Built for trust
A marketplace designed around safer local golf trades.
Buyers and sellers need clear condition details, local context, and sensible verification before money changes hands.
Know how
How the Fairway Finds process works.
The platform is built so buyers, sellers, and Fairway Finds all have a clear record of the item, seller details, paid visibility, and approval status.
-
01
Create and verify your profile
Users sign up, confirm their email, add contact and address details, then wait for admin approval before buying or selling.
-
02
List golf gear for review
Sellers upload photos, item details, condition, price, and location. Fairway Finds reviews listings before they go live.
-
03
Buyer contacts the seller directly
Fairway Finds connects both parties. Payments and deliveries are arranged directly between buyer and seller.
-
04
Verify before paying
Buyers should verify the seller and item before paying. Fairway Finds does not handle payment or delivery for direct sales.
Why Fairway Finds
Built for South African golfers buying and selling with more confidence.
Reviewed listings
Listings are checked before going live so poor photos, unclear items, and suspicious posts can be stopped early.
Fair local pricing
Price recommendations and Rand-based listings help sellers price realistically and buyers compare options.
Direct deal warning
Every listing reminds buyers that payments and deliveries are arranged directly between parties.
Optional paid visibility
Standard listings are free. Sellers can choose featured listings, sponsored listings, or dealer subscriptions for more reach.
Marketplace support
Fairway Finds can review profiles and listings, but buyers and sellers remain responsible for direct transactions.
Made for South Africa
The marketplace is focused on local golfers, local currency, local listings, and local support.
Human admin help
Buyers and sellers can contact Fairway Finds for profile approval, listing help, and safety questions.
Safety tips
Never pay before verifying the seller and the item.
Fairway Finds connects buyers and sellers, but payments and deliveries are arranged directly between the parties.
Ask for proof
Request extra photos, serial numbers where available, and a short video if the item is expensive.
Meet safely
Use a golf club, driving range, pro shop, or other public place when inspecting or collecting gear.
Check the condition
Inspect club faces, shafts, grips, bag zips, rangefinder screens, and any signs of repair before paying.
Avoid pressure
Be careful if a seller rushes you, refuses questions, avoids verification, or asks for unusual payment arrangements.
Keep records
Keep WhatsApp chats, payment proof, collection details, and courier tracking information until the deal is complete.
Report concerns
Contact Fairway Finds if a profile, listing, or seller behaviour looks suspicious.
