Amazon has built its empire on convenience and low prices, but is it really the best place to buy disc golf discs? We’ll admit it—Amazon has changed retail forever, sometimes for the better and sometimes for the worse. As the online giant has taken over the shopping experience, it has also contributed to the decline of local stores and malls. We’ll also confess—we shop on Amazon too. But, let’s be honest, it doesn’t always feel great.
As a small business that also sells on Amazon, we know firsthand the brutal fees that come with it. Amazon charges sellers for everything—advertising, storage, fulfillment, processing, subscriptions, and more. And while their liberal return policy seems great for consumers, guess who actually pays for those “free returns”? The small businesses. Every return cuts deep into profits, making it nearly impossible for small businesses to thrive on the platform unless they have enormous margins (which is not disc golf).
So, when it comes to disc golf, is Amazon really the best place to find cheap discs?
Nope. Not even close.
At least not compared to Discount Disc Golf.
We ran the numbers, comparing the prices of one disc from 23 different brands on DiscountDiscGolf.com versus Amazon. The results? Shopping directly with DDG saves you an average of 18.4%!
Price Comparison: Discount Disc Golf vs. Amazon
DDG Wins Almost Every Time
From our selection, Discount Disc Golf beat Amazon on price nearly every time. The only exceptions? MVP and Axiom discs, which have strict Minimum Advertised Pricing (MAP), and the Big Z Comet, which Amazon heavily discounted due to overstock liquidation. That’s right—Amazon’s one victory was because Discraft wanted to dump extra inventory rather than pay storage fees.
Even More Savings with Bulk Deals & Discounts
These are just our everyday low prices. When you add in bulk deals, discount codes, and special sales, your savings skyrocket. Whether you’re stocking up or just grabbing a single disc, you’ll almost always pay less by shopping with Discount Disc Golf.
So, why overpay on Amazon when you can get cheaper prices and support a small business?
Buy direct. Save money. Cheap Discs Fly Further.
