Now that you mention it, I didn't get charged sales tax either, and I live in the same state they shipped it from. That could come back to bite them since they have a US footprint.

Mine is marked same way. I asked for med. and she told me that was stock tip so idk what the hell is up.
I just emailed CS to ask about it, will let you know what they say. No way to prove it at this point, though, without a durometer.
Maybe I'll buy this $30 durometer on Amazon, good reviews. No way I'm paying $400+ for a Starrett.
Edit: I bought the damn thing (Type D with the sharp probe, which is the best for tips in my bit of research), will be here tomorrow. If it doesn't show any difference between by two Crystal tips, my Kamui Clear Black S, and my milk duds, I'll return it. Those should be a good range. Measuring a phenolic and a Taom 2.0 break/jump tip should also be interesting.

I know mine i
s medium without a doubt. I've hit the soft and its way softer than the med. I asked specif. for a medium.
The clear plastic is part of the tip. If you look a the free tip it is glued to the tip.
Just like a KamuiClear, its part of the tip. Its purpose is to keep glue from soaking into the leather making tip come off.
I didn't get my free tip
Just in case you didn't look: it was in a small black ziploc bag, about 2x2". Some guys said theirs was stuck in the end of the box and they wouldn't have seen it without searching for it.I didn't get my free tip
I checked. Doesn't seem like that great of a tip anyway...
I asked that a med tip be installed. The pkg that arrived said it was the soft tip, and included free tip marked med. The tip installed seems harder than soft and is fine to me. May take a layer off. All of this really doesn't matter much to me I guess as my wife tried it, liked it and told me it was hers, and to order another for myself. Now that they have another sale I'm buying another.
COVID kisses
teh website is blocked for me...do they have a shaft for the pechauer speed joint? Thanks!
FYI, in some cases they ship it separately, that’s the way I got mine!, it actually took another week for it to arrive via USPS.I didn't get my free tip

My friend has an Action Jump / Break with two quick release joint pins (one at normal midway point at the end of the shaft and one to break down the cue into the jump config). He wants to order one of the rhino CF shafts but I didn't see a match up on the pins they are offering. Did I miss something?

Did anyone get the break cue and the playing cue? I’m curious about the handle section on the break cue. Is it as awful as the player one? It doesn’t look like it’s as pronounced. Guy at the pool hall got one and the cue felt fine but that handle section made it a no go for me.
