I will just post my recent communication with GlobalGolf.com and leave it to you to decide how reputable this organization is. BTW I sent this E-mail 7 days ago and they have not seen fit to respond.
Here's my E-mail to them:
"I'm writing this E-mail to tell you how terribly disappointed I am in Global Golf and with my recent purchase ( order 2MFKF44). When I received this 5 - PW set of Titleist 718 ap1 irons I was somewhat surprised that the shafts
( Aerotech SteelFiber i80cw Golf Iron Shaft Steel) had TaylorMade grips.
I should have suspected something at that time but since I have purchased many clubs from Global Golf over the passed 15 + years, no warning bells went off.
I figured "ok, the previous owner just re-griped the clubs" -no big deal
I should have immediately wrote you for an explanation, but again trusting you, I didn't.
My Bad!
I am a 13 handicap and play 2 or 3 times a week. My best swing speed is about 88mph.
While hitting my 5 iron during my fourth round with these clubs
The shaft of the club broke right at the top of the club head. I brought the head and shaft to my local PGA store and the club repair man told me these clubs have been RESHAFTED with NON-OEM shafts! Titleist DID NOT offer these shafts as a custom upgrade on the 718 ap1 irons.
AND that the reason the shaft broke at the point it did is most likely because the shaft was over heated when it was removed from a set of TaylorMade irons!
So what you sold me was a set of Titleist IRON HEADS with USED TaylorMade SHAFTS AND GRIPS. Thanks.
I purchased a replacement shaft on EBay for $67.46 and had a friend install it into my 5 iron.
So, so far, I'm stuck for $67.46 but the real question is: HOW MANY MORE shafts are going to break? AND how much more will I have to spend to reshaft these clubs?
Here's a word of advice: IF you are going to sell NON - OEM clubs you OWE IT the perspective buyers to be HONEST about EXACTLY WHAT you are selling them.( its bad enough that, unlike every other seller on EBay, myself included, you do NOT show an actual picture of what you're selling!
I could have purchased several other sets of these clubs WITH OEM Shafts and grips for as much or less than I paid you but, like a real jerk, I went with an organization I trusted.
I say"trusted" in the past tense and that's where my good option of your company is - in the past "
All I'll say is "buyer beware".

Tip for consumers:
a more accurate description of what they were selling. posting photos so the buyer cans what they are buying.
