Is there anywhere that buys back, or trades, unused, brand new golf balls?

For example, I've been trying out several different balls lately to try to settle on one. But after trying a lot of them, I've decided that I don't care for some of them very much and do not want to use them. So I was wondering if there was anywhere that I could take them and they'd buy them back (even if for pennies on the dollar) or something like that?

Or, are they just a learning experience sitting in my house for all eternity (or at least until I decide I want to go hit them into the water somewhere)?

If you find some, let me know - I've got a closet full, and I've only been playing 3 years

I find giving them to friends who are starting, or who just plain aren't good, is a nice way to get rid of them. I try to give them away by types, so they can experience some consistency.

Or, if you got balls that are the wrong type for you - such as when I was trying Bridgestone's B330 - give them to a good player who can use them. I gave a leftover sleeve of B330 to a friend who hits the ball a mile, and watched him hit a personal-best 9 holes yesterday.

So, while I don't know how to sell them, I do know how to get rid of them.

Try Ebay. I frequently buy balls off there. I got 8 dozen callaway warbirds for $50 shipped.
