You guys got me all restless to see what comes in the mail! Luckily they should all come in one package. I ordered 5 different color combos... Who knows. Maybe I will get a few with tassels and a few with poms. it will give me a reason to order more

Got my second package yesterday in two days and I noticed some differences. The leather patches look intact and in great new condition than the ones I received earlier which were peeling. The tassel driver headcovers are easier to deal with than the poms but are available only in limited colors.- green and white. The green set would be great for Masters' time though. There ares some limited edition versions - Black, yellow , red etc - that appear better.
My buddies and I have a new use for the cut-off poms - they are great for tossing around while waiting for your turn. They are also pretty good for the forearm together drill takeway!! The headcovers are great and my boss is ordering a lot of sets to give away to clients this summer.

I got it free when I ordered my second set of headcovers using g the code that's on one of these pages. Did anyone else order the putter cover? I got mine the other day in the first package in white and green and it looks great, fits perfect over a small mallet or blade putter. I wanted a hc with no velcro and this one seems to be a keeper. I was surprised at the quality of it as well. Hopefully the tassel headcovers that are supposed to be here today look just as good.

I jumped on this shortly after it was posted initially and ordered 3 (2 poms & 1 tassel) for my x-utility and fli-hi's. who would have thought that a utility headcover according to iliac would be for NOT a utility? I wish I had the info that I should have gotten the hybrid cover for my purposes. We'll see what they look like when they come in.

If they don't fit well, would anyone be up for a trade for their hybrid covers? I don't even play more than one FW wood in the bag, if that.

Don't have a picture if black/black but its all black with one little thin white stripe at top. The Pom looks like a basketball lol

[flipmode]

Looks like they are on ebay already. Take a look at the UPC with G17C3 written on it. Exactly how mine came from RBG. Cant say I blame the guy for trying to turn a profit though!

at least its free shipping ha! Can't blame him for trying though. I would have went more conservative around $60 shipped for all 3 ha

[jaw2k9]

Me too, I have 3 sets, 1 arrived, another on the way, and a third doing the FEDEX ground Mambo.

I will see which look nicest - of the 3 sets and the other 2 will be ebayed - for a reasonable price. Not for $110 free shipping!

And, I have sets of 5 - Driver, 3 wood, utility, and 2 hybrids.

I would likely ask about $80 shipped for the 5 at worst (probably less) - but some people, greed rules.

They don't have pupils in their eyes, they have dollar signs (like the old cartoons).

Too greedy. He should have gone for less...

Haha.m I mean he's making about a $40-$50 profit.

[RookieBlue7]

I sent him a message we'll see if he replies. Lol. Flood him with messages. Ask him why if they aren't in stores Rock Bottom has them for $5.99

[RookieBlue7]

It gets better. Says he's never heard of Rock Bottom Golf. Says these came from his buddy on tour. I replied with funny, they're marked with Rock Bottom's SKU.

I'm gonna put up a listing I believe with pictures of Iliac's that say "learn how to buy iliac wool headcovers for $5.99 instead of $100 a set". See how it goes. Ill put it at a $0.99 BIN

[stealthrt91]

I'm going to offer him $17.97 and increase is a penny every time he declines

[RookieBlue7]

Now he says he's gonna lower the price. He said his "buddy" could've got them from there, I'm gonna make a $0.99 listing with a screen cap of their website

[eddie_max]

I got my covers today and I am disappointed. First off, I ordered two sets: Black/black driver, 3 wood, utility; and Black/Gold/White/Argyle driver, 3 wood, utility.

- I only received 4 total. Neither of my driver head covers were included but my credit card is still charged for the full amount.
- The argyle utility cover is 3 inches longer than the black/black utility cover.
- The black/black 3 wood cover literally looks like it is in used condition. The white is faded to an almost brown color, the whole cover is extremely stretched out and the leather patch is creased throughout.

The two argyle ones I am happy with. They fit snug and are very nice. Other than that, not worth it IMHO.

Got my tassel covers today and love them. The poms will be on ebay for sure.

