Well, it is another year (my 18th) of selling used golf balls on eBay. I have found every one of these balls on my local golf course and therefore know that none of them have been submerged in water. Just take a look at my seller feedback for the last 17 years, and you can be assured there is no better value on used golf balls on eBay today. HERE ARE 51 NEAR MINT TITLEIST PRO V1X GOLF BALLS, ALL OF WHICH ARE THE MODEL THAT WAS SOLD THROUGH THE 2022 SEASON. Balls that I grade as NEAR MINT will have some defect or defects that keep them from being classified as MINT, my very best balls, but for all intents and purposes they will behave as new balls do. There may be relatively small areas where paint is missing or where there is discoloration, perhaps a scuff mark(s) that may be noticeable, but I feel is too insignificant to have any effect on ball performance. In some cases these NEAR MINT balls may not have as much of the new ball shine as my MINT balls do. Any defect, in my judgment, would be a non-factor in terms of ball performance, and in most cases no more than a small factor in terms of cosmetics.  Some of these balls will have player identification markings and/or logos on them, ESPECIALLY Pro V1 AND Pro V1x BALLS. Personally, I like player ID markings and/or logos for several reasons. They help you identify your golf ball much more easily, and in addition, many of these logos are imaginative and very cool works of art. 

Perhaps most importantly, NONE of these balls were "water balls," as I found each and every one of them on my golf course which, thankfully, has no water, but plenty of trees. This is very important in buying used golf balls, as research has shown that golf balls are very much affected by being submerged in water.  US Army research reports that golf balls absorb water that cannot be removed, and this effects a permanent change. Recent testing by Golf Digest found a golf ball submerged in water loses six yards after one week, 12 yards after three months, and 15 yards after six months. 15 yards is a LOT of distance, usually a club and a half. Virtually ALL of the sites that sell used golf balls on eBay are commercial outfits which get their used balls from dredging ponds and lakes because that is where they can collect thousands of balls in a very short amount of time. They may look pretty, but you can be virtually assured they have absorbed water. This is why it makes sense to buy used balls from a seller who does it as a hobby and not as a business.

 In short, these NEAR MINT balls play virtually the same as new balls do, provide an excellent value for the price, and may be the best deal on used golf balls on eBay today. Note that this is a picture of the actual golf balls you will receive, something the big commercial sellers do not provide. In other words, you can actually see what you will get before you buy! Shipping IS FREE to anywhere in the lower 48 states.

 It may be the case that I have additional balls of exactly the same make, model, and quality as the ones listed here. If so, I offer these additional balls at a discount, the amount of the discount depending on the number of additional balls purchased. If this is something that interests you, contact me before your purchase to find out what additional discounted balls I may have.
