That’s exactly my concern! What kind of value did you end up getting?
I traded in a set of older woods and ended up with about 30% of retail value—pretty standard, I guess. Just keep your expectations in check.

I remember years ago, I was shocked when I got $100 for a driver I thought was worthless! Sometimes you just never know what they’ll value.
That’s a pleasant surprise! Has anyone experienced being turned down for trade-in? I’ve heard mixed stories about condition requirements.
Yeah, I was once refused on a set because the grips were too worn. They are strict on condition, so make sure your clubs are in decent shape before going in.

Good to know! I’ll be sure to clean up my clubs before taking them in. Thanks for the tip!
I think the trade-in experience really depends on who you talk to. I got an amazing value once, but another time I felt like I barely got anything.
Sounds like a roll of the dice! Maybe I’ll just bring in a few clubs at a time!
True! And don’t forget to check for sales when you’re trading in. It can make a difference for the value you get!
I’ve traded in clubs at Roger Dunn before, and generally, they offer decent values, especially on name-brand clubs. However, I would recommend doing a little research on values from other retailers as well.

Absolutely! I’ve noticed that places like Golf Galaxy often have better trade-in values, especially for hybrids and drivers. It might vary by region, but it’s good to explore options.
It’s interesting how trade-in values can differ. Roger Dunn has a pretty structured trade-in policy, while some smaller shops might offer more flexibility and negotiation. Anyone experienced that?
I agree with you, joshua53. Some stores give you a bonus on top of the trade-in if you buy new clubs from them. So, if you’re eyeing something new, that might tip the scales in their favor.
Exactly! Roger Dunn sometimes runs promotions too, so keep an eye on that. You could potentially get more value during a sale period.

I’ve found Roger Dunn’s staff to be quite knowledgeable and supportive. They helped me determine my clubs’ best values based on condition and brand. It felt genuine, unlike some other places I’ve tried.
What’s the range you usually see in trade-in values at Roger Dunn? I’m just curious how it compares to other places, like Dick’s Sporting Goods or PGA Tour Superstore!
I had an underwhelming experience with trade-ins at Dick’s. They offered me nearly half of what I got from Roger Dunn for my old set. Kind of disappointing, really.
That’s shocking! Sounds like Roger Dunn might have a stronger grasp on used club values. They definitely seem to trust their pricing more.
To each their own, but I’ve had the opposite experience! Tried trading at a local shop and felt like I got ripped off. So it’s good to hear Roger Dunn is consistently better!
Humorously enough, I once traded in a driver that I thought was a total dud, and they valued it more than I expected. Maybe they’re just optimistic at Roger Dunn!
