Nearby seller on Facebook selling a pallet of new cues. Selling by the box of 20 cues for $100. I estimate there are six boxes per layer and five layers to make 600 cues. Comments?

i've done this once. made decent profit, but not worth the time (for me). expect a lot of them to be warped too
You've done this before? I thought this was very odd: 600 cues that would sell for $5 each, 20-cues-per-box, and sold on Facebook?

The warpness makes sense. But would that apply to a pallet-worth of cue sticks? The $5/cue sounds too good to be true.

it was 3$/cue in my case, bought direct from china, iirc 200 cues.

looks like a warehouse that, and they've for certain been handled outside at some point/period. expect warping
 
If it's close by, go look. If they are any good, you could sell them to a pool hall or bar as house cues. But I suspect they aren't built very well.
 
I’d by a box for $100
If they have Uniloc quick release I’d by 2 boxes.

ibuycues replied to a thread you are watching at AzBilliards Forums.
I know a fellow, William, who run a factory overseas
where they make 500,000 cues per month.

I asked the seller to explain how they weren't stolen goods. He responded stating he was a liquidator and the Facebook photo showed that the pallet was in a warehouse. He then barred me from further correspondence.

Given Pool6561's post, sellers of huge orders may price lower-quality, two-piece cues between $1 and $2 a cue.

So, the Facebook seller may cover his costs by selling them at $5/cue. One pallet seems like a lot, but in Pool6561 world, a pallet of $2 cues is probably a minimum order.

OK. Where are all the pool-cue buyers? I think the market of inexpensive cues will be or is already saturated. Maybe things are getting bad in China.
