    Proficient Billiards Cue Repair?

    That is strange. We only use ULINE boxes 5X5 or 6X6. Bubble wrap and paper towels. Filling around the cue might be newspaper or brown paper. And most times we try to reuse the customers tube or box inside our new box for double protection if possible. I am not sure why that would have...

    Proficient Billiards Cue Repair?

    Sorry to hear about the miscommunication in the pricing. We do charge more when we are doing coat over wraps. And if this cue had a coat over wrap then that is likely where the extra pricing came into effect. All of the prices are posted on the website and on the work order form that is sent...

    Dealings with Chris Tate (Palmer Collector)

    I am disappointed...

    Shorty was right and I was wrong for not calling to verify the extra work that needed to be done. I was busy and did not take the time to call him to ok the work before it was perfomed. I did call Shorty and appologize and we are alright now.

    Thanks Duane... again I do apologize for the less than standard work and the fact that you were involved in this.

    who does the best finish/repair

    Duane, That cue was here twice for repairs and took us about 6 months to collect the bill on. The first time on 12.30.03 for finish work and a joint change. The second time on 2.25.04 for a problem with the joint. In that time the cue was of course played with and also was damaged with some...

    Yep... we are a little busy right now, but working through all of the jobs. This cue was received the end of the week of the 6th and started on Monday May 9th and was scheduled to go out on Thursday the 19th, but the shaft finish didn't polish up to our expectations. And we needed another day...

    website stats I also agree that Alexa stats are not accurate. I clicked on a comparison vs. proficientbilliards and it shows a screenshot from our website from 2 years ago. When we do spyware checks on our machines alexa comes up as one and is removed. If you wonder if you have spyware...
