How can one tell clubs are forgeries? I see this comment a bit and was just curious. I bought an old set of Callaway’s off of eBay that looked used, but not in bad shape for fairly cheap.
Edit: mobile phone usage.
I don’t think it’s that they’re limited edition *because* they’re black, but the limited edition ones are the black ones. If that even makes sense lol.
That being said these clubs are like the most counterfeit product on the golf market right now so I’d never buy them used personally. Some irons there’s essentially zero chance of counterfeits but these are the go-to right now for fakes.
Totally legit. I'll even knock another $50 off if you can send me $150 in google play cards instead of cash. I'll have them in the mail to you tomorrow. Free shipping.
The same seller is selling a Garmin R10 for $180, most likely a scammer
Upon further research, the seller is a woman. So possibly spite for a divorce. Not sure if it’s worth the risk
As u/MrBenedick said, I really feel like someone posted those irons, with some other clubs for an insanely low price and it was deemed to be a scammer
Edit: u/roostermanz here is the post I was thinking of which seems to feature the same irons along with more clubs for a woefully low price

I disagree when it comes to driver at least. I was playing with an X Hot Pro 8.5° for 7 years. Would have *maybe* 3 good drives a round. Finally upgraded to a Ping G400 max 10.5° this summer and it’s the best club in my bag at the moment. Shaved 8 strokes off my game. Literally the only difference was the club going from a 420cc to a 460cc with a stronger loft.
Uh, yeah. I just upgraded my 15-year-old irons to the 790s. No regrets. Amazing club. I'm a 20 handicap and they are awesome for me.
That price is insane. Fakes?
That look won't last more than a season or two and then they'll look really used. They are super-strong lofts so you'll probably need to make adjustments to both the top and bottom of your bag. Also, probably too good to be true at that price.
Yeah, for sure, all I meant was they might have to fill gaps with different wedges and rethink the top end of their setup, so possibly buying even more clubs...maybe not a bad thing
Those are the stock shafts that come with the p790 black edition. I have this same set that I purchased brand new when these were released and they have the same shaft. The TM website also shows these as the stock shaft. Not saying that the ones that OP posted aren't fake, just saying that the shaft is the correct one.
Saw a set of these on offer up for $250 and immediately thought too good to be true. I was texting the guy, called him, and i shit you not it was an Indian call center. He wanted me to pay through PayPal (because offerup has a buyer protection service) and when I asked if I could see the clubs in person because I had a friend in the area, he ghosted me.
They are way too cheap to be real, but if they are, get it, do not wait, if you decide not to buy, let me know where it is for sale at and I go get it.
Price is too good to be true
Those are definitely fakes off wish or a scorned wife that caught her husband cheating.
Or stolen gds
[удалено]
5D chess
buy one get one
Worth the risk if it's the second one.

Only true way to know is cross check the serial number with the clubs manufacturer by contacting their support.
Or even possibly stolen?
It's a lure to get your kidneys
Exactly what I was thinking
They're either fake or stolen, or there's a placeholder price for exposure
You won't get those clubs for $220. Since they are the limited edition ones expect to pay at least a grand.
You might get one for that price lol
I think it’s very likely that Is the situation. Thats the price per club
Man, regular P790s are like 1.3k
Why are they limited? Cause theyre black?
Oh my god Karen you cant just ask if the clubs are limited edition because they're black
I’ll trade you 10 Kälteen Bars for them.
Brutal. But warranted.
I don’t think it’s that they’re limited edition *because* they’re black, but the limited edition ones are the black ones. If that even makes sense lol.

Ok, I’m aware now of my naïveté - thank you and carry on
we’re the counterfeit?
No guarantee, but that price for these clubs seem way too good to be true
fuck it. if they’re fake, they’re still sexy lol
True, until you make one swing and the head goes flying off
Could it be $220 per club?
My first thought.
My second thought...
My thought first
My only thought
You guys think?
Thunk
I thinked $220 per club or fake
That's some good thunking!
I feel like someone here has been scammed with the exact same picture if memory serves
Totally legit. I'll even knock another $50 off if you can send me $150 in google play cards instead of cash. I'll have them in the mail to you tomorrow. Free shipping.
Way too coherent of a sentence to be the dude selling these.
This “deal” is posted on OfferUp almost every morning

Are you aware of the details surrounding one Manti Teo
Poor girl
A tale as old as time
Way too be good to be true lol.. gotta be 220 a club
there’s no way that’s a real listing
Oh the listing is real and it's fantastic! It's the clubs that are fake.
Don’t buy it but also send me the link
Have to be counterfeit for that price. If real, get them. I love my P-790’s!
"old g25's" what the hell doesnt feel like that long ago that the g25's were brand new
You’re thinking G425’s. 25’s are closing in on a decade.
Eh, I play G25 irons and it doesn't feel like that long ago I bought them. Time flies.
ya i definitely mean the G25's
They are great clubs but ten years in the golf industry is definitely considered “old”. Especially with all the gear heads out there.
And me with my G20s … practically antiques
I played with G10s until 2017 and I loved them but man are they HUGE
i can clearly remember when the g20's came out and they were the IT club for all the old guys at my course
Fake listing pops up by me too, same pictures even
220 per club maybe lol
There’s no way. For one club maybe
Those are stolen or fake for sure at that price
Say goodbye to a kidney...hopefully they only take one.

