    is this website for real?

    Golftown sells this putter for $350 before taxes. I stumbled onto this website which is selling them for $130 US and free shipping. Too good to be true? How can we find out if this is legit? Cuz if it is legit i will be getting one of these for myself, and if other people are interested we could maybe get an additional discount with a group buy.

    Prices on this website are ridiculously low.

    I wouldn't trust it. If I ever feel suspicious about a seller, I don't buy from them. Period. The language used in some of the sections of that site (the "contact us" page, for example) is pretty poor. Read this article and see if that makes you wonder...
