I found this on Craiglist.

I bought two new @199 each.  It looks good.  If its still covered by manufacture warranty, it might be worth it, depending on shipping costs.  If not, the saving wouldn't be worth it to me.

If it's a local pick up then it is a good price

[TKD24]

That's a great price. I'd be all over that if I were in the area.

I got an email the other day for $159, brand new.  Dont remember where it was though, but thats what I bought mine for as well, over a year ago.

Still, its a good deal if its in good shape and fully functional.  Id offer him $100 and work it from there.

The tires look fairly worn from use, won't affect performance but just an observation. Make sure the brake is functional, the folding locks work, and that it folds with ease. If the alignment is off, that can be adjusted via a couple screws by the front axel so that's not a worry. I concur with offering $100 and see what he says. Definitely a good pickup if it's your first cart. I've had mine for half a year and love it. Lowest you'll find brand new from retail is around $150 when certain colors go on sale.

He agreed to $100. I have a bag boy express that I need to sell.  Is there a huge difference between the two?

[DavePelz4]

Buy a new one from Discount Dan's.  I have a 2.0 that I bought 4-5 years ago for $150 and they shipped it for free.  Top notch service there.

wait for sports authority coupon and have GS or Dicks match the coupon.

i got mine from Modells for $120, and the 2nd one when GSmith had the 50% off mystery coupon and paid $100+tax for the 2nd one.

clicgear carts may look good but its very heavy to push around.  i like the old speed carts from sun mountain.

[dagoose383]

Has anyone heard of any current sales on the 3.0's? I want to pick up a blue one in the next week or so

Both the Sun Mountain SV1 and Clicgear are 18 pounds. I'm in the market for a cart too, but I keep ending up back at the Clicgear.

Have never thought that.  We play a few hilly courses and have a few steep inclines.  The cart just rolls easily to me.

I have never thought this at all, something may be wrong with yours. My nine year old son will push mine around on the course with ease.

I just donated "2" Bag Boy push carts (120 & 180 express).  "Yes", I experience a difference and my wife does as well.  C3.0 rolls easier and stays on track.  Storage box is larger, net is nice and the side seat is great, bottle attachment and cleat cleaner are better; the steering handle and cigar holder (both ingenious), it still rolls easier and takes up less space in the trunk.

If the front wheel gets out of alignment it can feel heavier to push.

The fold up size is great for just keeping it in the vehicle.  We can get my Clicgear and my wife's 4 wheel Sun Mountain and stacked clubs in the back of our Rav 4 and still pull over the top cover for security after we have finished our round and stop for lunch, groceries etc. One of the major reasons we chose the vehicle.

I saw the 3.5's at GolfTown yesterday and the storage net is definitely bigger.

push an old sun mountain with skinny tires vs clicgear.  you will feel tremendous difference.
