Why not just post the damn pic of the cue? 14th from the left, should I do headstand while I order it?

Mike Pancerny for sure. Just had some refinish work done on a shaft by him and test hit with a few of his finished cues. All top notch. I'm looking at trying to get one of his customs here very shortly. http://www.customcuemaker.com/index.htm

My band in on myspace, don't know if that count's by my bass player and myself are pretty avid pool players. www.myspace.com/vanitysupercharger

I get pretty jazzed when it's my league night. Practice days at pool halls are fairly standard now for me, but I look forward to Thursday night all week just so I can compete.

Denatured alcohol won't harm the shaft. It's often used in wood working to easily clean sawdust (from sanding, etc.) off wood products.

Interesting, I'll have to give that a shot.

Magic Eraser as in the cleaning pad you buy to scrub the stove with?

Very cool, now I just need to know how to score bowling cards.:eek:

You're not even close with this number. As for the China quality issue I'll say this; when it comes to wood it's generally not a good idea to ship it back and forth overseas (saltwater) on barges. This has been a constant issue with the skateboarding community as the wood becomes more prone to...

Sounds like the scammers got what they deserved for a change. Now that you have the cash for your buddy, I'll give ya $50 to ship the cue to me.;)

The Hustler is next on my list, the book store didn't have it so I'll need to order it.

So I just read the Color of Money over the past two days and very much enjoyed it. I was pretty suprised at how vast the differences between the book and the movie were though. Outside of the character names and some dialog here and there, they weren't even close. Which did you enjoy more?

He was at the Shark Club in Canton. It was nice because is was a very low key thing. No one really announced that he was coming so there were no crowds.

I'd love to, but being in the Metro Detroit area doesn't make it easy to get ahold of people like Dawn let alone get lessons. Does she have any instructional DVD's or anything?

No, but he was kind enough to answer some questions after. I told him I'd only been playing seriously for three months and he was pretty impressed. Maybe there's hope for me afterall, lol.

That doesn't surprise me at all. He took the time to sign everybody's item, take photos, chat, and shoot games with complete strangers and treat them like friends. It's always nice to meet a professional (in any walk of life) and have them represent their craft that way.

So Allen showed up to support a new rack our BCA league is using and I had a chance to get a photo, an autograph and shoot a game with him as well. Didn't do all that well, but I'm only a C player anyway. Watched him clean house for a couple of hours before he had to leave. Hell of a nice guy.

No, no one can force you to leave feedback but an attitude like this is what perpetuates the problem to begin with.

I'll disagree with this. Using Ebay for purchases means being familiar with and using their feedback system not only to help yourself, but to help others as well.

I still have my first cue. Then again I only bought the thing two months ago. Crappy used Mecucci, but I upgraded to a McDermott Summit and now I'm looking at adding Pechauer and Joss' as well. Funny how that always seems to happen.
