Since we have the bad arrogant cue maker thread I thought I would start the other side of the coin by posting a few of my interactions.
Ron Haley - Super nice guy to talk to and was my first custom cue I ever ordered directly. I don't think I ever spent less than an hour on the phone cause we would just get talking. He always took the time to explain the process and kept me involved in the design process. Have several more on order with him.
Tim Scruggs- Had a refinish done by him. Very plesant on the phone and delivered the cue on time when promised for a little less than quoted.
Andy Gilbert - Just a great all around guy and his wife is very knowledgable when it come to cues as well . She helped me lay out a sweet design that Andy is building as we speak.
Murray Tucker- A wealth of information and hooked me up with some great yellow ferruls. Now if he ever gets around to building me a cue ....
John Showman - Ordered a cue from John and he was great to talk to on the phone very pleasent. Sends me a Christmas card every year.
Joel Hercek - Would give Ron Haley a run for his money in the nicest cuemaker I ever talked too contest. Very willing to talk and share his knowledge of cues and cue building and design. Responds to his e-mail every day from what I can tell.
Other nice makers that I have spoken with and was treated very well by are Steve Klein, Keith Josey, Paul Dayton, James White, Jerry Olivier, Travis Nicklich, Mike Webb.
Let's here about some good experiances you A-Z er's have had.
