selling a ob-1 shaft. it fits a 3/8/10 joint. it has black fibre trim. it lists for $182, i will sell it for $145 including shipping! e-mail me at ilysfrie@aol.com thank you. p.s. the shaft is in perfect condition.
 
Funny, I see more and more of these for sale everyday now.

I don't even wanna test hit one anymore.

If that many people wanna sell them they can't be worth a shit.

Must be the "New car feeling" has worn off.....

I've gotta disagree with your assumptions. A different way of looking at it is that it's just a function of more people buying recently than were in the past. If the same percentage of people realize the shaft is not for them and more people are buying it it's going to look like it's losing it's appeal and people don't like it as much as they used to. These recent sales could just be a function of more people buying it.

Another thing to consider. From my understanding these started out kinda regionally. People who live near where these shafts are produced were able to try them out, find out they liked them and then buy. Now that there's been more exposure people are getting curious to try it out and buying it before they've ever hit with it. Of course, if this is happening a higher percentage of people who buy it are not going to like it and combined with it selling in higher volume and word of mouth being spread on this board you're going to see more sales.

I think you're reading too much into the recent sales. I have no vested interest in protecting this product, I've never even hit with one, but I don't think you should be jumping into his sale thread and trashing it the way you did.

No doubt - the I shafts play well.

I just started using a new Tiger X shaft - their newest generation.

Supposedly they have done a lot of improve them in the last year. I had tried one about 1 1/2 ago and was not impressed.

However-I am VERY IMPRESSED and pleased with the way it plays. I was also able to get one that is a full 13mm.
