I described the shipping perfectly adequately if you take the time to read my response.

Nice to see there’s as much “diversity” in the online pool community as there is in my local league. :grin: Still waiting to hear from Barry about possibly fixing this cue and the cost involved so I can relay that back to the seller. As was posted here several times, the wise thing to...

Appreciate the info. Hard for me to let it go because I do really love the look and play of this cue but that’s most likely what’ll have to happen. Before I do that though I will get back in touch with the builder as he was quite interested in finding out where precisely it came from and how it...

Sir, I’m not sure how or why I have offended you. I came here to solicit thoughts and guidance for a situation I’ve never been in before, with my first ever higher end cue. I don’t want to whine or snivel. I simply wanted opinions of those who know more than I on what they believe I should do...

I never once tried to blame it on or insinuate bad workmanship. I’m very confident that is not the case at all. The Issues were likely caused by improper care under a previous owner, or possibly even in shipping, although it was only in transit for around 40 hours. The shaft and the butt were...

Sh*t! I didn’t even notice that on my phone! If you roll it together the tip stays planted but it lifts ever so slightly at the joint. I guess it makes it less noticeable? I’m not home at the moment but when I get done work I can try rolling it with the collar on the rail. I don’t imagine that...

Hi Dave, I certainly didn’t want to or mean to throw anyone under the bus, that’s why I took the time to block names in the picture I posted. I hope I haven’t offended anyone as that’s far from my intention. To be honest, this is really my first custom cue. I didn’t really know what to...

I’m not going to sell him out yet. I’m keeping the faith that it was an honest mistake, or maybe even it warped in shipping or something. Who knows. I absolutely was not a fan of how it was shipped, but I don’t really think that lead to any issues either.

It’s not “new” per-say. I didn’t buy it from the builder. It had been chalked and played with before I got it.

It’s not like I didn’t ask either.... It also has some small imperfections, little finish lift, but that doesn’t brother me. I’m was just hoping I had finally found “the one” after extensive searching. Super bummed out that it’s not as I expected.

Hey everyone. I just bought a recently produced (2019) custom cue, but I bought it second hand through a FB group from a gentleman that apparently deals cues. I received it today and the butt is warped. Not extremely, but it’s there. The shaft rolls perfectly straight and the cue appears to...

Don’t mean to bring back a zombie thread, but I was perusing EBay and found another Mohawk. I’ve had one for a few years that my dad got from my grandfather. Interesting to see the company was based in NJ, not too far away. It’s got a good hit surprisingly, and I like the overall look/feel...

This is exactly why I said what I did in my previous post :( Sorry it ended up the way it did, but at least he's happy... For now.

Sorry to bring back a long dead zombie thread, but here goes: A few months ago at the billiards expo in valley forge, I came across a nothing-less-than gorgeous spalted maple cue from McDermott. It appeared to be a once piece spalted maple butt with a white wrap and it just looked amazing...

My .02c: I buy and sell quite a bit, mostly vintage stereo equipment and speakers which is most definitely a far cry from pool cues. Most commonly I sell on CL, but I digress. Whenever I make a sale I always try and be as throuogh as humanly possible with the customer in showing and...

Hi everyone, been lurking for a while and just decided to start posting. I just started playing last fall in my local bar to bar "league" and I've been having a ton of fun despite getting my ass kicked regularly. I just last week picked up a table for my basement and I'm hoping with the added...
