    how safe is e-bay?

    Thanks for turning me on to this site. I will continue to read various posts and occasionally chime in. Funny, my original post was directed to cuegirl, concerning ebay. Since I do have alot of ebay experience, buying & selling, I thought I could share some of that wisdom with her, but then a...

    how safe is e-bay?

    I say, buy a cue from whomever, whenever, and as often as you'd like.. Try to get into it, at the best price possible. One of the things I hear about the benefit of purchasing direct from a maker is 'oh but you can design your own cue, with your preferred spec, but really, most people when...

    how safe is e-bay?

    Your comments duly noted, and it just depends on how you view 'cues' and how they fit into your life. My reply was really directed to cuegirl, wherein she was concerned about buying high end cues off ebay, and as per my initial thread, you can see my views on it, but also informing her if she...

Wish I...

    how safe is e-bay?

    You are certainly correct Bill... and as I say.. 'stay smart'... having said that about ebay, the absolute best way to purchase a cue, especially of the 'high end' variety, (for me, that would be cues over 2K) is through bona fide dealers. You are sure to get 'pristine', and especially certain...

    how safe is e-bay?

    By the way, if you cant develop a sense of trust through email or verbal contact, wherein seller/buyer cant just move the check/cue at the same time, then dont do the deal... in other words, if you feel that you must work through 'escrow'... forget about it.. lifes just too short for me to ever...

    how safe is e-bay?

    ebay . Hi cuegirl. I see that you dealt with Bill G... (a class act). I have dealt with a number of individuals at az too. Also, have bought/sold/traded a number of cues through ebay. Ebay is just another outlet for buyers & sellers. For most people times can be good & then turn bad, and...

    Should I learn how to jump or just stick with kicking?

    jump vs kick Kicking is far more important than jumping. Certainly there are times when jumping is the only option. I agree that you should take some time to learn how to jump (easy to learn the correct method... more difficult to hone it, ie pocketing balls with shape)... but if you do learn...
