I was just about to bid on this because i thought it was a good buy,
I had a close look at the pictures and i think it could be fake
I'm not sure why i think that but check it out

There was talk of this one on THECAMERONCOLLECTOR.COM i think the consensus from those in the know was FAKE!

Fake - nowhere was it stamped 1/500 which is normal for all 1/500. Where were the removable Studio select weights? can't believe someone pai almost $300 for it!!

Yeah, and like a Ping Darby is a quality item. Safe to say it will never be copied, except by maybe Powerbuilt.

grab head only then, i doubt a big guy like yourself will settle into a 65g hy shaft.
Yossarian

Yeah the shaft is poop. Might go turn some tricks tonight for the cash.

Have seen some pro black heads for sale out of China on ebay. Looked dodgy & were BIN for $22 or so.
Speaking of which, thoughts on these?

i've got 2 pro blacks (18* and 23*) and they look fairly similar to the ones in the above listings - although the finish on the sole looks strange but could be the flash/camera. Got one from an ex victorian tour pro and the other from an ozgolfer recently.
mine dont have serial #'s either.
edit: hang on, didnt I buy the 23* from you?

That's the one Puji!
To my eye, something seems a bit odd about them, but not sure if i'm being paranoid. Things that throws me off are the sole finish as you say & the A in Idea on the 26, shape doesn't seem right compared to the real thing.

yeah, just had a nother look and it just doesnt seem right. enough doubt there to steer clear.

^^ a real one - see how the bottom looks different. the ebay listing seems to have bubbled areas around the letters. My ones and the one pictured have a completely flat/smooth bottom.

Well there you go, the guys at Adams must be pumped. It's almost a compliment :lol:

I think the WA Adams love had a lot to do with it. :)
