Ordered a combo graphite new set of Cobras from an auction on ebay off a reputable seller. I already sold and shipped the irons and was planning on keeping the hybrids. It has been safely in a box. The plastic is still covering the hybrid but when I turn the club upside down a piece is loose inside the shaft.  Is there zero chance it came like this? Can I send to Cobra? Out of luck?

Sounds like a chunk of epoxy broke loose. Can happen if too much epoxy is used to put the club together and you get a big clump inside the shaft.

It will come out if you remove the grip, right? I don't see why you couldn't contact Cobra if you bought it from an authorized dealer, but if they're old clubs that aren't under warranty anymore I'm not sure what they will do for you.

Yep, like @billchao said, it's probably a piece of epoxy that broke loose.  You might be able to have the factory grip removed and the object in the shaft will fall out when the club is turned upside down.  Or you may have to spring for a new grip.  The performance shouldn't be affected by this object breaking loose.
