Sometimes I browse around on marketplace and found someone selling the brand new ProV1 Left Dot golf balls for $85 a box!! These balls are $55 online and are on a limited run and this person decided to buy a bunch and then charge crazy prices online.
I get that people want to make money and can make money however they want and some people will probably pay it but to me it’s pretty shady to try and rip off the fellow golf community. Good luck I guess… 🤷🏻♂️

I hope no one buys any and he has to eat the cost. Fuck people that do that shit
Last years boxes were selling for nearly double that. Titleist curbed the resale market with their secondary launch a some retailers stocking these. I don’t know anyone that actually ends up using these, it’s like a trophy for guys with fun money… I have 2 dozen I’ll probably end up giving as gifts
People don’t have to buy from him. Not ripping anyone off if the buyer is willing to pay for something at a particular price.
There were eBay listings for several hundred a few years ago.
Up until last year, I’m not sure I ever saw a limited run except for the original “we’re selling cpo balls to normies” from several years ago.
I was able to get two dozen through my club last week.
They seem to go miles off the tee and normal distance with irons.
I have a few dozen sitting in my office. Unless you swing it fast and spin it high this ball is absolute garbage.
I got two boxes from titleist. I’ll probably play a box/ gift a sleeve or two just to see what they are like. I’m a little worried I’ll fall in love with a ball I can’t buy tho. The other box I might sell or play depending on how I’m feeling.
Hey OP
Get a buddy in Canada … one of our Big Box Golf retailers …. GolfTown.

Lots of inventory here …
What place still has them for $55? They were a limited run to dump inventory and sold out the same day.
My course has at least 15 dozen sitting on the shelf. I tried them and went back to regular proV1.
I have some. $80.
I saw someone selling two dozen on my marketplace for 400 bucks, 85 bucks a dozen is a bargain, lol
Just take solace in the fact that the people who do this have to spend their time and energy dealing with people on FB Marketplace lol
These are great balls and they work for me but don’t buy them for 85$ they are around… I have the same issue with Bettinardi, pisses me off they sell them for so much more then what the maker has them for
Virtually nobody will actually notice a difference between left dot and the regular ProV anyways
lol as if these balls are better than any others. 🤦🏼♂️
I got roasted in another thread last week for saying I was looking forward to playing these after somebody said I should resell my two dozen. 🙄
I got my 2 dozen from Titleist as soon as I got the email. I 100% plan on playing them. Otherwise you can pry them out of my cold dead hands!
Left handed golfers always getting scammed
I just seen an add om my local they were $25 a sleeve
What does left dot even mean?
Left dash?
grow up peter pan
ask him to meet you somewhere inconvenient and no show
…it’s pretty shady to charge what they do in the first place
Some 30hcp player with a thirst for recognition will buy them for that price.
I agree with anyone that says I hope he doesn’t sell any of them and has to eat them. Also I would like to add I hope if he has to play with them they loses about half a dozen every round. What a POS! People like that don’t even deserve to be involved with anything to do with golf. What happened to being known as a gentleman’s sport.
That’s called a scalper
Ah so this is where they all went…. I won’t be spending 85 a box though.. my buddy was lucky enough to pic up two boxes… negligible difference he felt.. it would be nice to see for myself, but not for 85 a box haha.
I also saw this post and didn’t know there was some run on this style. I’ll lowball and waste some of their time.
Didnt know you could scalp with golf balls lmao
Message him and call him a low life
