have never been busier at this time of the year, even with trade in they are up (cash wise) in takings on the last 3 years.

i think the offer has worked well for them. I bought a new set of irons which i never intended to, a new putter,2 new hybrids and 5 wood.
My total spend was £360 after trading in stuff that i was not using and for that i got a set of psi irons in graphite from 6-SW,M1 4,5 hybrids and M1 3W and a spider oversize putter.

Went in today to trade in my 3 wood a m2 wood.
Tested my club against the m2 and could not hit a ball properly with either, was a horrible experience of just ballooning and slicing.
Really is frustrating going through it and did not buy as was not able to gather data needed to see an improvement on club...
Back to the drawing board and lesson booked for next week to work on woods.

Does anyone know of they would offer you a gift card to the value of the club you are trading in so you can use it at a later date or do you need to buy equipment that day you are trading in against?

I would imagine you would need to buy something there and then

No I dont think they will. They make it clear that its only for equipment and that if you trade in a driver for say £100 and buy a wedge for £70 you dont get a credit for £30 so I dont see them doing a gift card because then you could spend on anything in store and also could save it for when the club you want drops in price loosing and of their profits their making
Theres some decent trade ins turning up at some AG's with this promo,still amazes me that the mark up price on the p ex gear is half what the paid for it!!

I went along to the Wakefield store this morning. They honoured the quote of £145 for my old Adams Idea A12 os hybrid irons set. I am now the proud owner of a Scotty Cameron Futura X7m putter which I can't wait to try on course. After the trade in it cost me £134.99, bargain!
Another plus point is avoiding eBay and the inevitable frustrations I experience when selling clubs on there. All in all one happy golfer tonight!

Someone asked earlier about the Cleveland 588 TT irons that I picked up on the deal with a price match at £199 (Onlinegolf).
I've had two rounds with them so far and happy with them. They do have quite a large cavity and look to be more forgiving than expected. The stiff shafts don't appear to be an issue and I've hit some very nice shots with them (along with a number of poor ones, but that's down to the user). Certainly well worth considering, especially at the price.

That was me mate, glad you like them 👠For that price an absolute giveaway. Just not the right time for me to be messing around with another set of irons.
Roll on Tuesday when all this double trade in madness ends, and I can stop looking at my clubs thinking, I can get a good price for you...

Once this offer ends people are going to be able to pick up some bargain second hand gear.. prob not in bad condition either
I know what you mean about the deal.. have had to stop myself! I was going to upgrade my 3 wood via them but £40 I would have got for my club meaning £140 for a m2 3 wood.. in the end I found one on ebay for £140, then sold the 3 wood to a mate at work for £50 .. slightly better deal for me.. not bad considering it cost £85 brand new

surely doing exactly the opposite isnt it? Taking in lots of second hand stock instead of cash, and overvalued stock at that, could be a while before some of it is realised
