Common sense tell me it is a limited edition just from the fact it is a branded bag, not something you are likely to see for sale at a retailer. What is it worth ? That one is apparently worth $325 if you are willing to pay that. My guess is that bag was made for a corporate event and given to V.I.P. 's I have been on several corporate outings as media and it is not uncommon to get cool swag like that bag as a gift. Send the guy an email and ask where he got it. If it was a gift I bet he will take considerable less for it.

When a company makes a club in the USA I will proudly display their brand here. All of mine were made in china by somebody making $2 a day. Shame on you Mr club manufacture.

Something like that is "worth" whatever a willing seller is willing to sell it for, and what a willing buyer is willing to pay for it.  It doesn't have an intrinsic value.  The seller seems to want $325 for it.  To me, that's paying a big premium for the Snickers branding;  there are some nice Ogio bags at the golf shop near me for under $100.

Camo, thanks for your reply but I am not interested in buying the bag in the link I provided.  My question is directed towards people who actually have one of these bags.

Fair enough. My hunch is that they are not very common. Best of luck locating another owner of one. Just out of curiosity, what is your interest in the bag ? Looking to start a snickers golf club ?

You don't have to own one to know that it is essentially worthless.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

I doubt you'll find an owner of one of thse bags here.  And I wouldn't be discounting the opinions of those unfortunate enough not to own such a treasure.
Seriously - these bags would have been made for some corporate promotion and would have been given away.  Of course they would have been a "limited" edition.

Do you really think that they would have any value to anyone other than a collector of Snickers memorabilia, if such a person exists?  In other words, in addition to being one of the ugliest colour schemes imaginable, this bag would have virtually no market value at all.  If I had one I'd pay you to take it off my hands. :-)

Thanks for your opinion Shorty, but I am looking for facts.  My post may be a shot in the dark, then so be it.  Why would a collector be the only one interested in a Snickers golf bag?  There are millions of people who love Snickers candy bars.  So do people that have Callaway bags just collect Callaway memorabilia?  Nevermind, I will just go ahead and discount your opinion.

I love Snickers candybars but I have absolutely no interest in this bag. NONE.

I think he can get as many opinions as he wants, they'll all be similar. I could take or leave a Snickers bar, but I'd say no to that fugly bag even if it was free.

Callaway make golf equipment and most people would agree that most of their bags look quite nice.  There is a logical connection between a golf company and a golf bag.

Snickers are chocolate bars. This golf bag would be judged by 99% of the population to be hideously ugly.  They wouldn't use it because they fear they'd be laughed at.

I can state as a FACT that this bag has virtually no value.  The Snickers name on it actually DEVALUES it. The blue base colour devalues it even further to virtually zero dollars.

You can take that information from a person who has spent 25 years dealing in antiques and collectables.
