I chanced upon www.championcues.com and saw their shop pics exactly as what you can find in Ted Harris' website. Are these one and the same? Does Ted know about this or was it done with his consent.
Just wondering :confused:

Those are the same pictures. I doubt if Ted knows about it, but I'm sure he will, real soon. I checked their Catalogue List, I think that I can now positively ID "Best Looking Cue I've Ever Seen" ;)

I was in shock of them having the "original" snake inlay cue. If thats true, I don't believe it to be, that means there is a very famous "tribute" of that cue by someone famous.. oh thats right, he gets a pass. Sorry... I guess the cue police can be "bribed".

The picture of "their factory" is clip art. I hope they didn't steal the cue designs off anybody. Those are some nasty looking broom handles.

To add insult, they even copied Ted's captions/descriptions of each picture.

They also riped off Dominiaks pyramid logo.
 
I looked at their site well over a year ago and seemed like the snake was on it back then even.

Yup... I tried to post both, but cannot copy the ripped off one..

Now this is funny... Check out this page:
http://www.championcues.com/index_files/Page1099.htm

See the first paragraph:

We carry a wide variety of Champion Custom Cues. Our Pro-Shop staff is highly trained to help you pick the right cue for you. Our main concern is Customer Satisfaction. With competitive pricing and availability, We feature 100’s of in stock cues to choose from. Why shop anywhere else? Authorized Dealers for: Champion Cues.

What are the two logos in the first picture that really jump out at you? Why would a "Cue manufacturer" carry competing lines?

:D

Gravy....those cues were hand made. Roscoe, which one is your fav?
 
when they start harassing you to close the deal on the 20 cues per month, you need to tell them that you can't leave the country for political reasons, but can meet them on the nude beach in sandy hook, nj to sign the contract.
 
When they start talking about payment and shipment, tell them you would like to Escrow thru a known billiard company. Perhaps Ted Harris would be an appropriate "company" to perform the Escrow duties. haha!
What does Ted think about this anyway? I'm sure he's busy right now, but this is a little rediculous!
