At Golfstixvalueguide.com we rate your golf clubs in three different categories: New, Average or Below Average condition. Please use the following descriptions and photos to help correctly identify the type of condition your clubs are in.
PLEASE NOTE: Any wedges that are "Stamped/Engraved" with initials or names will automatically be deemed in "Below Average" condition upon being received.
New Condition - Clubs considered in new condition are either still in original plastic or out of plastic with no visual signs of wear. These clubs have never been hit, however they may show signs of minor shop wear.
Average Condition - Clubs considered in average condition have been previously used and exhibit signs of normal wear. The majority of the wear is cosmetic and can be seen throughout the club head. Acceptable wear includes normal ball marks and scratching on the face; normal scratching on the sole and light scratches or paint chips on/around the crown. No skymarks, dents, or rattles. Shafts and grips should be in playable condition as well with normal wear.
Below Average Condition - Clubs considered in below average condition have seen heavy usage and exhibit signs of moderate to excessive wear. These clubs often have skymarks, dings, nicks, shaft burns, groove loss or browning on the face. Regardless of wear, these clubs are still in playable condition and the overall integrity of the clubs are still in tact. Shafts may have scratches and grips worn. We do not accept clubs with broken shafts, cracked or dented heads or any other feature that would affect the clubs performance.
