Yes Two that I was looking at are

Why would a cue from a highly respected cue maker not sell for months on a reputable dealers website even tho the price appears reasonable. Just curious why these cues aren't snapped up. I look at them with the intent to possibly buy one but this is holding me back.

Hi I am looking for an OB1, shaft for a radial pin. Thanks.

Thank you for the reply. I was thinking of a new cloth before this happened so maybe this is a blessing in disguise

Hi I needed to use bees wax on a tight joint and knew enough to cover the table where I was working BUT I had warmed up the bees wax in the sun and when I foolishly opened the jar it unexpectedly spilled over onto the table I wiped it up immediately but of course there is now a big, dark, stain...

A couple of years ago I was playing a guy and he had a beautiful custom cue. He invited me to try it and when I picked it up it was like there was nothing there. I never felt anything like it in 60 years of playing pool. How can one buy a cue online from a reputable maker or seller and know that...

Can you post some pics? Thanks.
