Get the best price for two Golfs in good condition (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

haggle

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'get the best price' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'two golfs in good condition' is the wordplay.
'two golfs' means two replacements for 'golf'.
'golf' becomes 'g' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'golf' becomes 'g' (phonetic alphabet: alpha, bravo, charlie etc.).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'good condition' becomes 'hale' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'g'+'g'='gg'
'gg' put into 'hale' is 'HAGGLE'.

'for' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
