    oyamtr got a reaction from MarvChamp in Used Golf Balls…Thumbs up or down?   
    I have had a lot of expertence with used golf balls.  I rarely buy new balls anymore, unless there is an exceptional deal. Whether the few roadblocks are surmountable is up to you.  The 5A balls mean pristine (usually), no marks, no water balls, played less that a round, etc.  The cost of those is not far of the new cost.  It also depends on whether you insist upon tour-type balls- Pro Vs, TP 5s, etc.  Cost for those is considerably higher.  I usually buy 4A balls that will have player marks and logos, neither of which I care about.  The problem with below 5A ratings is they become subjective, so you have to be careful of the quality.  I have had greatest success with Jerry's Goll Balls on eBay.  (No, I am not Jerry, I don't know Jerry, I am not being paid by Jerry, etc.).  He normally displays the golf balls in a 3-D pyramid (like on some ranges.)  I have bever had a bad batch from him and the prices are lower than many.  What I do in shopping for them on eBay is figure the price per ball and compare the ones I like.  Look out for exorbitent shipping costs, especially when buying in bulk.  Price of shipping everything has gone up.  Usually, the good sellers on eBay will have multiple photos of the balls you are buying.  There ared good and bad sellers on eBay, like anywhere.  Give it a try.
