The most I ever spent on a cue...description only...
- Thread starter Chopdoc
- Start date
Cue makers pay more to make cues than any of us pay to buy them.
That's kind of a rule in the universe. :grin-square:
Thanks for all your hard work. Seriously. :smile:

It definitely was. I ended up trading it off because it was too nice for me to play with. Too worried about dinging it up whenever I pulled it out of the case.
I guess I could have added it had 3 low and 3 high points. No inlays or veneers.
I don't want to jinx myself but it looks like I may get my dream cue next week. Hard to not talk/think about it.

@nd hand value
Makes no difference how much the cue costs as long as you like the cue and the 2nd hand value is more then you paid for it .
Love it when someone says I don't shoot good enough to own a expensive pool cue .
What does your shooting ability have anything to do with what value of a cue you are allowed to buy ?
As long as I can sale the cue for more then I paid for it , I am totally happy .regardless how the cue plays .
Only problem is some times the cue is so nice you don't want to play with the cue because its more of a work of art and looks like it belongs in a glass display case .
Only had that happen with one cue ,, 2nd cue from the end .

I'll attempt to describe my 8-point Josswest
Ivory points with silver veneer bridgepoint
Silver flaring out of the points
Abalone ovals and diamonds with ivory tips, double silver around the ovals and silver around the diamonds.
I can't count them all but there is at least 160 tiny ivory diamonds inlayed in the ringwork.
Ivory joint and butt cap with 4 other ivory & double silver rings in the back.
Radial pin, plays really good

You could have put the period before the word "and", then stopped the sentence right there.
Seriously? Why does secondhand value matter if you "like the cue"? I've paid money on many cues that I "like" fully knowing in advance that I wasn't going to get my money back if I were to sell one.
Guess what? I still have ALL the cues that I "like". Why in the heck would someone get rid of a cue that they like???

No comment on what the most is I ever paid for a pool cue. I'm starting PCA and committing myself. #PoolCueAddicts
