What a used driver actually costs in the UK
The middle of the market, the spread either side of it, and why the cheapest listing is usually a different question.
"How much is a used driver" has a real answer and a useless one. The useless answer is the cheapest listing on any given day, which is a fact about one seller. The real answer is where the middle of the market sits, and how wide the band around it is.
- Cheapest£63.00
- Middle half£179.99 to £287.99
- Typical£237.38
- Dearest£547.18
The middle half is the number worth carrying around. It says that a driver offered at £179.99 is at the cheap edge of normal rather than a mistake, and that anything under that is either an old model, a damaged one, or not the club the title claims.
Where the rest of the bag sits
Why two sellers disagree by this much
The same club, listed at the same time, in the same condition bracket, routinely varies more than people expect. Right now the widest gap we can see on a single model is the Titleist T150: £859.00 at the cheapest and £1750.00 at the dearest, across 8 live listings from 3 different sellers.
That gap is not usually anybody behaving badly. Condition grading is subjective, shafts differ, and a shop pricing off an RRP lands somewhere completely different from a private seller pricing off what they saw last week. It does mean that checking three listings before buying is worth real money, which is the entire reason this site exists.
Every driver we track has its own typical price and spread, and drivers under £250.00 is the same data cut by budget.
