Help and Advice
Below are some hints and tips on selling and purchasing of Golf Equipment and Services.
Selling
Firstly we would like to wish you the very best of luck in selling your item.
Price
In pricing your item be as realistic as you possibly can. Do a bit of research to see what similar products have sold for recently. If you check on this site it will give you an idea.
Don't price the item too high as people will ignore your advert and choose a cheaper one.
Advert
Take Clear Photographs from as many angles as possible (remember you can place up to 5 photographs for each particular item in your advert, depending on the type of advert you choose to use)
Be specific in your adverts. The more exact your information is the more people will be interested in your advert.
Give as much contact details as possible - give an email address and a phone number just in case you are not contactable. Otherwise potential purchasers may just give up.
Communication with Buyers
Keep details of all callers so that if a deal falls through you can move on to the next person on the list. Also you may have something similar to sell in the future so you could contact them to see if they are still interested.
Viewing
Before the potential buyer comes to view the item for sale make sure you have all the necessary details to show them.
If the item is in bad need of repair either make sure repairs or done or be honest with the purchaser so that everone knows where they stand.
Payment
Either Cash or a bank draft is the safest form of payment. However if you receive a cheque make sure the funds are cleared before allowing the purchaser to take the item with them.
Buying
The above information applies to the buyer also, but in "reverse"!
Contacting the Seller
Have a list of questions you want to ask written and in front of you when ringing the seller. It is easy to forget to ask an important question and you don't want a wasted journey if you go to view the item.
Viewing
Make sure you test the item. It is the only way you will get a good "feel" as to whether it is suitable for your requirements.
Finally, all the best with your purchase!