First off I said - at most, now, factor in what I pay for shipping, both to receive them and send them priority mail (the only one I use) - Say $20, another $8ish for paypal and ebay fees, and I am about $60, if I am able to sell at $75 - that's $15.

Just saying.

Hmm package says it was delivered to my office but I have been here this whole time and haven't seen anything! And then I got an email saying one of them might be out of stock? Let's see how this plays out...too bad too, I was really looking forward to the two as a set.
[/quote]

I received an email too but have a FedEx tracking number showing something in route.... Hopefully the email is wrong because I really wanted a full set of matching covers. This happens all the time when deals like this pop up and there is a mad rush. I'd like to think that most people plan on using all the sets they ordered and aren't just looking to resell at a profit.

[RookieBlue7]

Least they didn't decide your address didn't exist on the first attempt (FedEx Ground). Funny thing? FedEx Express delivered the same day (different drivers and terminals).

[DJ412]

Just received my Black/White/Gold Argyle Limited Edition set. I got 1 Driver, 1 3 wood, 1 Utility, and 2 hybrids. All showed up in plastic with the original "twine" keeping them folded right. Leather patches are perfect, all arrived with poms as I ordered. I didn't try them on my clubs but they look perfect. I guess I'm in the minority with a good order.

I ordered Sunday afternoon.

I'm super happy for this deal. Now I have to find a matching stand bag

[umassgolfer]

So weird DJ412 - I ordered mine on Friday (granted, afternoon, but still) - same colors, Driver and 3w, plus one other, but the driver HC was sold out. Good luck for you i guess!

Has anyone had luck getting refunds from them or do you know if they make you pay shipping for a replacement? I asked RBG via email - waiting for response.

Edit - I do love the 3 wood one that came though. Super cool addition to the bag and I don't have to advertise for Taylormade anymore!

Like three days ago, Sunday? I ordered last week. Waiting ...

[DJ412]

Yes I ordered Sunday the 24th at 11:50 AM according to my order confirmation. To be honest it's about time my order didn't get screwed up for one of these sales. The last 2 GPP, 1 Budget Golf and too many to count Golfsmiths I've gotten the short end of the stick.

[wetdogsmell]

Ugh.... Email wasn't a mistake. They are out of the driver cover I ordered but mailed out the 3W and Hybrid covers. I didn't want to substitute a different color for the Driver so i'll be sending the other 2 back. Kind of odd that they would ship out an incomplete order.

[eddie_max]

I ordered the Argyle Driver cover on Friday afternoon, you ordered the Argyle Driver cover on Sunday. You get yours; I don't because it's out of stock. That makes sense.

Nice supply chain management you have in place, RBG. Keep up the good work.


EDIT: Almost forgot - and still charge me for 6 covers even though only 4 were sent.



-end sarcasm

[CosmosMpower]

I got my set of red/white/blue covers and they seem decent. They are heavier than I thought and the hybrid headcover is quite small. It's a bit of a tight squeeze to get an Adams Super Hybrid (pro black) into the cover. The 3 wood cover seems a bit loose on my Burner 2.0 TP 3 wood.

[Chief Illiniwek]

Got my set after seven days. Black/black, one of each and came exactly as ordered. No quality issues with mine and for the price I'm very happy. Driver and 3w poms are a little big for my taste. Thanks again OP!

Greed would be attempting to sell each cover in sets of 2 or something - like the fellow that was caught earlier today - who still has his prices well above what I would have asked. IF (And there is no promise of me even trying to sell them), and only if I do sell them, I would think $15 for the time and other intangibles is not unreasonable for a set of 5. The other fellow was looking at $90 profit originally, and now is still looking at about $40 or so.

Another thought on greed, that would be someone purchasing with a distinct desire to flip them - I don't have that. I bought 1 set, liked them, bought another - because I liked the price versus quality, and then after the tassel style became available, ordered a set of them too.

I will keep 1 set, MAY sell 1 or 2, or may keep them. Most likely though will give them as gifts to a possible future son-in-law and his father.
