I have a Taylor Made R7 425 TP that I just bought. Great shape, I'd say 8.5/10. I bought the club mainly for the shaft, Diamana Blueboard s73, love that shaft. I am thinking I am going to pull the head and keep the shaft-sell the head either here or on ebay. I did a search on ebay, and there were a few heads that sold-really high like $125-$130. They were 9.5* though and this is a 10.5*.

Any suggestions for a price on this club? I was thinking of doing a buy it now for $99 and opening the bidding at $79.99. Does this sound to high or low? Any thoughts would be much appreciated!!! Thanks!!!

Here is the link to the club I bought, I can get better pics up if anybody needs it. I was actually outbid and got a second chance offer....

I think that your price seems about right on. Although a couple of generations old, the 425 TP is one of the best driver heads ever. Still very desirable. You got a great deal to begin with.

Yeah I wasn't surprised when I put the bid in and got outbid, I was shocked when I came home from work and had a 2nd chance offer.

I'd think that maybe $80 for the head would be decent.

You might not have it scooped up immediately for that price, considering many(like you) could get a whole set up with shaft and such for that price.

It's a great head though, so you have a really good shot. Only problem is, people are scared to buy JUST the head on ebay, and especially something that was a super high counterfeit club, and still is.

So I'll give you $40 for it. :)

LOL, nice try. I have actually had really good luck selling just heads on ebay. I sold an R5 TP head for way more than I thought I would get for it. I am just really clear in my listing and always post the serial #. Seems to work well.

You still got this 425tp head? I want it! Really really bad!

Yeah, I haven't pulled the shaft yet-but that's no big deal. I will post some pics for you later today if you are really interested, and give you first dibbs (sp?)!

What's the story on the black paintfill on the r7 on the bottom? The pics in the ebay auction have the standard colors. Is that just glare?

Oh, no. The red in the R was almost gone so I removed the rest and filled it in with Black paintfill with a paint pen I go from the Golfworks. I for some reason like the look of the all black versus the red and black.

It can be easily corrected with a little acetone and red nail polish, if you want to that is.
