[PC1972]

hi has anyone bought anything from this site??
are there clubs real or fake.

 

[Jimbo9000]

I didn't buy anything from them, but I did get Direct Golf to price-match a 3 wood from their site.

 

[bees1987]

the prices do seem to be to good to be true! if you decided to buy please let me know what the product is like or if anyone has bought from the site already are they trust worthy?

no contact details - fishy
contact email is an @gmail account - more fishy
r11s driver at only 189 when rrp is 399... stinky stink stink.

If you read across the site it uses very American terms like "free shipping" as oppose to free delivery and "No Sales Tax" which doesn't apply in UK.
No tales of fake clubs or owt shows up on a basic google search.

 

[bees1987]

fair enough, but i know i wouldnt spend a dime of my money there. the fact that as a business they are using a google free gmail address stinks... and stinks bad.

I dont know any decent shops ever that used a gmail account, the web hosting package would come with free mail server space so why would you not have a sale@ info@ enquiries@ etc etc .... it stinks.

plus the fact there is not a phone number on there to contact, nor a registered trading address is even more fishy. i dont know of any shops uk or usa based that do not state their trading address, infact im sure its actually against most trading laws not to state your trading addresss.

The phone number doesn't look British (312) 985-7958

They seem to be selling Ping when Ping don't sell online which is always a good indication it isn't legit. the cost of the TM are so low it has to be fake. I'd run a mile from them and wouldn't take the chance. If it looks too good to be true.....

 

[moogie]

HA , HA , :rofl: :rofl: It Gets EVEN BETTER

SCOTTY CAMERON LIMITED EDITION DEL MAR * BUTTON BACK * PUTTER £95.99......!!!!

Caroline 21:59:56
Yes.

I totally agree Oddsocks. I pointed out the American terms as anyone genuinely selling in the UK would know that Sales Tax is not applicable in the way that its' meant.
I did a quick search but nothing sinister came back, but that doesn't mean much if they are new. Sunogolf.co.uk was around for months before the bad new stories of people lured in by the low prices started to emerge.

 

[moogie]

Even in USA clubs arent Prices like that..........avoid like the Plague

 

[bees1987]

lol i also talked to caraline and asked about the hotmail and gmail situation and the us phone number i just got the answer i dont know!

 

[wnn670]

I think it goes something like this, if its too good to be true.................

 

[Oddsocks]

lol i also talked to caraline and asked about the hotmail and gmail situation and the us phone number i just got the answer i dont know!

thats because their using virtual assistant like mars100, you ask a question and it picks up key words and fires back a reply, its not a real person.

 

[PC1972]

cheers for the replys guys..i spoke to a guy today at direct golf sales he said that website along with about 200 others are on their counterfit list.

 

[Val]

Ive just had an online chat with one of their agents, shipping is from the US and you need to pay customs charges.

Not as cheap as it would appear

If you knew the answer then why did you ask the question?
