SWAP'S???

Post

Back to the top
Hi all I'm not sure if this is posted in the right place but didn't know where to put it? Basically at Stamford this weekend I swapped my door cards with a guy I found on here (cheers for that) he had a full blue interior fitted with black and grey door cards, I had a full black and grey interior with blue door cards. We swapped and everyone was happy. No money changed hands and everybody gets what they want. It was honestly the most hassle free transaction Iv ever had. I didn't have to put up with all the chumps and cretins from eBay or Gumtree etc. 2 people with the same interest getting something they needed to make their golf a littler bit cooler and not a penny changed hands!!! what's not to love. 
Iv got bits I need on a build I'm doing and Iv got some spare bits lying round in the garage that could go in replacement for those bits, I'm sure plenty of us have stuff lying about on a shelf or in a cupboard in the garage not being used and need something for their golf that someone else might have sat on a shelf doing nothing. I was thinking if anyone had anything they could put a post up with a "parts needed" and a "parts for swaps" lists. kind of like back in the day with football stickers 😂 For me the value of the part isn't the most important bit and you could always do a bundle of little bits for one big item. As long as the value is not toooooo far apart it's more about 2 golf owners getting what they need and getting rid/putting old parts to use. Iv got some bits I'll put a list up and see if anyone is interested, hopefully so 👍🏼
