Good Golf Store on Ebay!

Ive found this store that sells only golf stuff on ebay for good prices, when you first enter his store its all clothing, but then you will find some clubs as u go deeper. The prices are pretty good too! I got a set of new Taylormade OS2's for 390 including shipping (I live in HK, China) The company that sells this stuff on ebay is "rockbottomgolf". Their site is rockbottomgolf.com - Theres only 1 bad thing...there isnt enough variety of clubs

The other bad thing is the price you pay for shipping via UPS.

Um, the prices are really cheap so, even with the shipping, its still much cheaper than when you buy it from a local store.

True - much cheaper than in a store. But then, they're comparable to other e-tailers, and you may get to ship for less.

Just my $0.02.

Sorry mate, had a bad experience with them I won 1 Auction from them turns out they dont ship to Singapore. Gave me an Unpaid Strike, although eventually it was removed cause they mis-stated they do ship to Singapore. It was a bad experience cause they hounded me to pay up but I couldnt cause Singapore's not on the list of countries!

Re: Good Golf Store on Ebay!

I purchased a couple wedges from Rockbottom last year. It was a good experience for me. Quick shipping. Super cheap. I try to support my local shop. I'll even pay a premium. But when you can save 40-50% buying through Ebay, it's hard to pass it up. I bought my Srixon irons online for 220 when I couldn't find them locally for less than 499.00. I feel bad for the pro shops, but it really says something about their markup when other retailers can sell for half.

Re: Good Golf Store on Ebay!

I've never purchased from rockbottomgolf, but I made a few purchases from MKCgolf on Ebay. They've treated me well, products have very detailed and exact descriptions and they will ship to you the cheapest, fastest way possible. Nothing but good experiences from them.

Re: Good Golf Store on Ebay!

I always always do Pacific Golf Center on EBAY. Their customer support alone is worth it. Highly professional and always always communicating. They don't make 'top brand' irons but they make exact replicas. For instance, I just got the Nike Slingshot replicas (VO2 OSS) for $120 - custom made for my body. Before that I had the T7 custom made irons.

So if any of you are ever looking for some cheap and high-quality irons, check out Pacific Golf Center on Ebay.

Re: Good Golf Store on Ebay!

This goes for all eBay auctions not just this seller.

The only problem with eBay (for us non-Americans) is the "extras" that aren't always easy to calculate in the price while you're trying to win the auction.

Exchange -- yes it is calculated but you still have to figure that into the equation and sometimes it can be different as exchange rates do fluctuate.
Duty -- US clubs are duty-free but Mizuno's for instance have duty (at least I paid it on my driver last year)
Shipping -- why it should cost so much I can't figure out (I work for the post office in Canada and I'm pretty sure shippers are making a bundle on marking-up the shipping.
Brokerage fees -- here's the one that can be very costly. (Around $50 on my Mizuno driver last year).

So a good deal at auction can easily add another $100 in extra costs.

Re: Good Golf Store on Ebay!

As far as the shipping goes, I can tell you something that came right from the mouth of a UPS delivery driver. Shipping USPS is way cheaper though it may take a little longer. UPS adds a fee of somewhere around $30 dollars if they have to cross the border. This is on top of the taxes that we get charged bring something into Canada.

Re: Good Golf Store on Ebay!

Do clone clubs actually work like the real clubs that they are cloning? If so where can you find them and how can you know who to trust when buying clones?
