    Pete Tonkin Screwed Me

    My stepmother passed from pancreatic and know what it does. My issue was it was nothing but excuses, broken promises, and on and on. Then another time he posts these cues he just built on a whim to sell. There was like 4-6 cues. They were double and triple butterfly splices. May have been more...

    Pete Tonkin Screwed Me

    He made a public post of facebook which i responded to. I did get ot to make money. I would be stupid to pass up that kind of deal. I stated i thought we were friends as we had spoken many times between him doing work on a cue for me before and this. We shared stories about our wives as well as...

    Pete Tonkin Screwed Me

    He offered me a cue on his own volition. I didnt ask him for the discount. As my wife passed away as well and a single father of 2 kids, i find ways of making extra money. This was supposed to help me. Instead, it dragged out and tied my money up for 20 months and was a fruitless venture that...

    Pete Tonkin Screwed Me

    To be truthful, he was never gonna finish the cue. He used my money as an interest free loan. Cue was supposed to be ready over a year ago. With many promises of shipping in the next week, weeks, end of the month. Then low and behold as soon as i say refund me, he finishes the cue within 2-3...

    Pete Tonkin Screwed Me

    I paid $4000 which was a big discount. Pete said this would retail for $10k. The lattice in the handle goes for $2k by itself.

    Pete Tonkin Screwed Me

    Exactly. And the friend aspect came through all our conversations that took place over the 20 months. Truth of the matter is Pete never made good, and after telling me countless times the cue was shipping in a week, he never did. And low and behold, the cue is finished, sold, shipped, and...

    Pete Tonkin Screwed Me

    It was a specialnoffer. He needed the cash at the moment and he offered a deep discount on the cue if i could pay him immediately. I was supposed to make moneynon the cue, instead he kept my money for 20 months, sold my cue to someone else so he could make more money on it. I know for a fact...

    Pre 1980 Guess the Builder

    Ringwork and the, what appears to me, implex joint. Implex was a joint material Schon used in the early S series cues. I am honestly not sure about the value of this cue. Personally, I think it would be worth more as a Schon than as a Runde. Kinda weird saying that, but there are lots of Rundes...
