    I spend most of my money on my son since he's an up and coming junior player but I need to get a Scotty for myself. What is the best site to get a used Scotty that isn't marke up sky high?

    Scotty Cameron used putters hold their price. It is pretty much a sellers market. You have to make sure you are buying from a reputable seller. I have purchased used SC putters in the past but from only people I know or Titleist accounts to ensure authenticity.

    Here is an account I deal with and trust. Do not expect cheap SC prices, because I do not expect you to find them that are authentic.

    Your best bet is to find someone who has an old SC who is willing to let it go for a decent price. Check around with you golfing buddies.

    For the most part, Cameron putters hold value very well. I found some interesting pieces in different places: 2ndswing.com; the bargain used barrel of a local driving range (the putter had been 'abused' a bit but was perfectly usable), maybe even the trade in section of a PGA Superstore or Golfers Warehouse. I like to see the putters to determine condition before I make a purchase, whenever possible.

    Found my Special Select Squareback at PGA Tour Superstore. Went in to get my Newport 2 regripped and went over to the used putter rack while waiting. Saw a Scotty grip in the gaggle of putters and pulled it out. Naturally I had to give it a good home.

    There are a couple sites on Facebook that consist of very knowledgeable people. You can usually find good deals. If what your looking for is not there, send in a message asking for what you want. It is crazy how many Scotties some people hold.

    Facebook Scotty groups or FB Marketplace are good places to start. There are deals to be had, but be careful as there are a lot of scammers too. But if you're looking for a good, off the rack Scotty, like a Special Select from a few years ago, or even a Super Select, there are good options out there. 2nd Swing is also a decent place to look, they post up good pics, their prices are ok/fair, and they have a playability guarantee.

    If I were going to buy a used scotty cameron putter I would be very careful of fakes. The market is flooded with them so I would know exactly what I was looking for and then be very careful.

    IMHO

    I picked one up at my local shop at the course. I figured it would be better to support the local guys vs the big box store. Thank you all!

    2nd Swing Golf is the store I trust the most. I bough a used Scotty Del Mar for under 350. It was 9 out of 10 condition.

    2nd Swing is probably the most trusted. Be careful on eBay since there are a lot of fakes

    Which Scotty are you looking for? I switched from a Select Newport 2 to a Phantom 5.5, so the the Newport is just sitting in my office not being used.

    So I was looking for some advice along these lines. I'm wanting to buy a cheap Scotty, then send it in to the Custom Shop to be refinished. Is this a good idea?

    The refurbishment cost with additional options can actually run higher than a new Scotty customized for loft/lie/length/grip purchased through Titleist. I never see a 33" in inventory at any dealer. I've always loved the balance and feel of a Scotty, but consider them tools and don't go in for custom painting, etc. Up to you to value the cost of a refurbishment if you are hankering for a jewel.
    There's usually a good selection of gently worn Scotty's for $100-150 under current retail that a refurbishment is not needed. Stick with online dealers that also sell new product. Short of a personal deal with someone with a confirmed chain of possession, best way to avoid a counterfeit.

    Not common but does happen. A buddy of mine found a used SC in a Goodwill Industries Store and Donation Center for less than $10. I alway check their golf clubs when I am near one. You never know. If you are looking to find one on line they are not going to be cheap. Guess all depends on what you mean by cheap. They are in high demand and along with that, even used, demand a premium price. Believe it is $175 for a restoration of a SC putter. In some instances, might as well buy a new one. Finding a used one for $200 is like finding the holly grail.

    How can you tell if a Scotty putter is fake?

    I agree with the above couple of posts. I have purchased form 2nd Swing and have always been impressed with the condition of their used equipment.

    There's a local store here that has quite a few vs stores like the PGA SS. The store is part of World Wide Golf which is called Uinta here in Utah and in Texas it's called Edwin Watts. There's a location close to you in FTW.

    Go to eBay. There are so many well priced SC putters. I scour just to add to the collection or for friends who are too lazy to search for themselves. Got a a few real cheap ($225-250) for Newport 2.5s

    I got a SC Laguna 2 Classic off eBay for $175. It was in pretty sad shape. I refinished it myself and replaced the rusted shaft with a black satin finish and a new Golf Pride reverse taper grip.

    I'm too recommend 2nd swing. I've purchased multiple clubs over the years from them. The latest being my Scotty. Their pictures and description are pretty accurate. They also simultaneously list on the clubs on their Ebay store. Look through both, sometimes you'll find a better deal for the same club on one of the two sites.
