Costco is known for its cost-conscious stock of bulk items.

Kirkland Signature golf balls may seem like one of the more unusual items for the retailer to stock, but they were a hit with golfers because they sold for just $29.99 for 24 balls.

Now, they're all gone -- seemingly for good.

According to MyGolfSpy, Costco has indefinitely suspended production of the Kirkland Signature balls due to supply chain issues. The retailer had purchased overruns of a European ball made by a South Korean manufacturer.

At only $15 a dozen, the balls were instantly ranked as the cheapest on the market when they were released in November. The key for golfers was that the balls had the quality (distance and rate of spin, for instance) of other balls listed for twice as much.

Demand for the balls was so high that Costco would run out of stock for weeks at a time, while causing the secondary-market prices to sour. The Wall Street Journal reports that even at double their retail price online, the Kirkland Signature balls were still a good deal.

After being largely out of stock for two months with quick spurts of availability, Costco's initial supply of overrun balls has officially sold out. MyGolfSpy thinks it may be the final hole for Kirkland Signature ball sets.

If you're still interested in acquiring the balls, the internet can help you. Sets of two dozen are currently retailing on eBay for $150.
