Free Raffle for a Custom Case

New member
Hi all,

In case you don't me my name is John Barton and I started Instroke Cue Cases around 15 years ago. 3 years ago I sold Instroke and since then have not been making cases.

I just started a new workshop to produce only one-of-a-kinds and prototypes.

To honor all of my great customers from the Instroke years I am doing a free raffle for the honor of being the very first person besides me to get a case out of my new workshop.

In order to get in all you need to do to enter is send an email - not a PM - to jbcaseraffle@jbideas.com with your real name and your AZ Handle. If you have ever owned an Instroke case please describe it briefly and you will get two entries in the drawing. Honor system here.

The only limits to the case you will receive is your imagination and if I can't easily procure the materials. For example I can't do exotic leathers that are forbidden for me to import. But I can do some really nice leather prints.

See www.jbcases.com for details.

Thanks and hope to see a lot of you in the drawing,

John Barton
 
Nice one there John. I admire people like you who give back to the community.

Question

Can you do, or replicate, 'Brown Alligator'. I absolutely love Brown Alligator cases, it just rings my bell? (I would even consider a Dark Green Alligator case).
 
email sent sir!

I have also sent you an email for the case, sir. I appreciate your good deed by doing this to "give back" to former customers. I look forward to seeing who the winner comes out to be. Take care John, Jeff

I guess I have announced it now. :-) I will start taking orders now. If anyone places an order and wins the raffle then their case will be free.

If you want to talk to me about a case send me your phone number and I will call you to work it out.

John
 
Thank You!

John,

Thank you for this very generous offer for all us AZers that have been customers of Instroke in the past. I can tell you from personal experience that John is not only a innovative and excellent craftsman of great cases, but his customer service is second to none!

I know he'll do great in this new venture. Best of luck John.

Dave
 
Thank you!

Thank you for the kind offer to raffle off one of the new cases you will be creating. Sent entry for the contest to you and can't wait to see what you come up with, good luck to all!!!
 
count us in

Wow!!! Great deal we have had over twenty Instroke Cue Cases my personal ones and ones for sale at the pool room. Will the new cases be the same style as in construction not so much the look? One of my favorite all time cases is the Buffalo leather cases will you build something like that. Thanks
