do you sell your stuff? And if so, do you take really good care to maximize your resale, or just sell it when you are done because you don't want extra stuff around?

I don't sell anything, and I don't think I ever will. I have traded a driver before, but I still have every other club I've ever owned. To be perfectly honest I don't think all of my used stuff together would bring more than a couple hundred bucks max. Most of my old stuff wasn't high end, and the stuff that was is heavily used.

I often buy used clubs on Ebay (because you can buy them dirt cheap) and I have resold clubs on Ebay in the past.
You typically dont make much money on them, but thats better than having them sitting around collecting dust.
Id rathar sell my old clubs on Ebay to someone who might actually use them and enjoy them than to just have them sitting around.

I used to keep everyhting and then things just started piling up. I now try and get rid of everything I dont think I am going end up playing and figure if I miss it that bad I could always get one on ebay. The only thing that I make a point to keep are putters that I have grown fond of. Everything else gets sold/bartered or given away.

For the most part, I give away my unused clubs/bags/stuff to one of my nephews. Although, I have sold a few sets of irons and a driver or two. I like to use my local Craigslist.

That said, I still have about 30 old sticks, including my first real irons in the shed. Some stuff you just can't part with.


I've bought and sold a few putters on Ebay.

Always had good experiences.

I do try to take care of my gear.....especially putters. They have a headcover on them when not in use.

I try to sell my stuff, just so I won't have it collecting dust in the basement. I have bought almost all my clubs off of eBay in the last 8 to 10 years, always seem to get better deals and as far as I can tell never been taken yet.

With the hybrid craze, I bought a hybrid off eBay, played with it for several months, decided it wasn't for me, put it back out on eBay and got maybe $15 less then I paid for it. I've done the same thing with putters.

Yeah, wanna make 14 dollars the hard way?


I have sold a putter, driver, 3 wood on craig's list and given away more clubs to friends and clients. I loan my other clubs to my brother, with a bag and Scotty Cameron putter.

Golf equipment ain't cheap, so I couldn't justify keeping something that will go unused. I've sold woods, wedges and putters on ebay. Sometimes I actually made money, sometimes I got hosed. But if I have no use for it, I see no reason to keep it. I did keep my first set of clubs and had them cut down for my wife (and eventually my son) to use.

well, i usually keep the stuff i dont use, just because i keep telling myself that i will use it again someday. i buy A LOT of golf equipment. i've posted this photo in another thread, but just to give you an idea of how much equipment i buy, the photo below shows about 2 months worth of purchases, and this is only HALF of the pile. the other half is in another room downstairs. i have thrown out MOST of these boxes since i took that photo, but I did keep some just in case i decide to sell some of the clubs. i know i should just sell a lot of the clubs i dont use, but again, i keep telling myself im going to use all of them someday....sheesh

Oh my god. That is truly amazing. If you have some TM RAC CB 2005 Irons that you ever want to get rid of..... To the original OP, yup, I constantly sell stuff. I sold a set of Mizuno MP30s that I absolutely hated along with a Cobra Driver, two hybrids and a 3W for $500. I then used that money to purchase four new wedges (see sig) and some golf apparel. I'm always buying and selling. I've become a bit of a shaft feign, too. Hoping to purchase my first Matrix on ebay. That will go into the 3W.

I constantly buy/sell/sometimes trade. Probably hasn't helped my game a whole lot but, I take the same care for my clubs whether or not I think I'll keep it or sell it.

For what used clubs sell for, I prefer to donate my old equipment to The First Tee. It does some good and I get a tax deduction to boot.

I been buying, selling and trading for going on 3 years now. Always use iron and headcovers and always try to post good pics when I do sell. I only use ebay as a LAST resort and sell in forum BST's as much as possible. Condition matters.
