    Return Ball System GCIII-IV Chicago Area

    Hello gents, please forgive me as this post may best be placed in the Wanted to Buy. The reason I posted here is because IMO mechanic's are going to likely know the best place to find a return rail system. I'm looking for advice in acquiring a return ball system for my bastard Brunswick...

    Tim Scruggs Sneaky Pete - Hoppe Butt

    I bought this from Tim back in 1999. The shaft is 13.25 (4.10 oz) and dead straight. $700 - Firm - would consider trade+ for Cognoscenti. I had it in Ray Schuler's shop in Palatine IL around 2000, and he said he had never seen a shaft that stiff. I am including a OB Classic shaft for free...

    The existence of a women division in some tournaments

    I recently asked that same question to a Hall of Fame canidate. This is generally true until you start getting to the top. The strength of the men's break is one of the biggest obstacles. Gives the men a tremendous advantage in staying at the table.

    JJCUE stand up cases - junk without support

    Instroke has an excellent warranty. Regardless of what price you pay for the case or how long you have owned it.. instroke has a case for the same as what I paid for this piece of crap. Joe sold it to me. These are the facts surrounding this review. I don't know anything about Sterling. Go...

    Stop Calling A Custom A Sneaky Pete

    I bought two McDermott sneaky Petes in 1979-80, for my brother and I. $70 for the both of them. The wood grain did match up perfectly. GREAT stick. Lost one in a bet several years later. The other went for $150 two years after we got it. McDermott stopped making them because shafts would bust...

    Pockets on 9' Wilhem-Saunier tables

    Well it appears you need some TLC from a good table Mechanic. It looks like a beautiful old table with character. There is a whole formula for cushion angle & pocket angle. Real King Cobra refurbished and rebuilt my rails on my GCIII - IV. It is a real science. Sounds like leto1776 has a...

    Let me help you here. It appears above you are implying that J&J is less money than Instroke. This is a link for a vinyl 3x5 under $170: http://www.seyberts.com/products/3X5...-1042-183.html Its not. Basically the same price. You might have to copy and past the link above to follow...

    Actually you are totally wrong. Instroke backs their product indefinitely. Link below has a 3x5 for under $170. BoooYAAAA! Instroke: If after 12 months you have a problem with an Instroke cue case, we still want to know about it. You may either take the case to the retailer you purchased it...

    Stefan where is the price point for buying a "good" product? If I bought a brand new car and scraped the paint. Went to an auto body shop and was told can't Mach the color. Took it to the dealer and they said , sorry go to the manufacturer. Went to the manufacturer and they said sorry we just...

    JJCUE stand up cases - junk without support

    Agreed! I would agree that the end result would appear exactly that way. A rip off. Scam. That is why I posted this review for others to read. Amazing part of this is that based on original responses I thought I was crazy and alone. I'm still crazy just not alone.;) Bottom line I don't...

    Maxx, thank you for the suggestion. I agree that I could likely find a work around solution by working with other repair shops. But then I'm continuing to support the maker and sellers of this case. I'm looking at a replacements. Likely a 2×4 Instroke. If you have a suggestion of a nice...

    Do a search on this product and you will find very little regarding quality and durability. I don't have time to buy a new case everyyear. it's of poor quality and it can not be repaired. You are right. After a year it's no bodies problem but mine. JKA you do understand what a cue case...

    Correction, I worked with Doc over at OB. I'm sure he gets his direction from the top. And I expect EVERY business to do it just like them. They are not a non-profit organization but yet they have a good product, a great reputation and they make money. Are we back to "Most reasonable...

    There is likely a boiler plate 30days but outside of that its part of building relationships with customers. The more successful the business is often an indicator of how people handle their customers... negotiate for a win/win. I expected a lot more than being ignored and threatened. See...
