    Classic Cue Market Dying Off

    I hear you and understand but that sentiment just makes me so sad... These cues were built to play, it's why they exist except the new high-end peacock cues (looking at you black boar) and when we deny.them their purpose they loose what makes them special. I get so much enjoyment playing with...

    Classic Cue Market Dying Off

    There is a huge market for custom cues, just not at the inflated and unrealistic prices that most sellers think they're going to get. 20% to 30% profit is fucking nuts, and yet I constantly see people trying to get that above a reasonable/historical price daily. Case in point, I'm sorry but...

    Looking for a cue that plays like an old Falcon

    There are two Joss West merry widows in the for sale section, those would fit the bill perfectly.

    Best 7’ table other than Diamond!

    You can find a used valley on Marketplace occasionally for under 500. Then you add ridgebacks and 860 HR and your cooking and still under 1k. Hard to beat that.

As will most entry level positions that required no specific skill or manual specialized training. Hell majoring in Billiards may not be...

    When you say big pin is it a 3/8-12 or a 10?

    Wrapless pool cues

    I break with a 58" wrapless Ebony nosed BEM full splice and play with a 59.5" EE wrapped cue. I can't break with a wrapped cue and I can't play with a wrapless.

    Connoisseur of Custom Cues

    Well I had one collector ask me to drive to their house, I declined.The other collector actually spoke with Joes wife and then every attempt at communicating since has been fruitless. So... Clearly I know more you.

    Connoisseur of Custom Cues

    Nothing against the Cornerstone's and Crossroad's of the world but anyone who consigns a cue with a third party is essentially giving their cue away. Even with a signed agreement you have very little recompense if that vendor files for bankruptcy or in the case of Joe, dies. Sell or don't...
