Didn't SVB change his tip???? How much for the panda tips? I'll take 3 mediums if its free shipping.

PS I have a Wizard M tip

Um, RED Panda tips. I don't want you thinking they're Giant Panda tips since that would be moronic.

My tip was made by a Sherpa in the Himalayas. It's made from the hide of a Red Panda which are native to the area. The Red Panda is skinned and the hide is tanned by hand for a year on Mount Everest at approximately 20,000 feet above sea level. The very best pieces are cut to 1/10 the thinness of paper and stacked to create a 300 layers tip. Each Red Panda produces only one tip so the Sherpa has to get it just right. His only companion during the process is his apprentice who will never actually participate in the production of the tip until he's acheived 20 years experience. I have 3 and will be happy to sell you one for $250,000. They last about 6 months.

Ouch!! I thought it was $2500.00 better make that 1 red panda tip, do they come in 14mm? PM sent

They start off as 20 mm and the sherpa chews it until it reaches the desired diameter. They're all custom.

I have had to change to NERF tips. The other tips hurt when I poke myself in the eye.

...and let me guess, do you have a huge wine cork that stays on the cue tip until you need it? While at the dinner table, do you also ask your host if you can "go to the bathroom," your caretaker says "why of course you can!", and you oblige him, right then and there?

Panda Pucky(TM) tips!

Voo:

"Buyer beware" when it concerns products from the zookeeper -- they don't say on the box where "from" the Panda these tips come from. If they are fibrous (plant fibers) and don't smell anything like hide, chances are the zookeeper finally found a way to "off" the cage cleaning residue "product" and make a profit...

Panda Pucky(TM) tips -- you won't find a Sherpa chewin' these!

I have read that transexual Pandas hold chalk the best.
