OK, so even though I bought my McDermott, I've still been coming here and looking at cues being sold. I keep seeing some terms, and frankly, I can't figure out what they mean. Now, before anyone laughs at me (and yes, some of these will probably be n00b questions about terms), I'm sure I'm not...

That is a LOT of ivory going to the Orient! :shocked: I hadn't heard about it, was there a news article or something...?

I've said the same thing a couple of times previously. Apparently some people don't like to post the price, for some strange reason.

Damn, if it were an I-2 I'd buy it. :frown: Don't forget the MSN 25% CashBack from Buy It Now purchases on eBay. I've posted the details on how to get that at least a dozen times now. :cool:

OK, I'm probably going to get flamed for this, but c'mon, how "old" can you be, that you can't even use proper English or grammar?!?!? :confused: Both of you write like an 8 year old child who's failing English in 4th grade! :rolleyes: I had to re-read most of the posts in this thread 3 or 4...

Thanks! I didn't realize I could go that. So that coupon would effectively save me 30%? (20% discount from reseller, + 10% discount by using coupon.) I just sent them an email, since their website doesn't show the I-2 with the Quick Release joint size (according to McDermott, it's a 3/8"-16 size.)

I never understand or get why people say "the pics I have are too large/big to upload, but I can email them..." Just go to ImageVenue.com, choose your photos, and then post the links. Doesn't matter how big they are. :cool:

Just wanted to reiterate this again, since I think it's a great deal and might help you sell your stuff on eBay. Don't know if you know this or not, but right now Microsoft Live Search is offering a 25% cashback deal for Buy-It-Now purchases on eBay, so you might be able to work out a deal with...

I'll toss my two cents in here. I picked up the McDermott M2-9A"Knight" cue, from a seller on eBay (which turned out to be a pawn shop local to me), for $510 out the door. MSRP (as you can see from the link) is $1,489, and with the usual 20% discount McDermott allows resellers to offer, you can...

AFAIK, the "official rules" from both BCA and WPA allow it: BCA rules SUPPLEMENTAL RULES, 1.4 EQUIPMENT RESTRICTIONS (a) Cue Stick - Each player is permitted to use one or more cue sticks that meet the specifications listed in the equipment specifications section. He may use either a built-in...

I posted this in another thread that is for an eBay auction, figured I'd post it here again for your benefit: Just an FYI...Microsoft Live Search has a 25% Cash Back Promotion on eBay when someone used Buy It Now. All the buyer needs to do is use Microsoft Live Search (like THIS link), then...

Just an FYI...not sure if this works on eBay Canada or not, but Microsoft Live Search has a 25% Cash Back Promotion on eBay when someone used Buy It Now. All the buyer needs to do is use Microsoft Live Search (like THIS link), then click the Gold Coin at the top of the page where it says...

I would agree with that...apparently, I'm about to become a McDermott fan, seeing as I picked up a gently used McDermott M2-9A for $511 cash. Going to go pick it up in Naples tomorrow. :) Definitely looking forward to playing with it this weekend. :grin:

Well, actually, I *did* find a matched set, but the seller wanted too much ($2,000; I offered him $1,600, and he said he'd "think about it" but never got back to me, so I guess that's my answer.) Anyway, found a local seller who has a McDermott M2-9A in pristine condition. $511 out the door...

just to clarify, I wasn't trying to knock your price, just pointing out what I had seen and offering my opinion. I think if someone were looking for that cue, and willing to spend that much on it, they might be more inclined to go that route and have a perceived savings, even though you're...

I think it's a combination of asking too much, and production cues not being popular here. For example, there's a McDermott M89B #7 of 50 on eBay right now for $1,650 Buy-It-Now, and using the Microsoft Live Search promotion, the buyer can get $200 cash-back (actually, it's 25% which comes to...

LOL I hadn't made it that far yet, still working my way past page 98. :p

Actually, no: http://www.snopes.com/photos/natural/sedalia.asp That photo has been floating around for a WHILE and has been attributed to various years, storms, states, and towns. "Acording to the National Weather Service Forecast Office in Melbourne, Florida, this photograph was snapped near...

Because I'm curious as to what it sold for, that's why I asked. :rolleyes: And FYI, I haven't "attacked" anything, I simply expressed my opinion. If you don't like it...well, I could tell you what to do, but I'm pretty sure you already know what I'm thinking. Now do me and everyone else a...

That's comparing apples and oranges. :rolleyes: Cues aren't diamonds, and they're worth what someone is willing to pay for them. I certainly wouldn't pay $2k for it, IMHO. But that's just me. :cool:
