Re: Selling clubs on Ebay...why do people pay more?

Yes, I did that for two recent purchases. I got a Nike Sumo Sasquatch 460 Plus a TaylorMade Dual Rescue (#3) for a total of $75 (+ $14 shipping). The TaylorMade was as nice as the one I bought (#4) a few months earlier, new, for $230, and I got the driver to boot. I bet I can put the driver back up and get back over $100. Speaking of which, my son's 2005 Callaway FT-3, which we put on at $55, just closed at $113. Like you said, you have to set a price and stick to it...you may lose a bunch, but the one you get may likely be a nice deal.

I guess some people just get caught up in a bidding frenzy or something and don't want to miss out on an item as it were?
