I was thinking of purchasing a used set of clubs from my friend. Could you guys possibly value the set.

-Iron set: Callaway X-14 3-P... 7.5/10 condition
-Driver:Great Big Bertha and Taylormade Supersteel 9.5 Driver
-Woods:TM 200steel 3wood and TM 18% 5wood
-Puttler: White Hot Odyssey (2 ball)
-Wilson lob wedge and Carbite SW
-Bag: Plain Black Taylor Made bag
Driver: 3dx driver 10.5*
Irons: 3dx hybrid irons 5-P
Iron: X-14 3 iron
Wood: MT 4wood 16.5*
Wedge: Lob 60*Putter: White Hot 2-ballBag: Xtreme Sport Stand Bag

Just use an online used club pricing system. Golfsmith has one, and there are many others, including one sponsored by the USGA.

My Tools of Ignorance:

Driver: Ping I20 9.5*
Woods/Hybrids: Cobra AMP 3W and 3 HY

Irons: Cobra AMP 4-GW

Wedges: Callaway Forged Copper 56* and 60*

Putters: Scotty Cameron  35" (Several of the flow neck blade variety)

Ball: Bridgestone B330-RX and Srixon Z-Star

Bag: Nike Performance Carry


Those pricing systems are not the most accurate things however..

Basically, I wouldnt pay more than 250 for that set.

Those pricing systems are not the most accurate things however..

What is accurate then? Your opinion? Golfsmith's guide uses something like 5 condition levels; hard to imagine you could get more exact than that as long as you can agree on condition.

My Tools of Ignorance:

Driver: Ping I20 9.5*
Woods/Hybrids: Cobra AMP 3W and 3 HY

Irons: Cobra AMP 4-GW

Wedges: Callaway Forged Copper 56* and 60*

Putters: Scotty Cameron  35" (Several of the flow neck blade variety)

Ball: Bridgestone B330-RX and Srixon Z-Star

Bag: Nike Performance Carry


Thanks both of you for your help. I'll check those sites online... My friend is asking for $200
Driver: 3dx driver 10.5*
Irons: 3dx hybrid irons 5-P
Iron: X-14 3 iron
Wood: MT 4wood 16.5*
Wedge: Lob 60*Putter: White Hot 2-ballBag: Xtreme Sport Stand Bag

I would say in the range of $150 to $200.

IF you like the irons (which I don't know if they are graphite or steel), I'd say grab the set up. Those along with the putter are definately worth $200. You could probably throw out the woods and it'd be an OK deal. Maybe offer him $150 without the drivers. If he balks at that say something like "You can get your $50 by selling those somewhere else. Unless you don't think those drivers are worth $25 a piece. In which case why would I want them?" That works sometimes!

You'll be stepping up to a larger driver soon and the $50 could go a long way toward a 460 cc driver that's 2 or 3 years old. You could get about any brand name driver with this criteria for about $100. You really don't want those drivers in that bag. Good luck!

Thanks! I'll try to negotiate that... They are steel irons btw. I calculated the package using preowned sites to be worth $265

What is most important is that you like what your getting, and you are getting a fair deal to your parameters. For example,

http://valueguide.pga.com/detail-exe.../m/Burner%20TP Now if you can honestly tell me thats accurate.. your estimated value is 50 bucks for a Burner TP FW.. So please, take some time to look at these things. Golfsmith doesnt give you none to much either.

What is most important is that you like what your getting, and you are getting a fair deal to your parameters. For example,

I agree completely, these prices are bs, so that the Golf stores can give you this, then double it on the resell and make a bit. I usually double what it says, and that tells me what it is worth.


$150-200 sounds like a good deal. The irons and putter def worth it. Can look to replace the wedges, woods, and driver.

Those were my thoughts exactly. I was thinking of replacing the woods with a couple hybrid clubs. As for the driver I'll probably use them for a while then eventually replace them when I have the money (Christmas is right around the corner, so I'm going to be poor!) My friend really just wants to sell the package so I guess $200 it is! I still think it's a pretty good deal.

That is it in a nutshell! All you have to do is look at the "trade-in" value of a club, then look up the price on a preowned version of the same club on the same site. Two minutes of research and you will see through this. That's why it's so much better to resale a used club than trade it.


What is most important is that you like what your getting, and you are getting a fair deal to your parameters. For example,

That's the trade in value. If you look at the re-sale value, it's $94.64, which is much more accurate for what you can sell it for online.

909 D2 9.5Β° Driver - Diamana Blue Board Stiff
F-60 3W - Grafalloy ProLaunch Blue Stiff
CLK FLI-HI 17Β°/20Β° Hybrids - Grafalloy ProLaunch Blue Stiff
MP-57 4-PW - True Temper Dynalite Gold Superlite S300
MP-T 54Β°/12Β° & 60Β°/8Β° - Rifle Spinner Bettinardi C-03 Putter Pro V1x


For anyone looking for an "accurate" rate on anything used, clubs or whatever, check the completed listings on ebay. For the most part ebay is an everyday person selling to another everyday person. But, you can only check completed listings if you have an ebay account...

Callaway RazrFit Extreme 9.5 w/Project X 6.5
Callaway XHot Pro 15* 3Wood w/Project X 6.5
Callaway XTour 18* 2h w/S300
Callaway XHot Pro 4/5 irons w/S300
Callaway XForged III 5-PW irons w/S300
Callaway Forged 52*/58* Wedges
Odyssey 7 Versa 90
Callaway Hex Black Tour


The re-sale value from the PGA value guide uses ebay to get their numbers, so for that TM FW listed above, the $94.64 is based on 526 listings of that particular club.

F-60 3W - Grafalloy ProLaunch Blue Stiff
CLK FLI-HI 17Β°/20Β° Hybrids - Grafalloy ProLaunch Blue Stiff

MP-T 54Β°/12Β° & 60Β°/8Β° - Rifle Spinner Bettinardi C-03 Putter Pro V1x

Just a quick note on using the pga value guide...i'm sure most of you are aware of this but for those that aren't -

The first value that appears when using the value guide is the trade-in value. If you look directly to the right of this you will see a link that says 'get the re-sale value'. This is the more important value for you when you are trying to work out what a good purchase price for a particular product is.

This re-sale price is based on information gathered from ebay.

When trading in clubs through dicks spoting goods they usally give me the highest value that is shown in the trade it chart.
