Anyone use this website before- http://www.3balls.com/
I was wondering how their service is?

Also, if anyone knows of any other good golf centered bidding/used websites, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance guys

Never used them personally, but they have a pretty solid rep over at golfwrx.com.

Yeah, I've scored some deals there, too. Just be aware that you're not getting any warranties if you buy through RBG.

What did you buy from them if you don't mind me asking?

Quite a bit of stuff over the last few years: clubs, gloves, a stand bag, umbrella. If you're not dead set on having this season's new must-have equipment, they usually have awesome deals on stuff that's a year or 3 old. The stand bag I got was an Ogio discontinued model (T-Zone). I think it cost me less than 1/3 retail.
I never had an issue with a purchase from RBG. I just wanted to point out the warranty thing. Something to think about if you're making a big purchase.

I have used 3balls and RBG--both are fantastic sites, in fact I believe they are the best. I have purchased various things from both (putters, apparel, balls, etc.) and would definitely buy from either without hesitation.

I would add gppgolf to the list of great sites.

James,

Did you purchase any used clubs from 3 balls?

Thanks for the input James. I may have to try them out.

My pleasure Sir. I hope you find what you are looking for

BTW, the forums at golfwrx.com have a pretty active BST. Some of the members over there are serious club hos. They might game a new driver, iron set, etc. for a round or two, decide it doesn't fit their game, and dump it on the BST. I scored an Odyssey putter at the beginning of last season for around 60% retail, and I couldn't even tell it had been played: still had the shaft stickers, even.

It's like cbid or the BST here. You just have to know your prices.

That can be a good thing or a bad thing

Mugen910 · 04-13-2010, 09:51 PM

I wanna get another SC putter but have no clue what's a good price there...

3 Balls does have a lot of rep over at golfwrx.

Cheaper golf gear means more left over for smokes.

They have one over at 3 Balls for a good price. Studio Newport for $140.

Heh, Scottys are like Mac/PC. Some of his accessories are ridiculous, like the $40 ball marker.