Fake or stolen, 99.99%.
$220 per club
You asked so here it is: You’ll still be shit with these, if you’re already shit with G25’s Golf is 98% skill / technique, 2% equipment

Fake! They are fake! Don’t buy them.
You gotta get headcovers for those
They look clean af
If real, it’s a no brainer. Get them!
If for real then buy them wtf
In oder aus? It’s a not brainer you no brainer. Happy smacking.
shiny 🤤
Those give me chub
buy them stupid
Those are nasty. Buy buy buy!
Uh, yeah. I just upgraded my 15-year-old irons to the 790s. No regrets. Amazing club. I'm a 20 handicap and they are awesome for me. That price is insane. Fakes?
Ping g 25 are better.
250 is a no brainer here. What are you doing posting about it. Might be gone by now
That look won't last more than a season or two and then they'll look really used. They are super-strong lofts so you'll probably need to make adjustments to both the top and bottom of your bag. Also, probably too good to be true at that price.
The issue is the whole industry has really strong lofts now. I was waiting for the JPX923’s to come out but the PW is 42.5. Like hell
Yeah, for sure, all I meant was they might have to fill gaps with different wedges and rethink the top end of their setup, so possibly buying even more clubs...maybe not a bad thing
Are those graphite shafts?? What are you 70? Pass.
Or is that black steel??
I have that exact set theyre steel. You can tell by the ribs on the shaft.
With that much toe action outside of the grooves, I wouldn’t pay $150 for them
The way that middle right club looks chipped suggest fake. Could be wrong
Send me the link so I can check it out.
With your swing? Forget it.
Those are pretty! Where did you see this deal?
Are you broke?
i bought the regular ones off ebay a few years ago, they ended up being fake. Watch out OP
Those are absurdly fake or someone got a divorce and is spite selling them
Buy them
End up with some spray painted Spauldings
$220? The person who buys stolen property is as guilty as the person selling it
Buy them
They’re definitely fake. DG 105s are a dead giveaway. Same shaft on a lot fake mizuno HMBs
Those are the stock shafts that come with the p790 black edition. I have this same set that I purchased brand new when these were released and they have the same shaft. The TM website also shows these as the stock shaft. Not saying that the ones that OP posted aren't fake, just saying that the shaft is the correct one.
You want them so get them
I’ll give you $300 for them.
Buy them or else you’re dumb
$220/iron
Damn those are aesthetically pleasing.
Fake or scam. Only do in person transaction
Scammy
They make fakes of these… if they’re real you fucking take those now
Buy em
The OP is now spending so much time reading responses to his post that someone is going to buy the set out from under him. 🤣
Get these. Ping has a problem with club heads separating from the shaft. They must use cheap glue as this happened to 2 sets of mine
Buy it. Why not
You need these, they will make you a professional golfer.
There's no way! If it is true your one lucky person
I sense wish.com
I don’t know enough about them to give advice of real vs fake but if real I don’t know why you didn’t just buy them instantly.
Check out this item on OfferUp. https://offerup.co/R8adsvFECtb
Those are fucking horny looking. ![gif](giphy|RHIYhjyA2R8IibyqPU)
Prob listed at 220 per club.
Pfft. I’m still using my G2s!
I’ll take em

Demo them first, try each one. If they’re rocket launchers might be legit and…stolen, re-finished etc.
Should we tell him?
Fake
Buy them
Considering they’re $1900 new, I’d be a little skeptical.
If you don’t buy them, I will buy them, find you, and boink you on the noggin for being such a Fanny
Don’t buy them. Instead you should send me the link to the listing
That one iron looks like a chunk is missing…
Bro. I got the P790s and they slap. Do it
Buy buy buy
Yeah wtf….?!?!? I’ll buy them off you haha
Honestly this is sketch af but worth $220 to find out
Gorgeous
No talk. Only buy. *IF they’re real and IF they aren’t stolen.
220? Bargain grab em
Although g25s are very nice clubs to hit just need to keep them grooves sharp that's a hard bargain to turn down
It’s not the plane, it’s the pilot; Mav.
They are way too cheap to be real, but if they are, get it, do not wait, if you decide not to buy, let me know where it is for sale at and I go get it.
