Best place to buy shafts?

[VanTheMan0519]

I typically use GolfWorks but looks like they are about if the shafts I am looking for. 
 

Anyone tried Grips4Less or another online dealer?

Your best bet might be EBay. Buy from a shaft dealer that has great feedback. I’ve had good luck doing it that way. Good luck.

Billy Bob’s is reputable.

Over the years, I’ve bought shafts from GolfWorks, Grips4Less, TourShopFresno, ShaftTechnologies (via both Amazon and eBay), PGASS, and ValueGolf. All have been fine to work with.

Depending what you are looking for Global Golf, 2nd Swing and Rock Bottom Golf have some good deals.

I’ve used golf shafts America in the past.

If you're okay with used - Proclubs has some pretty good deals. I've bought a few shafts from them recently for a bit cheaper than I've seen on other used sites/marketplaces.

I bought a “used” Oban Kiyoshi and it came still in the wrapper, new tip. So also new shafts that they call used. Love Proclubs

Nothing but great experiences with Grips4Less. Plus they're the only ones I can find that stock Modus 120 TX

100% agree with this. Dallas Golf is extremely easy to deal with. Huge selection, fair pricing and easy to get what tip and grip that you prefer.

Steel Shafts and Specialized Wedge Shafts - Golfworks and Grips4Less.  Graphite typically Dallas Golf and a few other eBay sellers with high approval .

I've had decent luck with all those said above, and would also throw out a reco for Mike's Golf Outlet. Have bought a couple used wood shafts and the pictures are accurate. They almost always have an extra 10-15% off.

In general … If you can’t find them from the buy/sell forum here.

eBay and Golfworks are good sources.  It depends on what you are looking for, though.  I'd never buy a high end driver shaft from Golfworks.  Way too expensive.

What is the rules for getting trade price? Everything seems to be full retail?

For golfworks it's primarily based on how much you spend annually.

 

This is about 5 years old - don't know if it's changed since then.

I've bought new shafts with tips and grips installed from Dallas Golf.  I got burned on ebay so I haven't even looked there in years.  If it's not here I don't buy used.

I'm in the midst of my first used shaft purchase on ebay, hoping it goes smooth cause I got a great deal.  The best route for me was buying the full club at a great price.  I'll give it a run with the included head but eventually sell it or keep it as a back-up.

The time to start worrying is when you get a great deal !
