For instance, I put up a beat up Vokey spin-milled wedge, covered with scratches, for $5 and it sold for $40.
Are you sure the club didn't come with a better shaft or something? If it didn't, then well, people are stupid, what else can I say?

But I still love Ebay. I got a brand new V2 shaft for $30 once. I stuck in my Burner, and couldn't be happier.. and to think I was about to spend $85 on the same shaft in Golfsmith.. HA! I don't think so!

Ebay is just wierd like that.. I've seen things that are worth a fortune, sell for nothing, and then seen other things that are worthless sell for bundles. Ya'll should check out the totally bizarre section sometime- I once saw a Walmart bag sell for 13 grand on there..
