Pictures are back up now somehow

I just noticed that the cue pics had been deleted in my flicker account so they are back in there now in case anyone would like to view them. No telling how long they have been deleted since I have not clicked on the link in over a year...

That is certainly disappointing to hear the market for high end Gus Szamboti cues is getting worse every day. Is interest in pool in general worldwide going down as well?

Another big 10 day tournament/vendor experience ended at Derby City. What was the atmosphere like for the high end Gus Szamboti cues? Anyone willing to share some prices to help keep everyone educated?

Well, Another year has gone by so I stopped in to check what is happening in the high end Gus Szamboti cue scene before the Derby Classic. Is interest up or down? Thanks

Will there be a lot of cue dealers for used high end cues at the BCA Expo this weekend?

That is great news about having no confiscations. However, it is bad news for the community that the prices are being kept a secret. Oh well.....

Wondering if any high end Gus Szamboti cues sold at the Expo and at what price?

I already have the photocopy from Gus's order book. Thanks for the suggestion

I am not sure what happened to the pictures but I have managed to get them back up there for now https://www.flickr.com/photos/147088882@N02/albums/72157679608318555 $18,000 was the price I settled on after reading through the more than 100+ value estimates I received in private messages from...

What is the general feeling about the Super Billiard Expo next weekend? Is it a safe place for me to walk around with such an expensive cue and will there be enough people there to see it and make offers to make it worthwhile? It is about a 6 hour drive for me. Thanks

Is it your prediction that the high end cues like Szambotis are going to continue to go down in value?

That is certainly disappointing. With the stock market rising 50% having no effect then what will ever possibly cause a rise in interest in high end cues?

This is a good time to revisit the state of high end pool cue sales and interest since we just finished a 10 day event where a lot of cues were presumably bought and sold. Part of my interest in creating this thread was to show full disclosure of the bids I had received for my Szamboti and the...

I just looked it up.....April 12-15. Thanks for the suggestion!

It will have to wait until another time. I had thought Derby City was a 2 week thing but I see that it ends tomorrow. Maybe with the stock market going sky high maybe higher prices for rare cues will be more available. I hope so :)

I see The Derby City tournament thing has started. How is it looking there as far as possible buyers for my Gus Szamboti? What are the chances I will be able to sell it if I take the time/effort to get there in the next few days? Which day would you recommend I get there to get the most...

What amount is your buyer willing to pay?

How much did that sell for so the community has a better idea for what high end cues are bringing? I would like to compare to my Szamboti to learn more about the value. Thanks

Looks like you had the same luck I did. Maybe high end Szamboti's just don't sell well anymore.......
