Someone a couple posts mentioned..."doesn't make any business sense" in selling these items for these outrageous prices...

The reason they are sold this way...is because some 3rd party bought these already discounted and unwanted "box loads of misc" stuff at an auction that sports chalet/authority sold to them to sell for whatever amount. The winning bidder was probably kmart/sears who then aquired these "random" labeled sporting goods...and then believe this...are "flipping, them for whatever to make some....profit as well....

Yes....the hardcore golfers know the street value of these products.....but kmart doesn't care...they wanna just get rid of it. Bottom line....everyone wins.

No, my response was to the person saying that Dick's was getting out of the golf business. If that was the case, they could easily clearance the goods in their stores and cut inventory down to the junk and then sell that off to the liquidators. People are finding stuff like mizzys, M1/2 woods, etc. Dick's knows they are worth more than $70.

 

Kmart/sears have nothing to do with the liquidation at their stores. These things are run by 3rd party liquidators just like the Sports Authority liquidation was. They didn't buy out anyone, they had no cash to do so. If they did, this stuff would have showed up in their stores a while ago in hopes to help their business before they closed stores.

 

No offense, but your perception of how these things work is off.

Need to know who the bootyhole is that purchased only the 9 Iron from the Mizuno JPX EZ Forged set at West Allis Kmart!!! Well I have the rest of the set! Hah!

 

It was me, and I wish you good luck with the hole in your set.

Since you used "bootyhole," you may send your apology and initial offer for your missing club to [email protected] . :cheesy:

 

Lmao. Since they were so cheap, I can afford to pay for a new 9 iron. Thank god people sell single clubs. :rofl:

Went back tonight and snagged a few more things. e5fe4a25f81136dc4eec080cc5114fb8.jpge620e34c27aa8f98ea4f82c36166577c.jpg679481df285b72ed86dcc1f2c6b173c9.jpg8a140bd57fdc3a126e946fb13156db9e.jpg

Are these all sets or did you actually just buy only those clubs pictured?

 

Only the clubs pictured. At $3 a club, why not?

 

Congratulations, I'm glad you snagged them! Frankly, I'm surprised they were still there as I had set most of them up in plain view so they would be easy to find.

I didn't know about the sale until my father called me today. I swung by and a bunch of titleist drivers and a Bridgestone and a couple SLDR C was there. I got these 3 for $70 each. My bag is set so my brothers and a cousin asked me to buy these for them.

The Sears in Overland Park at 95th and Metcalf has had M1's for sale.

I picked up a GBB for $35 and a Ping wedge for $21.

When I went there yesterday, they had a Bettinardi putter in left hand for $70.

They also had a bunch of SLDR C woods and a few Cobra hybirds for $70 also.

 

Wow. Would have killed for a lefty Betti at my local sales.

The Betti was a BB55.

 

 

 

If I'm in the area I can see if it's still there and I'll get it for you. Cost+shipping.
