I was robbed on EBay by the Cleveland CG12 fakes, I bought 3 for £110 not knowing the real cost of things as I was new to golf but as soon as they arrived it was obvious. I tried to use them and kid myself they where ok but in the end I found the invoice and emailed the swine who sold them and I said my pro says these are fakes!! he email back and refunded my cash with no further questions other than he "would take it up with their supplier".. cash back and happy in the end but you have to be very careful.

That's incredibly fortunate. I dare say they were part of this major scam and wanted no questions raised toward them.

It's the main reason why I don't use ebay for buying or selling

Buyer beware, if it looks too good to be true,it probably is!
