I have been having a lot of trouble uploading the video to youtube, but its there now. The video is bouncing all over because I literally had the camera tied around my neck. I didn't edit it because you should see the whole thing in it's entirety.
Please take a look. (No jokes about how dull my knife is either....hahaha) Please also notice how the pics Trent showed of the cue wrapped up around the collar with newspaper are nothing like what comes out of the box. There was no shafts in the box. Also notice the duct tape on one end and the instructions on there telling me to open from that end.....well now that fits with his first response doesnt it? That I opened it and then retaped it shut ??? Boy he sure was quick to offer that wasn't he?
I will also be showing another video of all the newspaper he put in the box, theres over a pound of newspapers (all his local newspapers by the way, so theres no way I could've had any of those) in the box. Theres no possible way the shafts were in the box before he shipped, according to the weight of the butt, shipping box and his newspapers. Those weights added up are very close to the weight on Trent's receipt....
