I am curious if anyone out there has a really good, name brand, Piloted 5/16x14 Carbon Fiber shaft that you would let go of for cheap?

Please, no offers of any of those off brands (from China), or Customs, that nobody has ever heard of. Something well known, and known to be of high quality.

Must be in decent, straight, and playable condition. No damage, like sanding, dinged, or scratched.

$200 Max, if possible.

Paypal - Goods and Services only.

Thanks a lot for any offers.

That is an off brand.

I really want one of the leading name brand shafts.

Thanks.

Hi, so all of the different descriptions for those higher end shafts are all a bunch of BS Marketing Hype? You think they are all made the same? From the same blanks?

Why are you getting so defensive? Asking for a "name brand" shaft at 2/3 of the going used prices is kind of your downfall here. With your budget you should be willing to try a Rhino or smaller name custom carbon shaft. You may actually like it. Most of the big names do not physically produce the carbon blanks for their shafts, they come from China...the only thing they produce is marketing BS that has clearly worked on you.

Rhinos are great shafts, find a tip that you like and shoot some pool.
 
The "name brand' ones have used prices around 80% of new. So that's around $400 for a Predator. That's my rough math based on this site and facebook groups.

I agree with trying Rhino. I have one and can't complain about it.
 
What carbon fiber shafts are totally made in the USA... not from blanks made overseas, etc??
 
I am not up on carbon fiber shafts, other than Predator, Jacoby, etc.

I know several cuebuilders build some custom, but every one of them that I know uses CF blanks from overseas.

Other than Rhino, most "known" CF shafts seem to be in the $350-450 range.

I was curious if there are some CF blanks built in the USA...

I have one that might let go, it’s a version 1 Meucci Pro Carbon. Changed to kamui gold not too long ago. It was a back up for my Tascarella and JMW but I end up using expro and ignite. If you want it bro, you can have it. You know me, I’m not haggling for price.

Thanks Kenny... I am not actually looking for a CF shaft... I play with standard maple... but I have 3-4 CF shafts, already that I don't use. I was just curious if any CF blanks were built in the USA, and not overseas.

There are.
Shelby William start making them.
Astle also making them.
Barnhart is also doing it.
Ariel also starting it also.
Some other in cue maker group on Facebook also making them. They slightly more expensive than bull or rhino but they play well.
