It's been so long...

...ok, I've been neglectful. Buying tons of stuff and not posting any of it here!

Plus, I sold my first club (set of clubs, actually).

I can't remember the exact purchases... I'll try my best:

GBB2 11* women's for my sis.
GBB2 7w off ebay ($55?).
983K w/ speeder ebay ($55?).

Ben Hogan hybrids 3h ($70 via 4gea), 4h ($60 +ship/tx ebay) .

Some steelhead HCs (3w, 7w) for about $12 including ship (4gea).

3+* wood steelhead for $20 (TGN pickup).

SOLD the 845Us for $120

New stuff II

The Big Bertha II Pro came in yesterday ($57 ebay+ship+tx) as well as the two Cobra SS headcovers ($8 + ship).

I also got a request to buy my Ping I3 blades. I offered $300 usd + shipping. We'll see how that goes.

Oh, and I'm picking up a 21* fli hi on Sun for $40. Woohoo!

Dug up my dad's Odyssey 2-ball... this thing is shweeeet. I may have found my starting putter!

I'm gradually becoming resigned to the fact that I am buying a golf club collection, not a single. set...

Oh, found out that my Tommy Armour 845U are considered ultra forgiving on Maltby. (ditto for the X-14s).

New stuff!!

Bought 15 sleeves of Ur-X Srixon balls a few days after boxing day. 3 sleeves for $10! These are prime balls, ya know...

Made a few bids for clubs that didn't win.

Then... won a set of steel Callaway X-14s for $180!!! I've seen them go for over $240 since then.

Best golf buy ever: got a BOM with new Fujikura vp80 shaft for $50! Had to drive almost to Oakville, tho.

Yesterday, paypalled someone $61 usd for a G2 anser orange dot putter... hoping I didn't get ripped off! The price was good. About the same as paying $45-50 cdn on a GT auction...

Other stuff I bought (not golf related) recently:
-upconverting DivX player ($99)
-MS wireless intellimouse ($20)
-City of Villains ($29)
-USB wirelessG adapter with hotspot detector ($49). must mail $12 rebate.
-Firefly series ($29)

Ebay clubs come in...

Got the TM Rescue Mid and Orlimar Hip Ti 315cc on Friday.

Unfortunately, the rescue had some marks on it that I couldn't see in the photo. Plus, I was feeling a little buyer remorse over it since I saw a few #4 rescues go for about $61 recently (I paid $69 for the #3). GolfTown took it back without a hitch. Kudos to their support!

The Hip looks beautiful, however. I think my dad'll like it. I can't believe I got it for $26...

Falling down a deep hole...

This Ebay thing has really bit me.

Bought a set of irons last week.

Then a hybrid.

Then another hybrid.

It's like I've found a new low in pricing, and I can't help but buy on these awesome deals.

I'm gonna give one of the hybrid's as an x-mas gift. Hey, it's not like I wanted to play with it. I just wanted to own in! I'm sick!

I discovered eBay!

Well, not really. What happened is that I found out that golf town now sells used clubs on ebay. The prices are EXTREMELY low compared to demo sales and online forums. I bet a profit could be made simply by winning GT stock and reselling it via these other sites.

Anyhoot, I've bid on several items only to be outbid by others... I could be wrong about the prices - they might skyrocket when the time runs down? However, the last bid I was in on got sold at a steal... (96 bucks for titleist irons!)

Will I be anywhere near a PC at the right time of day is the question... stay tuned!
