Why no head cover?!?!?

Just browsing EvilBay looking at 'nearly new' clubs (Ping but sure it applies all round) and was surprised at the amount of kit for sale where the head-cover has gone missing.

If the ratio of with / without where extrapolated we'd be knee deep down most fairways!

Have I just got unlucky and viewed an atypical selection or is there something darker behind this that I, as a simple country boy, am naive to?

Does seem strange although I guess if the buyer is replacing the club on sale with another from ebay and that doesn't have a cover either he'd keep it for the new club when it arrives and wouldn't offer it.
 
Maybe they think selling the club without a headcover won't reduce the price by as much as if they sell the headcover separately?
 
I always notice this, what do people do with them, I always assumed everyone else was just really really forgetful and lose them lol

Or they sell each separately because they seem to be charging £25+ for a headcover nowadays and also seem to still want strong money for the clubs too
 
When I had Ping G10s the covers were so loose they fell off every couple of holes so would not be surprised if people had lost them
 
i know a fella who 'cant be arsed' taking them off and putting them on, he throws them in a box in the garage... hes a 500 quid scotty with no head cover. my £149 scotty is dried cleaned and gently put back in the cover everytime lol
 
Probably a lot have their own headcovers and throw the stock one in a corner somewhere then can't find it when it comes to sale time
