    Has anyone ever used this website?? www.golfshop365.com

    Yesterday, in a moment of madness and against my better judgement, I bought a Ping Rapture V2 driver on this site for significantly less than it would cost on most other sites.

    In the cool light of day, I'm beginning to feel that I've made a major boo boo. Even though the site is very professionally built, there are a couple of little things that are making me feel more than a little suspicious.

    Have any of you guys used this site??

    Site looks extremely good and above board alright - although looks can be very very deceiving on that Interweb thingy.

    Let us know the verdict on your Rapture when it arrives - if it does actually arrive ;-)

    Prague office, US dollars, Ping clubs ........... Alarm bells

    The websites are real, it's just the products are non-existent :-]. But you are correct, nobody should give out their CC number without doing a 2 minute google and checking it out. I know Licksy had an announcement for some time entitled "If it looks too good to be true....". Caveat emptor.

    It's hardly that surprising now is it?. There's one born every minute.

    Fixed your post. Your judgement was correct and you still went ahead. Still it could have been for a lot more money. Lesson learnt the hard way.

    I have bought a few clubs online but have always stuck with sites that have good reviews.
