    Entertaining cue listings

    This is attributed to the Blue Book in IMHO. They have the Premier at $ 800.00 in the book. But more importantly it maybe a Sampaio but it is definitely a 70's version. They tried to make them look like American cues with the rings, etc.. The two I show here are the imported versions from the...

    Pool Ball Collecting.

    Abe collected everything. He has the most ridiculous collection I have ever seen. Cues, cases, balls, tables, cue lockers, cue drawers. He had ivory balls, and in fact he had a closet that if you opened it, vintage boxed sets. He was in the pool game a long time. He would buy, complete lines...

    Pool Ball Collecting.

    There was a guy that came around the SBE. He was an older fellow and a ball collector. I had a mint set of II's and he saw them. We talked price, he went around the show, came back, talked some more, went around the show, and finally purchased them. He probably bought 4-5 sets from us. This was...

    Selling cues safely?

    I have extremely good customers where the latter is not uncommon. But for someone I do not know, or have not done business with, that will not happen. JV

    IT JUST AINT THE SAME....

    There are over 1 billion FB Billiard sales groups. :) But a lot of the people are the buyers/sellers that were here. There are a load of scammers taking pics, creating fake accounts, not for the novice for sure. There are razzes if that is your game... Just another outlet... JV

    I need expert advice on selling cues over the internet.

    OK first off, you are the seller. Tougher to scam the seller, than to be a scammer as a seller. You will be on the receiving end of the cash. The theoretical way you could get scammed is someone reverses a charge on a G/S payment, or CC payment. The reason is irrelevant because they will 99%...

    Help with Eddie Taylor’s personal Mike Segil cue

    Like I said... it's your audience. For a while I was into Jeepster Commandos, at the time a decent one went for 3-5K. Then Leonard Nimoy's Jeepster surfaced, and it had 2-3 owners since. BUT had the original Nimoy paperwork. It sold for 12K. Nimoy probably used it on a large property as a ranch...

    Help with Eddie Taylor’s personal Mike Segil cue

    My words are about the cue in general and its merit as a "collectible". I said nothing about value. Your value is fair, IMHO. I try not to publicly place values on cues because a few hundred either way, high or low, it could be construed I was trying to influence cue values too positively or...

    Help with Eddie Taylor’s personal Mike Segil cue

    In the real world.. you have a cue that was made by a Hall Of Fame player, turned cuemaker, made for a HOF player. Someone collecting HOF player cues, should be ecstatic to have a cue that checks two boxes. This is a cue sold as a collectible, more than a player. Anyone that respected pool...

    Pool Ball Collecting.

    No.. sold it. seriously though we have had a few I think they were all the II's. IIRC though a long time ago a set belonging to Joe Balsis was sold, the I's like yours. The seller I believe said that players of a tournament got to keep the balls at the end of the tournament. It was a pro player...
