The Customer Service you described is bad for sure
But can’t you still use the break rack even with that little piece chipped off?

i tried but it wiggles loose, so i taped it up with gorilla tape but it still opens a bit but stays together. what i did do was some macgyver stuff, i took some zip ties and tied them around my aluminum frame underneath because the rasson victory 2 has an all aluminum frame, i pulled the ties short enough to take the bungee chords and hook them to the ties and keep good tension on them to where the breakrak functions as it should.

with the customer service that Dustin has given me, he shouldn't be selling anything to the pool community. products break, but with any product they dont last forever. in my case a couple months and ive used the breakrak a lot and never had this issue until i did. stuff happens but a good company would take care of their customer.

heres my setup

I think Taiwanese player YL Chang may be the most interesting story out there. He always seemed to live in the shadow of Ko Pin Yi, Ko Ping Chung and JL Chang. As one who follows Asian pool more than most of us, can you (or any other forum member that follows Asian pool closely) tell us anything more about him?

I researched Chang last year after he got to the semifinals of the Florida Open. Who the hell is this guy, I thought.

Not much public info is available on him. He’s 45 now. Briefly was ranked the No. 1 player in the world about 10 years ago by the WPA. Won the World Cup of Pool with Ko Pin Yi around the same time, you probably recall.

He disappeared from the international scene when the pandemic broke out, and only stated hitting up events again in 2024-25.

I’ve seen him play 8-10 matches since then. Jumps out to me for his very aggressive play compared to most Taiwanese and Asian players. He’s like Chua in that regard, but sometimes he’s more reckless.

Always looks confident and expects to win. Uses every inch of the cue ball and is not afraid of extreme spin and other shots. He is good at the defensive side of the ball too.

He’s a momentum player, though, and is less adept at grinding out wins than the very best players. When his game is a touch off, he’s very beatable. While making a lot of deep runs the past few years, he has not seemed capable of going the distance.

I see that you just went ahead and posted this on e bay for $10,000 or make offer- why ask us all here if you are going to do something like that?
Where did you get that $10,000 number from? You are paying e bay 13% to sell it.

Made in 2000. $3000 min.

I have one . Fancy rings leather wrap a few scratches on the butt cap but straight and has a white diamond tip. Can get specs and pics if interested. Breaks and jumps with ease. Let me know. Thanks

Pag underwear

I don’t know what’s more disturbing, Alex plastering his name on all these various items he’s selling or those standing in line to buy them and wear things like socks with another persons name on them. I would hope your reference to underwear is a joke, because if he’s selling those as well, then that’s an all time low.

First you gotta get your mind right.
Being in a good place in life comes first.
When I quit a long term job, I follow my heart. As my first quit was at Novo Ply in Anderson CA My first adult job of 5 years. 3 months later it blew up. Killed 9 men and maimed another. Working in a bomb, as particle board manufacturer dust mixed wih air can be acetylene explosive.
My coworkers of 5 years and closest friends.
Many job departure z have followed and can
Say no regrets.
Feeling good about who I am and what I am doing has Power.
Oops a nother Ramble.
Just had the last of my teeth yanked, so priority is healing. I rest my case.
Edit: And oh the on topic part is my Father's apology on the morning he gave me the news of the fire he had fought. He had pronounced me as Extreme Foolish when I quit his company as it was a huge employer in Shasta County.

No need to pay for an " appraisal" the cue market for a cue like this is not even close to being set in stone. It is a cue that has a very limited market- why?
1. it would not appeal to 99.99% of current pool players under the age of 50.
2. it is out of reach financially for the vast bulk of the cue buying public.
3. the actual market for cue buyers of this type of cue is shrinking every day, as people 65 to 90 who , by far, are those who actually would know of this famous cue maker of the past , are mostly not buying more cues to add to their collections unless it is a fire sale on the cue.

4. the Reality is - if you want ACTUALLY to sell the cue- post in the for sale section of this site, follow the selling rules, vet your potential buyers as one needs to do on the internet, and start with an asking price of $4500. Be clear in your listing that you will strongly consider best offers.

5. Then just wait to see what offers come your way- refresh the listing often here by bumping it to the top if you do not get any early acceptable offers above a floor that you decide- should be somewhere between $3,000 and $4,000 in my opinion.

6. From about 25 years of doing this, and one who believes in actually selling cues and not just listing cues, my opinion is that ANYWHERE from $3K to $ 4K - I would take the money- but that is just me- others may differ.

Master's chalk only.....make it fair for everyone.

The aluminum racks are way to noisy, I like the Diamond wooden rack the best.
