Seems to be mixed figures being given across the AG stores. I have been given the figure on the trade in tab no matter what. Others have been given the lower offer. I'd be expecting the trade in tab value if I was you.

The new taylor made woods would hold their value pretty well on the bay.

This is the only drawback of the AG offer, you will still get the same price pretty much regardless of condition as long as its half decent and resell-able, it doesn't matter if it's new, mint, good condition, or fairly poor. So you kind of loose out a bit if your clubs are in excellent condition. In most cases the shop will give you the value based on the "trade in" tab, not the "research" tab, there is only one trade in tab value no low/mid/high values.
Theres no chance of the higher amount period with my local stores,as ive said before a mate tried to trade in a Callaway 816 diamond driver still in its wrapper and was offered the lower amount,basically where I live theres 3 prices lowest lowest lowest and thats it
Thats not top end,top value on your clubs on the PGA guide is $172.50 doubled to $345 divided by 1.5 is £230,you got slightly above the lowest value I guess cos your irons were recently re-gripped.

Possibly but as Golfbidder only offered £75 which doubled is £150 I'm still ahead of the game. Not too fussed as the value plus the vouchers meant my G driver was free. Can't knock that price

Won't last much longer. Golf brands are not supporting AG with any custom fit days if they continue with this offer

Why? That doesn't make sense, surely the Golf Brands are making out of this, they are getting a price from AG and AG are ordering more stock and increasing the brand awareness, how AG deal with the 2nd hand clubs is AG's problem. Going on this forum alone AG have shifted more new stock than ever before I'd imagine.

Because other big groups are not happy and pressurising the brands. You are not allowed to discount the brand and offering double trade in is another way of discounting. I know Silvermere who are in a group who turnover £40m have said they will drop brands that support AG. Imagine if you offer a custom fit and then your customer goes to AG for the double trade in. You can't compete because you can't sell the second hand clubs for the trade in price.

That's still the groups issue, if the Brands are making out of AG, why would they cut off their nose to spite their face, AG are the biggest Golf retailer in UK, who are the brands going to want to support?

But if Silvermere which I know very well, drop those supporting AG does that mean not TM, Cally, Mizuno, Ping and Srixon all of which are offered in the custom fits (along with Titleist). They'd go under in no time as they can't exist on the range and golf course alone

Doesn't look anytime soon, AG email tonight offering the new Callaway, Mizuno and TM clubs.

There's not much the brands can do, but I do know they are not offering custom fit days. AG may be the biggest but they only have a small share.

I tried to order a new Titleist driver today and they aren't able to order any additional stock from Titleist whilst they sort out an issue. I'm told it's to do with the double trade in offer.
ive also been flagged by one of the regional managers for multiple trade ins and the store aren't supposed to do anymore for me (they just did it without using my reward card instead).

Wil AG price match other retailers as well as offer double trade in.
I want to try the epic driver and AG want £469 for it where other etailers are £429.

How many have you done? I'm going into double figures this week I hope.

They are meant to yes. But in my store the manager was very cheeky when I asked. He did do it, but did say to never ask again as I wouldn't be getting it.

The Guy at the at I went in last week (Oxford) said that by the time the Epic is available it's likely that at will have matched the £429 as standard price..

That's what I thought, the price they have the new taylormade gear is the same as everyone else.
