I asked the seller to explain how they weren't stolen goods. He responded stating he was a liquidator and the Facebook photo showed that the pallet was in a warehouse. He then barred me from further correspondence.

You are quite the negotiator.

Same table, new cushions and cloth.

Does "same way" mean "same stroke speed"? With soft vs. hard tips that would produce different CB speeds and therefore different amounts of swerve for many shots.

"Same way" means same result as in getting let's say very tight position on the next ball.

Different amounts of swerve is exactly what I am talking about.

I’m headed to the tire store.

You can’t see one without the other. What’s really up here?

Drop $100 on a box of them.
Keep one in your case at all times.

I'm saying I can easily see the results differences between a Revo with a phenolic jump tip & one with a Kamui Black SS hitting the exact same shot the exact same way.

Does "same way" mean "same stroke speed"? With soft vs. hard tips that would produce different CB speeds and therefore different amounts of swerve for many shots. The tip's only contribution is the speed difference.

However you see it, it's working for you, so this is just academic nitpicking.

And maybe we're saying the same thing in different ways...?

If it's close by, go look. If they are any good, you could sell them to a pool hall or bar as house cues. But I suspect they aren't built very well.

I know a fellow, William, who run a factory overseas
where they make 500,000 cues per month.

Given Pool6561's post, sellers of huge orders may price lower-quality, two-piece cues between $1 and $2 a cue.

So, the Facebook seller may cover his costs by selling them at $5/cue. One pallet seems like a lot, but in Pool6561 world, a pallet of $2 cues is probably a minimum order.

OK. Where are all the pool-cue buyers? I think the market of inexpensive cues will be or is already saturated. Maybe things are getting bad in China.

Which is what caused the argument.

What if a guy gets down on the 6 ball, about to shoot, and his pal yells out "wait, you're on the 5 ball!" In a heads up match for $50K, that's gonna cause a scene, no matter who's playing.

Firewood is a lot cheaper here.
