Taylormade R7 Max CGB Irons

[Ray_T]

Hi all. This is my first post on this forum, so please accept my apologies if I have started this thread in the wrong section.

I recently bought a 2nd hand set of the afore mentioned irons on fleabay. I already have a 56deg that I love so I sold the TM SW onto someone else. It turns out this club/set is fake. I have spoken to TM Europe who tell me they have no record of the seriel number which is on my 7-iron. Is this definately indicate a fake set?

I was wondering if anyone has a 'genuine' set of these irons who could possibly help me distinguish some differences between mine and theirs? I need to confirm 100% that they are fake before I take the seller to the Small Claims Courts.

Sorry my first post was a long one and thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

Ray

Hi and welcome to the Forum.
Bad news about your TM's. Not having a serial number doesn't automatically mean you've got fakes although its a good indicator. If you bought them through E-bay and paid via Paypal it may be worth getting on to them and letting them do the legwork. It worked for me. A gut sold me a fake FT-3 driver and I initiated a complaint through PayPal and within the month I'd got my money back. Ebay don't like fakes being sold - they've got little enough reputation as it is and they don't want it tarnished further.
Who says they're fakes? If you're really not sure I'd take them along to a pro who sells TM's and let him have a look at them. He should be able to tell if they're duds.

Ouch...sorry to hear that.

Oddly if you type 'fake golf clubs' into Google it returns this page http://reviews.ebay.co.uk/Fake-Golf-Clubs-and-Drivers-on-Ebay_W0QQugidZ10000000004623959
which specifically mentions TaylorMade R7 CGB clubs

I'd consider contacting the police and see what they have to say about it. They must have an internet fraud division.

Hope you get it sorted.

Regards...
