It's my hard earned money..

I miss shots with a driver I am comfortable with because if I didn't I might actually be able to make it to a scratch.

So you would expect a new club if they damaged your used one and offered to fix it for free but you had to take a demo for 2 weeks? I'm betting you would just take the demo instead of haggling anyone

Leave the kid out of it....not really apples to apples, is it? He's not paying for it, nor capable to handle the situation with the adults running the store. He might go home

No offense, kid!

People like you are impossible to talk with..

When did I say I disnt get a great deal?

when did i ask for sympathy?

I was in a busy retail store, of course people heard our conversation..

Whining?

I think not, dont confuse anger and whining....

i posted a rant.. if you dont like it, move on, nothing to see here..

i now wish something would happen to your clubs as mentioned, and see how you would handle it.. it would be fun to see you turn face..

I did not expect a new club.. a lot of you guys posting negatively are not only very short sided, but obviously have failed to read the majority of the post..

The only club that happened to match my club was new.

it varied $50 between new and used.. the guy was a disgruntled employee and was unwilling to accept they screwed up.. not having my club for 2 weeks was unacceptable..

Let it go, Donnie!

I can see your point, but maybe you didn't handle it perfectly either.....at the end of the day, opinions are like a-holes....everyone's got one and they all stink except yours!!!!

Your right, I wouldn't have demanded a new club. I would have taken the demo...

But then again, I don't blame Donnie B for handling it the way he did. Like I said, he may be been a little too demanding in his request for a new club, but I can't fault him for being extremely aggrivated by them scratching his driver when he specficially told them to be careful of that.

LOL..

For the last time..

I DIDNT DEMAND A NEW CLUB..

I had the demo in my hand, it stickered for 349.00.. i looked at the new clubs, which had my exact model specs, it stickered 399.00. I didnt see it as that big a deal..

LOL..

By exact model specs you mean stiff shaft? I'm just curious how you came to the conclusion that you need that specific stiff shaft if you just bought the club 2 weeks ago.

wow, this thread got huge fast! i only got thru the first 2 pages, but I have to side with the OP (Donnie_Brasco) on this one. he specifically told the guy to be careful and not scratch his new club, but the guy poo-poo'd (didnt listen to) him, didnt respect the customers merchandise, and scratched it anyway.
i think he is justified in wanting the EXACT loaner club that he currently uses, not something with a regular flex shaft when he uses a stiff flex shaft.... as long as i understand this correctly (they ended up loaning him his EXACT club, but it was brand new instead of a used one with a regular flex shaft), I dont see what the problem is. they F'd up the guys club. give him the same club as a loaner for 2 weeks while they fix their screw-up. it was THEIR fault.... just my opinion though

the V2 offered the diamanna bb as a stock shaft per say..

i got a deal on a v2 with a tfc ping stiff shaft..

i purchased a once pulled shaft that came out of v2 to replace the one in it..

the only used/demo club they had was v2 with reg flex.

Only thing is, they ended up GIVING him the new club for his used club and he still wasn't satisfied, so he came here to rant.

i think he was satisfied at that point..but still, he said his club was basically new and thats why he wanted it taken care of. and they didnt take care of it. i think its their fault.... but we all have our own opinions on how it should've been handled, and this is my opinion. his club was basically new and they scratched it up.
