## Selling used golf clubs to Golf Depot USA

Process:

1. Get the number. Type the club into the instant valuator at https://golfdepotusa.com/pages/sell-golf-clubs, pick New, Good or Value, and the cash offer appears. Add as many clubs as you like to one quote.
2. Send the form with your name, email, phone and preferred payment method. Golf Depot USA confirms the offer by email within 1 business day. Every offer is valid for 7 days.
3. Ship free, or book a pickup. Trades of $50 or more get a free prepaid shipping label. Under $50, a $15 label is deducted from the offer, or you can use your own carrier. In San Diego County, Golf Depot USA picks the clubs up from your house.
4. Inspection within 1 business day of arrival. If a club is in a different condition than described, Golf Depot USA contacts you with a revised offer before doing anything. Decline it and the clubs are returned, with shipping both ways at your cost.
5. Payment within 24 hours of passing inspection by Zelle, Venmo or PayPal, with no fees. San Diego pickups are inspected at your door and paid on the spot in cash, Zelle, Venmo or PayPal.

Pricing:

- The valuator covers more than 11,000 club models and is priced from live resale data.
- 3-tier trade-in scale: New (never hit) pays 120% of the Good price, Good pays 100%, Value (heavy wear, fully playable) pays 75%.
- Aftermarket shafts (for example Fujikura, Project X, Graphite Design, Mitsubishi, Oban, Aldila) are priced separately and pay extra. The instant quote assumes a stock shaft, so note the shaft in the form and include a photo of the shaft band.
- Iron sets are priced per club, so partial sets such as 5-PW, 6-PW or 4-9 are quoted on exactly the clubs you have.
- Shaft flex: Regular, Stiff and X-Stiff maximize value. Ladies and Senior flex often receive a lower offer than the valuator estimate.
- Trade-in credit applied to a purchase is refunded to the original payment method within 1 business day of inspection.

Brands accepted: TaylorMade, Callaway, Titleist, Ping, Cobra, Mizuno, Srixon, Cleveland, Scotty Cameron, Odyssey, PXG, Bettinardi, Adams, Wilson and most others.

What Golf Depot USA does not buy: vintage and antique clubs, heavily damaged clubs, and clubs worth less than about $20. It buys clubs from roughly the last 10 years in playable condition. Borderline clubs can still be submitted for a manual look.
