I have a unique Its George Case made from Shark skin and one of the accessory zippers is broken. Before I risked taking it to a generic luggage repair shop, I wondered if anyone had suggestions of who might handle a repair job like this? I'm in Dallas so anyone in the general area would be...

I presume it is a Szamboti blank finished by Searing, S+S=$50k? I'm sure it will fetch a significant amount as a nice piece of history, but $50k seems steep. But BBs seem to be astronomical without using historical pieces to assemble, so whatever people will pay will serve as the market....heck...

Did the OP get his issue resolved? It seems like he posted in another thread that he was getting his cues, including a $50k szamboti blank, so what's the update with Searing? Doesn't seem fair to rant about it, reach a potential resolution, and then not speak to the issue again to amend some of...

Is there any update from the OP? To me it now seems like a late night ranting full of sound and fury signifying.....

Wow that's incredible, congratulations! It's nice when hard work comes together and you can enjoy it, such a rarity! Enjoy!

Coco is mocking people in his post! It's not as if he should be immune from critiques. I don't think anyone here wishes him ill will, but he shouldn't dole out criticism and then claim he's tired of it here on AZ when he's contributing to it.... #Hypocrisy

Thank Gawd! His post was drivel. I've seen his posts for years and they're always bizarre, but this last one takes the cake. Good riddance unless he takes a more reasonable and amicable tone.....there are valid opinions on both sides but not in Coco's world and there lies the problem.

Yeah I agree, but obviously plenty of cuemakers operate on their own timeline and their own business process. At this point it's worth driving to Dennis' shop and getting back whatever Dennis has that belongs to the OP. Some AZers have done this and it seems to have worked out fine with Dennis...

Are you able to drive to Dennis' shop and get your items back? He was on here in the past year stating he was getting people caught up, but your issues seem much broader than just a single cue project.

A show where you're chit chatting around a pool table with different pros and different locations around the world would be fascinating. Let local audiences come watch and ask some questions and the line out the door alone would be worth seeing. Maybe a local plays the pro for a quick set for...

Wow, that's incredible! Amazing work!

Lol, the attorneys in Dallas charge a minimum of $500+/hr and the patent trial attorneys I work with charge $1500+/hr. It's insane what attorneys charge, lol. #notanattorney

I'm not sure that it was just "reasonably priced," but rather well below market for a Searing. I'm sure there's plenty of people who would have paid at least $1k for that cue. The cue sold because the seller left dollars on the table/didn't maximize his profit, either as a gesture of kindness...

Definitely an amazing pickup! Congrats to the buyer and very generous for the seller to offer such a deal! I thought it was a scam, but nice to see that good things can happen, even in the pool world! Lol.

Looks like the OP updated his original post and has received his cue. Glad it got resolved and hope others get their cues back too.

I can't speak to the waiting time as all the Bluegrass cues I bought were second hand. But I checked the cues with Richard each time and he was very responsive and very nice about discussing tips. He even sent me a free Bluegrass hand towel. I enjoyed how Bluegrass cues played, similar to a SW...

PM me. Who did the install? I'm in Dallas and may have a resource.

Wow, amazing to learn what such an accomplished pro still plays with! Thanks for sharing and hope you post more often! Let's see those other cues.... Thank you for sharing Keith! -Ryan

I use a cotton rag and a few back and forth strokes and the CF shaft is clean as if it was new. I'm not sure an extra cleaning cloth is even necessary because the shaft is always smooth and like new again. The cotton cloth just removes whatever residue is on the shaft.

I'll take the Revo 3/8-11. Let me know your paypal info. Thank you, Ryan
