Any experience with Asian break cues?

Hi,

what's your experience with buying carbon break cues from Asia. I'm not talking about no name brands or the poorly copied expensive brands. We now have some very established low price brands like Wolf, OKHealing, Konllen or even Rhino from the Philippines who produce a range of different carbon fiber cues way less expensive than American brands. Have you bought and used a break cue of one of them? Can you give some feedback about playability and longevity?

Thanks

Scammers on this site

By and large I’ve had good dealings both ways. As the seller I’m of fan of using f&f on pp. it doesn’t save that much money and you lose the protection of pp. I’ve been scammed a few times ( non pool related) filed cases with pp and received a refund. That protection doesnt happen with f&f
Did you mean you are a friend of goods and services for pay pal?
As a buyer i will only pay g&s and if the buyer insists on friends and family i pass

Up and coming cue makers to invest in???

For people just starting out collecting... what cue makers/brands would you suggest investing in now for UNDER $800 that will only GO UP in value? If people thought of collecting as an investment, or a collection to leave their children/grandchildren 30 years from now... which makers would you suggest will only increase in value?

I think this would be a very interesting conversation. Some cue makers are very talented but only start making cues in their older years and don't have time to build a name for themselves. Other cue makers that are younger may end up "selling out" and mass producing and dilute the market. (or maybe don't win awards that seem to help value).

What makers (under $800) would you predict would be valuable in 20 years? I'm dying to hear the thoughts from so many different experts on here.

PLEASE let's leave out of the discussion "Just buy what hits the way you like". Obviously, those are the ones we play with. I'm talking about INVESTMENT quality that can currently be bought at very reasonable prices. Things you stick in the closet because you feel it's going to be valuable.

Identify this cue with "W" logo?

I've made it my mission to find a cue that you value but don't have at a cheap price! LOL It would be a source of pride with me if I could actually do it considering all of your vast resources! 👍👍👍
If I do find one of these "Budweiser McDermott" cues at a really good price... I'll offer to you for cost if you like it. You've done so much for this group, everyone should be showering DEALS on you to add to your collection/estate/database/knowledge!!!

PLEASE!!!!... commit your knowledge/database and leave for everyone in your Will! I know... you're going to live FOREVER! (but just in case you get hit by a buss). That would be too big us loss for us to take. Kind of like when the last speaker of a "native language" dies.
