Any ideas on when this cue was made roughly and what are the values looking like on these Paradise cues?

Thanks Shane

That is a good looking, original Paradise. I sold one very similar quite a few years ago. I can't see the foil, as long as its an Original by Frank Paradise foil. That is what a collector should look for. Values are very tough, what I think it should be worth and sell for might not be the market because the people that really appreciate these, can't use them anymore because they might not be on the Earthly plane. Older cues are starting to lose their appeal to newer collectors, I use that term loosely. But if you get a carbon fiber shaft on that cue, I am sure you'll be ok... LOL.

I asked myself if there are more left hand players, then in the overall population, but maybe it is just biased, as I am playing left handed and tend to recognize all other left handers...

Ronnie O'Sullivan has proclaimed a left handed 147 as possible. He has yet to execute it publicly. 🤷‍♂️ My morning fitness pits left vs right.
The Left is creative and flowing. The Right is angular, points, lines and planes.
When in competition my choice of hand is dictated by the situation. When My opponent at the handshake was incredulous that I cut that 8 ball oh so thin and precision with my Left hand (second hand(). I had to look down to the cue in that hand to confirm, as I had no conscious recall of the switching of hands. It just came as natural as a stroll in the park. Shrug 🤷‍♂️

I can't find a spot to lease in my area right now. So I'm going to put this on the shelf for awhile, probably until early '27. We'll see where we're at.

I'm curious, have you checked your local banks for CD interest rates and terms?
With a LB of cash you should be able to find something that includes High Rate Returns.

Dynaspheres and WNT Launch Major Partnership as the New Balls of the Tour

Well what do you know, WNT has once again accepted a large sum of money and free product to name a brand of balls “the official” title of the WNT, thereby allowing the best players in the world to play with less than the best equipment, just as they did with Rasson tables.

Please. The "best" players in the world routinely play with "less than the best equipment" themselves - cues, tips. chalk, g;oves, etc. How come? They need the money! It's not a lucrative sport, so sponsors are hard to come by.

Somehow top players still manage to play at 800-plus Fargo levels

Promotors also need to make money. Predator makes players play on Predator tables, with Predator=-branded balls, Predator-branded cloth, with Predator racks.

All this complaining is ridiculous, especially since Dynasphere balls are topnotch. Complain about the colors, but the balls themselves are not a proble.

Players are still shooting as well as ever, whether it's on Diamond, Rasson or Predator tables. Wether it's on Simonis or Aramith cloth. Whether it's with Dynasphere, Aramith or Predator-branded balls.
