Buy safer and sell faster

Golfstix Verified™

Golfstix Verified™ is an optional verification service available at checkout (or required by sellers) to prevent buyer scams and seller fraud.

Upon purchase, the item is shipped to the nearest Golfstix verification facility and a video recorded inspection takes place. Our industry experts open each package to ensure the contents match the item description and examine materials and craftsmanship to determine if an item is fake or counterfeit.

Legally speaking, only the original equipment manufacturer can certify authenticity. However we can regularly spot a fake upon close inspection and advise users accordingly. Sellers distributing fake or counterfeit items are banned from Golfstix and buyers are protected through our Golfstix Protected™ Money Back Guarantee.

If everything is as good as advertised, the item is securely repackaged and shipped to the buyer with exclusive partner promos and additional swag.

Buyers requesting returns of Golfstix Verified items must ship the item back to the nearest Golfstix verification facility to ensure contents of the return package are the same as the original. After passing inspection we then ship the return package back to the Seller, assuring trust between users and preventing scammers.

Our Story

It started with the most iconic putter in golf history, a vintage Ping Dalehead Anser I bought on eBay for $60. An all-original Wilson 8802 putter soon followed. Fast forward roughly a hundred putters later and my novel interest in rolling vintage putters quickly grew into an obsession of collecting the latest and greatest in premium milled putters.

Although relatively unknown to the golf public, the niche market for fine milled putters is a very real thing, with a loyal and passionate following among enthusiasts. Handmade by craftsmen all over the world, you won’t find these works of art at your local pro shop. They’re custom ordered directly from the small, boutique manufacturer or bought from independent sellers online.

I browsed, bought and sold like a stock market day trader, collecting putters like wine and trying them all. Through my experience of buying and selling on independent seller marketplaces, it was clear there were several common problems, including both buyer and seller fraud among other user experience issues. With premium golf equipment being so expensive, it was no surprise to see how ‘counterfeit listings’ and ‘marketplace scams’ were often the topic of discussion on golf trading forums. I soon realized I had the answer to change this narrative.

So I recruited a talented team of devs and golf industry professionals and we embarked on the mission to eliminate fraud and provide a best-of-breed marketplace dedicated to avid golfers, collectors, and club traders. Focused on an enhanced user experience with increased trust between users, Golfstix was created to be a better marketplace, offering more value to buyers and sellers of premium golf products.
