Pro Shop Price - Gravity Shift
« on: May 26, 2008, 02:58:23 PM »
I want to support my local pro shop but I'm curious...
How much are the Gravity Shifts going for in your town ?

Here, they're going for $259.
That's with drilling, grips and slug of course, but plus tax is around $280.

If the pro shop prices are getting out of hand, I'm going to have to purchase online.

I agree that proshops have to make money, but the price you quoted is gouging (IMO).  We sell them for $199 +tax with fitting/layout/drilling/grips included.  An extra $10 for a thumb slug.

If I lived where you live I'd never have to buy a ball off the internet again!

I guess with my pro shop guy that loyalty counts.  He just sold me a Gravity Shift for 190 cash out the door, grips and slug included.  And for what it's worth, he's in NY suburbs.  I've been going to him for the better part of 8 years and do 2-3 balls per year, so maybe he takes better care of me than most.

And, as far as "me the consumer", I wouldn't trade his expertise for the world.

Here in Owego NY I charge $195 drilled with inserts. Sales tax and slug are extra. This also includes my Honor Score incentive as well as free clean up and touch up for a year.
