Benders

I have done well with Benders. The economy of course and the fact he gets cues out the door play a part in the resale.
I've owned a few Benders, some upper end and some more basic but they all played very well in my opinion. Very consistant from cue to cue...
IMO....not really what most would consider an "investment cue" but at the same time you won't lose your ass on a resale, assuming resale condition is not too far from original. Keep in mind, the secondary market is not what it use to be for ANY maker really. Hope this helps. GL!

I have one I would be very interested in getting ride of its a bicote forearm with ebony high points and birds eye low points with recut highs around the ebony, it has a (what i believe to be) Lizzard skin wrap and below the rap is all ebony. Its in pretty good shape, I have an original shaft and an 0b2 that fits it as well. should i sell the ob seperate from it or with it, and whats something like this seriously worth.
They play great but the crazy threads made scared when i screwed the shaft on. the thread count seems high for a wood to wood thing. i thought i might cross thread the cue when i put it together
Here are some pics that i had my buddy take with his phone, I dont have the cue with me right now, the cue is with my parents while i'm away at college. The cue is bicote with 5 high points in Ebony, and I believe those are Birdseye vinears, then it has 5 low Birdseye points and it has what I believe is stained lizard skin but to me it feels like leather, it has the texture of lizard skin though. not sure the rings are Mikes standard rings and the cue comes with one original shaft and an OB2 if desired, I'd appreciate it if you made me an offer. I havent really set an asking price.
