You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown! The buyer has been reimbursed and I'm out a total of $1200. Just so the entire pool world knows my shortcomings. Jason, I'm pleased to see that you reimbursed the buyer of the cue. As you may have judged, I was disturbed by this whole incident, and your...

Jack Madden Cues (You're On The Right Track!) I've recently corresponded privately with one AZ'er who has owns and has owned a number of Southwest, Olney, Capone, Barnhart, and Schon (Runde-era) cues, and this person told me that John (Jack) Madden told him he could make him a cue that would...

Jason Sheerman, You're Guilty of Internet Fraud! Mr Sheerman, I believe your reply to the OP's post explains it all. You set up a deal for somebody using two of your accounts, AZBilliards.com, and Paypal.com. Your Paypal account drew funds from a fellow AZ user's account, and that person did...

This is just my opinion,and I'm not bashing the company at all, but as far as personal feel, they're junk compared to the Kamui Black. Tommy D. Tommy D, You have a right to your own opinion, but the word "junk" should NEVER be used in asscociation with the Tiger Onyx tip. I've tried the...

One Man's Ceiling Is Another Man's Floor! "I'd like to trade my cues for something better..." Hello, Perhaps the word "fancier" would be more appropriate than "better." As you already have a Tim Scruggs, Joss West, David Kikel, you already have some of the best hitting cues ever made, or...

Great Deal or Fools Gold? $80.00 for all six tips would not be a crazy price at all. But if the OP is asking $80.00 per tip, then I'd politely decline. That kind of dough could buy 4-5 Tiger Onyx tips, or something perhaps as good from Kamui, Talisman, or Molavia. To each his own, but $80.00...

Lucasi Hybrid & Viking Cues "Thorsten Hohmann plays with a Lucasi Hybrid. Sure proves it's more of the player than the cue." There's really nothing wrong with a Lucasi Hybrid. A lot of technology went into the cue. The feel of the hit is elegantly smooth. Not as stiff as a Schon or Joss...

Scruggs Butt w/Black Collar Hello Tony, One member asked you if the shafts were original. As the butt of the cue has a black collar, logic would tell me that the original Scruggs shafts would have a matching black collar at the joint. I've never owned a Scruggs sneaky, so I'm not sure if...

The R-6 is the best Schon design of the Runde era, in my opinion, along with the fancier R-12. An R-6 for $600.00 seems like a no brainer. Classic design with a black butt cap. Simple, yet elegant, and a true player, as well as an eye catcher. If I didn't already have one in mint condtion...

That is the original weight bolt, for sure. Your cue is a perfect weight. No need to take the bolt out. I believe these bolts are the same as what the older C and D-series McDermotts used, and they can be pretty hard to find. I have an 80's Joss, in which the butt of the cue is missing such a...

Shaft Taper? Thanks For Your Reply! Neil, I haven't seen any reply regarding my previous post, and questioning whether this shaft has a different taper than a standard Jacoby maple shaft? On the Jacoby website, it simply states pro taper. I don't like the taper of a Jacoby sneaky pete. So if...

Shaft Taper of Jacoby Edge? Hello, Is the taper of the Edge shaft any different from a standard maple shaft from Jacoby? I have a Jacoby sneaky pete, and the taper gets progressively wider after about 10 inches. I was hoping that these laminated shafts might have a longer pro taper. Thanks...

15.2 oz. Butt (Weight Bolt?) I have an R-6, Runde-era Schon, and I would never sell it. I looked for a nice one for more than five years, and the wait paid off. I've since been lucky to find another original shaft with full micarta ferrule, and with a shaft diameter close to 13 mm, also having...

Hello, I sent two PM's, but neither shows up in my sent folder. I'm not sure if you got them or not? I had a few questions about Frey cues, regarding different joints, and other options. Perhaps you can email me directly at strum4u@msn.com, and include your contact information. Thanks, Glen

Which Frey "Old School" Sneaky's Are Left? Hello, Which three cues do you have left, of this batch? Have each of the two Cocobolo cues sold? If not, I'd be interested in number 11. Thanks, Glen

SOLD! Up for auction is a McDermott D-4, in super nice condition, with an opening bid of $SOLD. Somebody on this forum had one of these cues recently sell for the same amount, and it was in nowhere near as nice of condition. The cue weighs 20 oz., and has a great hit, as McDermott's from...

Meucci Originals Price Drop! (They Don't Make 'em Like This Anymore!) Hello again, I just dropped the opening bid price on this to $135.00. That's as low as I'll go for a shaft that stands out against the masses. Old-growth wood that is straight as an arrow. How many times have you seen...

Meucci Originals Price Drop! (They Don't Make 'em Like This Anymore!) Trying to learn this forum. Just read about 48-hr. rule of re-posting or doing a bump.

Hello again, No, I'm not claiming that Meucci is having their shafts made in China. I'm speaking about the company that is the leading seller of low-deflection shafts. And I'm not saying that they aren't any good. I'm just saying I prefer the shafts that this company had made for them by...

A new low deflection shaft, made in China, will cost more than my opening bid price. I was told that this shaft was very special, by someone who works on hundreds, if not thousands of shafts per year. That's good enough for me.
