are they any good tho?

I have a friend that picked up a couple pre-owned Callaway Hawkeye VFT fairway woods and they ended up being in fantastic shape. They were listed as "good", but I would go on record saying they would be 8.5-9/10 any day of the week....

As someone that sells a lot of used clubs, most repuitable places will grade them a little worse than they are. I would rather you be surprised by a better quality club than hacked off because it is in worse shape.

 

[Rockford35]

True. That's a good selling technique.

I bought a driver off E-bay once that was rated as "good shape". The thing looked like it was showroom. Zero marks.

That's a bonus everyone likes to have.

I just bought a TaylorMade Firesole Rescue 24* from Callaway Pre-owned on ebay and it was in excellent shape... and they rated it an '8'.
I like it when people underrate their offerings... unlike this guy.

I'm still trying to figure out if he's blind or not...

 

[obagain]

That is rediculous. I wouldn't give him $10 in that condition.

 

[Rockford35]

He's an E-bay rookie, but cripes. That's ridiculous.

Yeah, I thought so too.

The part that got me was the "No deficiencies whatsoever"... I'm wondering if he's talking about himself, or the club... but I guess that description isn't fitting for either.

I wonder just how bad it would have to be before he rated it lower... a snapped shaft maybe?
Then he'd probably just rate it average...

yea, golfsmith is awsome, when i bought my driver from there it was in perfect condition, it even had the plastic still on it!

It looks like he was hitting rocks with that driver. I bought my Titlesit 975 J driver off of Ebay, and it was in perfect condition. It feels great and I hit sneaky long...for me that is. I was considering buying a G2 from Golfsmith but haven't done it yet, but I'm sure anything you buy from there will be in satisfactory conditon. Golfsmith has a reputation for being a quality company, they should be a safe bet.

 

[lameshooter]

do you guys think these irons would be any good?

These are a very good mid level type club. You should be able to find them on ebay cheaper though.

This is a set that sold earlier.

The only thing about people underrating clubs and trying to sell them is some people may not buy them because the seller says they aren't top notch. No?
