Costco Putters are in... (MOD EDIT - NO CORONAVIRUS, POLITICS, BUY/SELL/TRADE POSTS)

[cjpsse]

Crap... missed it... now I have to wait for the next release, which will 3pc putter instead of the magical 4pc, never to be seen again.

[TheMoneyShot]

Best return policy in the game?

I have a feeling this is going to be like their CaddyTek pull carts have been since COVID 19 for those who missed out. Those come in and out randomly and don’t last long when they do come back.

[TheMoneyShot]

I wonder how many putters vs weight kits were produced?

[t4t3r]

The caddyteks are in demand because people have been forced to walk for the past month, so actual necessity (in the context of needing one to be able to play golf). Completely different demand than the putter which I'm sure will be available in time. They are sitting in stores and haven't even been widely distributed to actual warehouses yet.

[TheMoneyShot]

I was told they are shipping some of the units (putters) in stores to fill online orders. The guy I spoke to said the supply will not be able to keep up with the demand. I guess they did not make that many which makes no sense at all.

I purchased two putters and two weight kits online early Saturday morning (one for me and one for a buddy in my golf group). Both of our putters were marked shipped Sunday morning (to arrive Thursday) - but no update on the weight kits yet..

[TheMoneyShot]

Same, no shipping info on my weight kit either.

The weight kit is the wild card as I clicked on a posted link and was able to purchase but searches on the site resulted in “item not found”. I’m wondering if they have some technical glitches that remove out of stock items from searches but allows the actual link to be visited.

[TheMoneyShot]

If you got a confirmation number you should be good to go.

[t4t3r]

Costco cancels orders regularly unfortunately. On a smaller volume item like the weight kit though, it's reasonable to be optimistic if you placed an order, especially Saturday morning.

[TheMoneyShot]

Has anyone received a shipping notification for the weight kit yet? Wonder if these are being drop shipped straight from the vendor?

[dxdgenert]

Nothing for me but I only ordered yesterday during the phantom time when it was “available” again. Like Tater, I am all too familiar with Costco’s penchant for canceling orders that are seemingly in stock so I’m not going to be surprised if it happens.

[TheMoneyShot]

Not one person has received confirmation for the weight kit yet. This is turning into one big cluster ****

[dxdgenert]

If you were expecting anything less, you don’t know Costco golf releases ?

[TheMoneyShot]

Yeah, this my first Costco golf release. Not very impressed...

[ASN21]

No shipping confirmation but I did get an order confirmation.

[TheMoneyShot]

Yeah, I got an order confirmation too but nothing more than that.

[dxdgenert]

?Hold your breath

Make a wish

Count to three

Come with me

And you'll be

In a world of pure imagination ?

Stock shortages, order cancellations, highly profitable secondary flipping markets and abject product failures await you!

 

[TheMoneyShot]

Lol, oh I know. I go through this all the time with Jordan releases, so I’m used to this sort of thing. Just didn’t think it would be like this with Costco.

[dbdors]

Mine now shows shipped today with UPS tracking

 

[TheMoneyShot]

Sweet! At least they are starting to ship now.

[dxdgenert]

No email notice but... My weight kits have shipped, as well.

[rlb4]

I just got an email that my weight kit shipped.

[poundSignJeff]

Damn my Costco had about 24 of them in stock, after reading all these comments I couldnt believe they were there. I just bought one, playing tomorrow I hope it can handle me.

[TheMoneyShot]

It amazes me on how prices continue to rise for this putter on eBay. Crazy...

[MaxBuck]

Looked at the putter at my local Costco last week. Couldn't really see a reason to buy it. Not as "premium" in materials or appearance as I'd hoped.

[titleistforged]

Ugh mine says shipped, but with zero updates to the tracking. Supposed to arrive today but doesn't look like it. Fingers crossed nothing goes wrong..

[TheMoneyShot]

Mine was supposed to be delivered today but now it says Thursday. Wtf?!?

[cohenfive]

I'm a bit bummed that the sf bay area got a total of zero of these..and that I missed the online stock when they had them. I'll probably try the putter when they come back in stock...I missed the first ksigs the same way, ended up swooping in for the second batch! Too bad you can't track stock at costco like at some other merchants, at least not local stock. Glad some of you gals/guys are getting the putter.
