Nearby seller on Facebook selling a pallet of new cues. Selling by the box of 20 cues for $100. I estimate there are six boxes per layer and five layers to make 600 cues. Comments?

Do liquidators get pallets of cues?
Do liquidators sell $5 cues in Facebook?
Does liquidator sell pallet on Facebook normally?
Does liquidator post in Facebook in more than just Kernersville ,NC if he gets pallet?

What does this do to new cue prices in central NC?
 
Did you research the brand to see what they normally sell for? I could see if if you have a spot at a flea market, but to sell on the net it might be more hassle than it is worth
 
i've done this once. made decent profit, but not worth the time (for me). expect a lot of them to be warped too
You've done this before? I thought this was very odd: 600 cues that would sell for $5 each, 20-cues-per-box, and sold on Facebook?

The warpness makes sense. But would that apply to a pallet-worth of cue sticks? The $5/cue sounds too good to be true.

it was 3$/cue in my case, bought direct from china, iirc 200 cues.

looks like a warehouse that, and they've for certain been handled outside at some point/period. expect warping
 
If it's close by, go look. If they are any good, you could sell them to a pool hall or bar as house cues. But I suspect they aren't built very well.
 
I’d by a box for $100
If they have Uniloc quick release I’d by 2 boxes.

ibuycues replied to a thread you are watching at AzBilliards Forums.
I know a fellow, William, who run a factory overseas
where they make 500,000 cues per month.

I asked the seller to explain how they weren't stolen goods. He responded stating he was a liquidator and the Facebook photo showed that the pallet was in a warehouse. He then barred me from further correspondence.

Given Pool6561's post, sellers of huge orders may price lower-quality, two-piece cues between $1 and $2 a cue.

So, the Facebook seller may cover his costs by selling them at $5/cue. One pallet seems like a lot, but in Pool6561 world, a pallet of $2 cues is probably a minimum order.

OK. Where are all the pool-cue buyers? I think the market of inexpensive cues will be or is already saturated. Maybe things are getting bad in China.
