Will be interesting to see if Titleist really do boycott AG over this. If they do it wont be long before the offer ends because Titleist is one of the most popular brands out there

Just reading back a few pages very lucky to have got these when I did. This was a custom SM6 order. Lie angle adjustment S300 shafts and TV 360 grips. Ordered on boxing day
One AG near me is difficult to deal with,they low ball the double trade in deal and question price matching as the genuine website your getting your quote from might be fake

Finally took advantage of this offer.
Calculated my trade-in price in advance yet received over £60 more ? On top of that the figure was £20 more than the cost of my purchase so I put that towards 1 doz Pro v1x.
Very happy but it does seem to confirm that there is not a uniform approach to the offer by all stores.

You took clubs in and got balls, I thought that couldn't be done?
He went to a store that was willing to add goods up to the amount of his trade in,not many will do this...

This is very true....
Yet again highlighting the huge inconsistencies from store to store

Agreed there is so much inconsistency between stores
my store were pretty good
said they would price match and offered me £370 for 3-pw on this set I sold. They even said they would buy the 2 iron I had for it for the price of one club so was £410 I think it was. However the clubs I got in their place were £379 (after match) and they wouldn't let me use for balls etc
so I just said I'll pay the £9 keep the 2 iron and sell it on eBay. Sold for £31 after fees and postage so worked out ok

Has anyone tried swapping in combo sets? my current Iron set is made up of MX-15 Irons and MP-4 Irons. Not sure how they would value?

I phoned once (when thinking of buying a set for profit)
they said they would give me the cost of the set by iron or something like value what I have and give me the cost of what the set should be (maybe the worse of the two sets)
sounded too much like a lot of a effort

As shivas said the balls were only to use up the balance after I purchased a set of irons.
Like yourself I didn't think that was supposed to happen but then I also thought they would only offer pga trade-in value and I got over £50 more. Very strange!

I doubt they are bargains. My local store has a beaten up 915 driver for £199. I said I can buy it new for that.

I assume the store manager determines 2nd hand prices. The ones in my nearest store seem pretty fair with some decent bargains in there, but the problem for AG is they appear to be giving much the same trade in value regardless of condition, but poor condition clubs will be much harder for them to sell on than good condition stuff, they must be going to take a fair hit on some of the clubs they've taken in.

My mate picked up a two ball putter in good nic for 21 quid. Not everything is overpriced.
Surely if you are getting only half back on the secondhand clubs you trade in for new clubs that are on a low mark up AG retail ie Ping & Titleist there must bei a loss on each club.
When I worked for AG some 6 yrs ago we couldnt offer a better deal on these low profit brands,there was litteraly £20 to be made by AG on some of these clubs so after doing a double deal trade in how can you make any sort of profit

Value each set, divide the price via the number of irons to get a single iron price then times by the number of irons you have from each set.
