I traded my old Callaway x2 Hot driver, a £10 loaded AG card (a longest drive prize), a £20 voucher they sent in the post and a £10 birthday voucher they give away. I added £24 for a Ping Crossover club.

Very disappointed. Went to two AG stores to trade in a couple of putters to get some cash off the new Ping milled offering. Neither had any of these in any model in stock. Grrrrrr

Went to another store and still not a sign of any of these. They are in other shops so not exactly hard to get. Going to mail AG as I'm not happy. I have AG vouchers to use, want this putter and can't spend

How did that work then Chris...??

I only get your driver to be worth £56
+10 +20 +10 +24
= £120

Crossover are more than that....

Or did they give you a special OAP double trade in deal on your old driver ;)

Why not just order it at your local AG?

They price matched the Ping to Online Golf and gave me slightly more for my driver

Can't understand his stance either
Anything advertised on their website as in stock can be ordered and delivered to your local store the next day

Custom orders are available too
I'm confused, but maybe there's a perfectly logical answer............

Didnt he say he wanted to try a few clubs?

i stand to be corrected, but orders to store are paid in advance. So unless you wanna lump on two or more putters then get a refund on those that you don't like, trying instore stock is only realistic option.

Orders over the net are paid in advance, but orders in-store you pay when it arrives, that's what happened with me.

How many clubs did you order though?

if it was a wide variety I'd imagine they'd have no problem. Ordering a batch of putters so then they are left holding the stock? It so sure.

That said, before having a paddy and complaining about it, I'd at least enquiry......

You couldn't order a batch, but if you know other places have them, go there, try them out and then order the one you want via AG using vouchers and trade in.

Very simple. I still want to try before I buy. I think I know which model I want but want to try one other first. My point, simple as I thought it was, is I don't understand why they have no stock of any of these latest Ping clubs at any store. Also, if I order online I cannot redeem against my AG vouchers as they are in store only.

When I bought the Ping Crossover on Friday last week their simulator was broken and they only had it in Tour Stiff but I was assured that I have a 30 day money back guarantee if I didn't want to keep it. So, I guess anyone can try a club out without worry

It's the fact there are none in stock TO TRY and the fact that I can only redeem my vouchers in store. I find it frustrating that it's the latest offering from Ping (granted their most expensive ever, but they manage to stock Scotty's) and three stores don't have a single model of any description in store. Off to Northampton on Saturday so I'll see what their store has but not holding my breath

You can check online which stores have what. Saves any wasted journeys

*just checked, don't think you can with a Ping product

AG can get any product from another store within a couple of days for a non obligation to buy viewing,just go instore and ask them to check the product you wants availability from another store,the staff have access to what stocks left in every store.
