I totally agree! If you’re interested in an earlier model of irons with a similar design, do what you can to sell clubs privately first. Maybe you can compromise in order to go back to what you want. They might not have what you’re looking for so don’t sweat it! And I prefer buying in store like with Golf Town and now Golf Traders. It’s different for me if you bought from Golf Town and you know they have your specs in an earlier model – say Speedzone 5-GW irons you have now and you want to go back to the F9s. Golf Traders is more likely to carry F9s over Golf Town because they tend to carry newer models.

Matt,
This is a very good approach.
We know that « fitting » is the essential and basic approach before buying.
One of the majors problems that I am having at Golf stores in Canada, near Montreal, , is when you are trying to be fit for a club, they do not have the head with the loft you want, they do not have the shaft in the flex and length that you want, etc..l
I am not talking about special stuff but clubs that has biggest potential for sales(i.e. TSR3 16.5 fw)
The only way that I am using now is to book a fitting with a manufacturer at their visit in my golf store for a fitting day.
At least, they have all the heads and numerous shafts to do the fitting.

Previously, when I was missing patience, I was identifying a potential club, buying it, trying it and if not satisfied, reselling the club or shaft. It is costly way.
In your region, You do not have this problem with Club Champion.

Best regards,
