I second the one piece cues at Best Billiards in Las Vegas .. they are imported from Italy and very high quality, however I'm certain they cost considerably more than $12 a piece.
I don't use house sticks, but for those who do these sticks will give your pool hall a nice advantage over the completion.
Best is my pool room .. It's as clean and well run as ANY pool hall I've ever been in .. I put in about 20 hours a week there keeping my stroke straight on the heated 10 foot tables.
If your in town let me know and I'll play you a race to something.
