Yes. I watched Stan snap off a good number of 8 and 9 ball tournaments all over Western Canada back in the 90s, including a few in the hall where I worked. Good to hear that he is still playing well.

Wow, nice. The man has serious ability.

Nice cue, Jim. Good luck w/sale.

Cool! Thanks to OB and TAR for this.

As am I: just passed the 10 month mark.

This. Morra's a beast.

I think I know that guy... "Kooombayaaaaah, M'lord, Koombayahhh..."

Snooker for me, followed by straight pool. I'd like to play more of both.

I'm in the same boat as the OP: out about $400, and no cue or refund looming. Nothing against American artisans (I was going to buy a Josey; you can now imagine which maker I wish I had 'supported'), but I had recently spent some time in the Philippines, and met some great people there. Les...

Those are gorgeous, shouldn't last long.

I frequent a few different instrument forums, and Gibson does not seem to enjoy a sterling reputation. I'm not a user of their products, and it seems likely that I won't become one in the near future.

The dog I have in this fight is in regard to the money that I sent to Les Lacson for a cue made by the Bebots. I have received neither a refund, nor a cue. I'm not sure what my province of residence has to do with anything, but I'll reciprocate: why would someone from Virginia respond to my...

I'm sure you mean well, but it sounds as though you have no dog in this fight (i.e., you haven't been jerked around by Les). Your patriotic fervor works for you, but there are plenty of people frequenting the forum that choose to buy from countries other than the United States, for a variety of...

Everet is still there? That is awesome. What about 'Flash'? I bought my first decent cue, a Falcon, from Bill, about 15-16 years ago. They were a funny pair.

This kid is on fire. Such a pleasure to watch.

Of the three you mentioned, I would go with a Peradon (Riley cues = junk, in my mind). You didn't mention if you've previously owned a snooker cue, so if this is a first purchase, you'd likely want to keep your costs down. I noticed in the classifieds that Jim Baxter has a Peradon two-piece...

Great stuff to see. He looked as though he was merely waltzing around the practice table. I only wish I could ever free pot like that.

Good to hear. The rest of us will continue to wait.

I'm in the same boat as Sascha. I have no idea if the Bebots even rec'd my cue order, and Les has offered the same 'new maker' deal to me. There's nothing else for it, really. I'm not about to fly to Rizal and hunt him down over ~$400. I (and everyone else in this mess) may or may not get a...

Cool! Thanks for this, Denise.
