    How to make the blue book more accurate

    IMO, part of a discussion to improve is also to state that no improvement is needed or possible based on certain concepts. I'm not sure how taking out the price guide, increasing the pictures and/or publishing it more often would make the "book more accurate," but it would be a better...

    How to make the blue book more accurate

    A Suggestion ?? My suggestion is to put out a weekly, or daily, updated price guide based on thousands of daily sales - with price variation by Zip Code. We could call it Kelley Blue Book. The CD version would be paid for by dealers and the on-line version would be ad supported. My real...

    FS: Audrick Cue - Ivory and Python with 2 Shafts - Relist

    Hi, The cue didn't reach my reserve on eBay. Darn. I'm trying one more time and if it doesn't sell, I'll just leave it in the wall rack. Audrick cue from the Phillipines. I know it's not the first choice of most of you here, but if you like a Python wrap, this cue is awesome looking. I gave...

    FS: Audrick Cue - Ivory and Python with 2 Shafts

    The ferrules are not ivory. I assume they're an inexpensive material - ivory ferrules were a $35 upgrade, each. Ivory is legal around the world if it was acquired (elephant died) before a certain date. I don't know the date, nor do I have a certificate. Audrick and several others, including...

    Hi, My second Audrick I have for sale on eBay. An Audrick cue from the Phillipines. Very pretty, wrapless, with lots of ivory and 2 shafts. I know it's not the first choice of most of you here, but this cue is awesome looking. I gave a couple other Audricks away as gifts and the guys really...

    FS: Audrick Cue - Ivory and Python with 2 Shafts

    Hi, I've bought a few too many cues and I'm going to start selling off up to 5 of them or until I can't stand the pain. First up is an Audrick cue from the Phillipines. I know it's not the first choice of most of you here, but if you like a Python wrap, this cue is awesome looking. I gave a...

    Looking for a deal in the $250-$500 range

    McDermott TOC Off the subject, but your McDermott is a bit rare. I got this quote from Jayme with McDermott customer service: "We don't have any numbers on these cues, but people who worked here when we were making those estimate less than 200." I have an unused one.

    Trying to Steel another Idea

    I Have Read I'm a technology executive, so I have read quite a bit on the subject. And, the country you work in has just about the highest rate of STEALING software that others have poured their blood, sweat and tears into. I use to work at a software company that today makes millions of...

    Trying to Steel another Idea

    Seems to me that many in your country don't believe in patents. What many in your country believe is that they should be able to STEAL the sweat and hard work of others. If we in America stopped inventing, your factories would have nothing to produce because 99% of what is produced is designed...

    Production/Custom Cue Prices

    Germans seem to be into engineering and structure Seems to me that your countrymen are into the "highly engineered" concept that likes "customs" with good long reputations made with the right materials and "productions" that have proven themselves. Rising stars like Gilbert and others need...

    What is your DEFINITION of a Custom Cue?

    Custom or Production ?? I bought a 1-of-a-kind Auerbach that he made to be sold through a dealer. It was not of my design, but John made it "custom." So, it's NOT to my specs, but I would call it a custom.
