Terms and Conditions of the Sell/Trade Program

Minimum Condition Requirements

Golf Avenue only accepts golf club models that are listed in the Sell or Trade catalogue, available on the sell or trade page. Models that are not listed in the catalogue will not be accepted.

Golf Avenue does not accept:

• Counterfeit golf clubs
• Golf clubs with loft or lie adjustments of +/- 3⁰ of manufacturer standards
• Golf clubs with shortened or lengthened shafts of +/- 2 inches
• Golf clubs with a rattle in the head

Golf Avenue may accept, but adjust the value, for the following golf clubs:

• Iron Sets without a consecutive sequence of 5 irons (including a PW/Pitching wedge) will not qualify as an iron set; instead, the golf clubs will be considered individual irons
• Golf clubs with damaged grips will be accepted with a $5 per grip reduction from the value

Golf Avenue may accept, but adjust the Sell or trade quote accordingly, if:

• Golf Avenue is missing one or more of the items listed within the sale or trade quote
• The golf club(s) shipped to Golf Avenue differ in model, brand, or otherwise, from the golf clubs listed within the sale or trade quote

Golf Avenue reserves the right to refuse clubs or adjust the quote for any other issues or discrepancies determined upon inspection.

Communications and Procedures

Once the clubs have arrived at Golf Avenue’s warehouse, Golf Avenue will inspect that the golf clubs meet the acceptance criteria and will pay the customer via the selected payment method, within 24-48 business hours. Customers will be notified via email once the payment has been processed.

If, upon inspection, it is determined that an item requires an adjustment or reduction to its original quoted value (i.e.: due to a difference in model, problems with the grip or shaft, etc), Golf Avenue will automatically make the necessary adjustments to the quoted value and proceed to pay the customer the new value. Should the customer not accept the new value, they may contact Golf Avenue within 15 business days following the payment to reverse their sell or trade for this item (the customer will be responsible to pay a shipping fee of $9.99 to have their golf club returned to them).

If, upon inspection, an item is completely rejected, Golf Avenue will automatically make the necessary removals from the quote and proceed to pay the customer the remaining balance of the quote, if applicable. Should the customer wish to recuperate their rejected club(s), they may contact Golf Avenue within 15 business days (the customer will be responsible to pay a shipping fee of $9.99 to have their golf club(s) returned to them). If the customer does not contact Golf Avenue within 15 business days, Golf Avenue will dispose of the rejected items.

For any questions or concerns, customers may contact a Golf Avenue Sell or Trade Advisor ([email protected]), who will be happy to assist.

Sell or Trade Best Practices

Before shipping a club, we recommend that customers verify that their golf clubs meet Golf Avenue’s Minimum Condition Requirements. We also recommend packaging them properly in order to protect them during transit.

Golf Avenue encourages customers to do the following to ensure their clubs are adequately protected:

• Cover the golf club shaft in bubble wrap
• Protect the golf club head (an old sock could work great here)
• Pack clubs in a box that is appropriate in size
• Make sure to add filling material like packing paper to minimize movement of clubs inside the box
• Tape the box securely

Should customers not have access the adequate materials to pack their clubs, Golf Avenue offers a free pacing kit, complete will all necessary materials, on all quotes valued at $150 or more. For more information, please continue reading below.

Golf Avenue is not responsible for golf clubs that are damaged during transit.

Customers are recommended to pack their clubs safely, to ensure that no damage is incurred during transit.
