Good condition (will add pics in the next day or so if there's any interest).

Just been professionally retipped with a medium Kamui tip.

I'm based in Europe but will consider posting abroad with insured service.

Looking for 80 pounds/130 dollars.

Personal friend of Krzysztof Wróbel (youtube watch?v=y7_YVq9I2-Y) who will vouch that I'm not a scammer. I don't blame anyone for being suspicious of someone with a low post count selling stuff here, but anyway I plan to stick around and start using this forum for general discussion purposes, so if there's no interest right away then I guess I'll just bump this thread in a few months.

Cheers.

It was bought from the only guy in Poland with the official license to import and sell Pechauer stuff here. His first name is Grzegorz. I won't put his surname here before asking him if it's OK, but if you call Pechauer in the USA and ask about him they'll confirm that he's real. ...I even saw his own cue custom made by Pechauer with his name on it. I'll be playing in a tournament with him on Sunday actually (so anyone in Poland please feel free to come along to Sezam in Wroclaw and join us for a beer Sunday morning. :smile:). Oh, he's the same guy who retipped it btw.
 
Ah, ok mate - I asked because I sold one last year and wondered whether it was same one - not too many Peach's in the UK.

Yeah, seems to be a bit of a rare beast over here too. I see a lot of pros on TV (well, on youtube) using them these days though, which is encouraging. It seems that if you take away the players who are sponsored by a cue manufacturer (and therefore obliged to use a cue from that company) there's a pretty good chance that they'll be using a Pechauer butt with a 314 shaft.

The reason I like playing with a Z shaft though is that I started out playing English pool (as I'm from the UK ...just living in Poland for romantic purposes :)). As such, a 13mm tip just feels too big and meat-fisted to me. The narrower Z tip is a nice compromise between a familiar feel and something suitable for American pool (which is all they have over here - haven't played on an English table for over two years now).
 
OK, just dug out the camera and took some pics:

Ah, I've gone the other way - got fed up with American pool and am now getting into English 8 ball. Never heard of a Brit going to Poland for a woman before - usually it's the other way round! Poles are the only fit women around here...

Yeah, Polish women rock. There are quite a few in the UK, but more in Poland. :grin:

American 8-ball is fun because the pockets are so huge, you get the satisfaction of run-outs quite often (when you break without tying up balls in connected positions). It's also very international, which is nice if you like travelling.

...You know, it's nice to be good at English pool in England, but it's pretty hard to find English tables anywhere else. American tables on the other hand can be found in practically every country in the world.

Anyway, all this is all very well and good, but it looks like nobody wants to buy my Predator 314 shaft. :(
