    Actually they do look cheap (£245 for new titleist AP2s, €799 in Dundrum). However, all I can say is that some of the pics they show of the new titleist irons they are the old titleist irons. At these prices I'd be very sceptical.

    Deja vu, there's hardly a day that goes by without the same question getting asked. You've a answered it yourself!

    The website is registered in Shanghai, if the **** English didn't spell it out for you perhaps this might!

    was thinking da same always to gud to b true.

    Very true Jimjo, but to some the bargain of the century far outweighs the fact that the irons they have bought have been forged from a few roses tins

    This is getting to be a daily occurrence. At this stage a sticky to let people know what to look for would be easier than seeing new posts every day asking about cheap clubs on dodgy websites.


    If the prices are too good to be true they probably are.

    Enter the website address here http://www.allwhois.com to see where website is registered, if it's China there is a good chance the clubs are fake.

    Check the "About us" page - if it's full of pidgin english - avoid.

    If the only method of postage is EMS - it's probably coming from China so I would try elsewhere.

    thanks kagni youre right dat is a great tip to check websites.dont trust anything from china.

    I agree kagni, at this stage these posts are starting to do my head in along with where can I get GUI membership for a tenner. If there was a sticky perhaps they would be easier to avoid and the same questions wouldn't have to asked again and again.
