NEW! Kirkland Signature Four-Piece Urethane Cover - Buy Now!

Lots of WRX posters saying they got there orders cancelled.
#xmas cancelled
Lol
It was a major PITA to order this time,but late last nite got a shipping confirmation for 10 doz. balls.
Seems some of the guys at WRX are just buying the balls to flip for a major profit on fleabay.
Who in the hell is paying $40-50 for a dozen balls worth $17?
These golfballs are good...... but they're NOT that good!
KSigs became available again today.....and promptly sold out quickly yet again.
sdandrea1 I've proven many times over that over spending on Golf balls does not help my scores. I have one box coming to me just to see what the fuss is all about.
You will like it a lot, playing it in a warmer weather. Especially at $30/2 doz. you will play this golf ball until the price gone up.
I'm guessing this 4 piece Urethane covered golf ball will move up one notch to a little higher price line and introducing the 3 piece ball at this price level. Very difficult to price a 3 piece ball from the same supplier much lower than the current price line.

I heard they sold out in about 30 minutes, and the website got so hammered that their servers were having issues. This is COSTCO we're talking about, and their servers couldn't keep up with people trying to order freaking golf balls! And this is the off-season! Absolutely insane.
Damn, seeing all these sales on eBay makes me want to sell the 9 boxes (18 dozen) that I bought! I only intended to buy 3 boxes, but I went to the website a few different times and added 3 to my cart, then never finished checkout - and I guess it kept the stuff from before in the cart because after I finally got around to submitting the order I noticed (after I already submitted it) that I bought 9 boxes. This was back right after they first came out, before the frenzy.
I could sell the 6 boxes (12 dozen) I ordered on accident for $50/dz which would net me $600 (minus fees), and that would more than cover the $290 (w/tax) that I paid for all of them plus a nice tidy profit!
Costco has a dedicated group working the web and the logistic of the flow of goods. their headquarter is in Issaquah across the street from the warehouse. a few years ago I was told there were over 300 in that group, could be larger now.
The experience they have is not uncommon with the crashing of the web site..... just too much traffic developing bottle neck, like in real life on the roadway.
This happens to any retail chain if the portal is jammed with too many users log on and refresh and log on again repeatedly.
If you have a better solution ( less cost ) to handle the issue, you will be rewarded handsomely. And I'll come work for you.

Why not ?
You can get some extra Christmas gifts.
Even if the price line had gone up you'll probably still ahead for a long time.
A commodity trader told me one time , maybe more than 30 years ago. It's no good hanging on to it, the movement makes the market. Plus you will keep 3 box for yourself and that's probably a few season's worth.
You will not see this kind of crazy price after the Holidays, remember the "Twinkies" incident ? Those Twinkies were selling as collectors item and soon the manufacturer decided to continue the product..... hoarders lost out.

I was thinking of selling one of the 2 doz I bought that are being delivered Tuesday, and then just buying more if I want them when they are more available. Especially since Pro Vs aren't the cat's ass for my game. An extra $50 towards ho-ing? Yes please
