Just took delivery on 36 "Mint Condition" Titleist HVCs from UsedGolfballs.com.

Don't do it. They look like the balls I keep in the strap recesses of my bag to hit away.

Did they have a "guarantee" that they would be in a certain condition?

I got some AAAA quality balls from Lostgolfballs.com and they were excelent.

Prov1 - 1 out of 12 had a small mark on the ball, looked like it was hit one time. 3 or 4 Logo balls. Wilson 50 - all 12 in perfect condition. again 3 or 4 Logo balls. Titleist DT/SoLo - 3 out of 2 dozen had a small mark all others looked new, some logo, 2 with pen marks that came of easily, most are regular balls. I was so happy with them I reordered 10 dozen DT SoLo balls.

Found a tip on some housewife site saying to soak them overnight in an OxiClean solution. All but 6 are bright white now.

Thanks. I'll use someone else next time.

I got "mint" balls from a site this year - 10 dozen Pro V1x's. They look like the real deal. They react like brand new ProV1x's - driving distance, iron spin and control on and around greens.

Only issue i've had is the cover comes off much easier - might be something to do with the chemical treatment they're given to clean them. That said, I lose 2 balls every 3 rounds, the scratches do not effect performance. I'll be getting them again but i'd always be wary of "mint" balls...
