Spalding Tour Edition custom crafted (blades)

[bernard22h22]

Hello to everyone on the forum!

My name is Bernard, golfer from Belgium, and I am trying to buy a set of Spalding Tour Edition custom crafted (blades, with bird on ball on the back) - that was my first set as a beginner (not easy).


Despite putting a lot of time looking up the net, the only offers I can see are for individual clubs (on ebay, ironfinder, vintage-golf-clubs.com), but not for whole sets...

Could one of you tell me how to proceed? Are there specialized other sites/forums?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Bernard

If you go to ebay.com (as opposed to .co.uk or .co.be), you might see more sets available.

For example: http://www.ebay.com/itm/RARE-VINTAG...OUR-EDITION-IRONS-/330696034494#ht_760wt_1110

Thanks Etan for your answer!

I was wondering how it could be that I had not found thar deal on ebay, having looked extensively... then I clicked on the link you sent me, and I received an ebay message basically telling that:

Unfortunately, access to this particular item has been blocked due to legal restrictions in some countries. We are blocking your viewing in an effort to prevent restricted items from being displayed. Regrettably, in some cases, we may prevent users from accessing items that are not within the scope of said restrictions because of limitations of existing technology. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience this may cause, and we hope you may find other items of interest on eBay.


As a result, could you be kind enough to send me some details about this deal (since I cannot access it)? a copy & paste of the content? and/or a www/email address I could look up into?


Thanks a million

No problem. I have taken a screenshot of the auction. Send me your email address and I will send it to you. The seller is laughlinsgolfworld, and you should be able to send them a message and ask if they will ship them to Europe. Some sellers will do so even if they originally intended not to, especially if they have no US buyers, and also if they can sell off-ebay and save some fees.

The set is currently at $175, with no bids and 1 day and 14 hours to run

Thanks Ethan. I just sent the seller an email on his ebay mailbox, let's see how this turns out...
all in all this seems to be a good deal at 175, since I've bumped into sales of individual irons around 40-60 apiece. what do you reckon? I am not a specialist, this my first time buying used clubs... advice welcome!

I saw a few individual irons at $59 each from another seller. I remember the Tour Edition clubs - Greg Norman played them in the late 80s, early 90s, but I don't know whether this set is collectible or not. If not $175 seems a good price for the seller to get.

Hi Bernard,

Long time since you asked the question but if you are still looking I have a set of these clubs (3-SW). Let me know if you're interested. I live in England and can post etc. Otherwise, hope you managed to get them already and are still enjoying the use of them. Let me know.

Thanks,

Reuben.
