How is the finish on these cues? I picked up a kaiser recently just to try, and you can feel the veneers and ringwork through the finish.

You should design a limited run cue (say 10ish?) at a higher price and call them the Crown Twister or something like that. Obviously this would be a 'on a list' type item, but i'm sure some collectors would love to have a piece of history that helped to rebuild a great cue company.

My thread is the other thread linked, i'm actually 'buying' an i3 shaft from someone and I had a question on the longer furrel. btw here is an email from Jayme at McDermott about the long furrels.

Found Jayme's email address and sent in the question to him about the ferrul length on the i-shafts. Thought I would share his reply. Thanks for the input as well! :)

I'm looking at an I3 shaft locally, ( only pics so far ) and i have a question. My understanding is that the I series has a short 1/4 inch furrel. This one has what looks like a 1 inch furrel on it. Also, from the pictures I can't tell if the I3 icon is blue or black. It should be blue but it...

No wonder I don't find many good deals in pawn shops around here. Troy (Koinnkid) must be finding all of my great buys! So far i've found a McDermott NavigatorII for $125 and a Predator 99-2 for $65. So far i'm not reselling anything, but I may try using them on trades one day. Havent...

I also have been wondering how to take good pictures of my cues. I think I have the macro settings down right, I have turned off the flash and tried to use a decent amount of indirect lighting to make up for the flash. This helped reduce the bright spots that you see reflecting off the finish...

For that condition, you could probobly get 150ish maybe 200 for the cue. The McD tube case you don't see very often on ebay, but they seem to go for 100-150. If the case is the 3 piece 'super mac' case, then it would go for more. There are a few other McDermott collectors (Phinmole) who...

Bump for some good deals from a great guy. :)

A couple things. 1. Most retailers have a 'clearance' or other area of their business that is sold 'as is', or 'no returns' However they can still stand behind the main line of their business. It sounds like this is the case with Lee and the sweatshirts. 2. If you checked the return policy...

Nice looking case. While I normally wouldnt post on a thread that is this derailed, I figure I would make a few comments. 1. Comparing this thread to buying a knockoff purse/watch on the streets is different. Most of the street pushers will swear up and down they are the 'real' thing (not...

This would mainly be done to a poor condition D series. Might be tempting if I found a D series retro cue cheap. But if it would hit like complete junk, then its not worth persuing when I eventually find the right cue.

I have been looking at various Jump/Break cues lately. Alot of them look great, but i havent jumped on one yet. Since I primarly collect McDermott D series cues, I obviosly don't have a JB cue from that line to add to my collection. This lead me to the question of is it possible to convert...

Thanks to all who posted or PM'd me, Picked up 2 great D series from KoinnKid and need to replenish my cue buying fund before I can get another! :)

Been looking at some older McDermott C & D series on ebay, and thought I would see what people here have. Don't really need 98% collectors, these will be added to my playing rotation.

So i'm just starting to get into cue collecting. Mainly i'm building my collection of McDermott's. Since most of mine are well used (sadly sometimes abused) players that I have aquired, I want to try to clean them up as much as I can. For a few I do plan to send them in for the refinishing...

Depending on your playstyle, you could be Melinda "Silent Gayle" <lastname> You play silent, but you are deadly. ok.. yes this was meant as a joke :) someones post made me think of this.

Beauty of a Schon.

From what i've seen, the people that ask for the 3% fee, are people who accept multiple forms of payment. If someone only accepts paypal, then i'm sure they would probobly just add it into the cost of the cue. ( IE sell the cue for 110 instead of 100 )
