I am going to list this R9 for sale that I recently picked up. I had plans to have the butt refinished, a new wrap installed and ivory ferrule installed to round out the look of this awesome and scarce cue.
Sometimes in life, we have to make a sacrifice for the things that are more important than a cue or the time it takes to save up money, watch AZB or Ebay for the right cue, and purchase that cue. It is such a time for my family.
11 years ago, my wife and I decided to adopt a dog from the Humaine Society of Shelbyville, Ky. We settled on Valor. He is a mutt, not worth shooting, snores, farts, typicaly thinks he is a 52 lbs lap dog that wouldn't harm a flea. He loves kids and will do his best to show off how rotten he has become.
Despite his disposition and manerisms, he has been like a second kid to me. He has been there with me through thick and thin and was a great confort when I lost my dad.
Valor has been sick the last two weeks. We thought he ate something that did not agree with him. We took him to the vet this past week and were shocked to find out that he has cancer. The cancer is inoperable and the vet's best guess is 3wks to 3mos. About the only thing we can do for him is steriods to keep him eating food for as long as he can.
As you would imagine, vets are expensive. I have no idea what it is going to cost to do the humaine thing and the additional medications he is going to need. I do know I will do everything I can to make his limited time he has left with us as comfortable as I reasonably can.
Here is the cue offered:
Schon R9
Butt 15.2 oz
shaft 1-4.2 oz 12.5mm
Butt rolls straight on my Diamond/ shafts have a tiny bit of taper roll. Ferrule has been shortened to around 3/4". The butt has a few dings, forearm is nice.
I would like to get 750.00 for obvious reasons. Trades + mostly money considered. Please PM with questions or offers. One shaft was sold seperately and the cue only has one shaft now.

I can only say that it's tough to see them go through any pain. It's like you said, you see them as your own child. I pray you and your family will get through such a sad time. Good luck with your sale my friend. I wish you all the best
