Here is the response I got when first inquiring if he was a buyer for my cue then moving on to him wanting me to ship him the cue for a $25 appraisal . And ending with the most professional email I've ever received. Just wanted to share because I'm at a loss for words.

I removed all the email addresses for privacy.

The emails to from last to first FYI


Michael ...

How stupid are you with such a piss poor attitude ...

You seem to think you have piece of Gold when it is only a 19 Oz piece of wood.

And yet you think one should give you a price without even seeing the cue in hand ...
You are really a dumb ass aren't you. You don't even know your ass from a whole
in the ground.

" the cue will not leave my possession " ... Again, how stupid are you ?

What you asking for is an appraisal of your Bill Schick Cue ...

I offer three appraisal services ...
$25 Verbal
$50 Written
$75 Written w/Color Photograph

Your Schick Cue would need to be sent to me for any of these
services ... I do not quote a price on a cue based on a photograph
and the sellers word as to the condition of said cue.

The cue will need to be shipped to my address listed below ...
Please let me know which service you are wanting and when you
are shipping the cue. Be sure to include your complete return
shipping details and $25 to cover your return shipping with full
payment for your choice of service desired.
I look forward to the courtesy of your reply today as to what you

I have no clue what it's worth or even if I will sell it. So I have no clue on its value. What do you think it's worth in today's market? Even if you take yourself out of the equation as a buyer what is it worth?

Thanks,
Mike

I need to know what price you are asking for this cue. What size are the shafts? What is the weight of the cue? Where is the picture of the It's George cue case?

I'm possibly looking to sell a cue I inherited. It's a 1986 Schick with two shafts one unused. It have ivory and what looks like gold inlays and is in its original George case. If I were to sell it would you be a buyer and in what price range? Thanks

Well do a search and don't be so surprised.

Anyways post some pics here, and Kenny at fourkingscues does a lot with Schicks and might be better suited both with experience and personality to assist you.

I was going to post almost the same response. Do a search and you will see some other threads that are WAY worse than what Roy said to you!

yeah no real surprises here... Roy has managed to garner quite the reputation for these kinds of outbursts. I'm sure there will be some that defend or even deny his behavior, but having experienced it first hand it's all very easy to believe.

WOW! That's some great customer service right there..I can't wait to send him a cue! I can't believe someone would respond like that, but I guess it doesn't shock me.

If you want just a "hey, it's probably worth x amount", post a few pics here. There are plenty of people on the forums than can give you a great estimate and then you go from there. You may or may not like what you here, but at least you'll know.

IMHO and I don't know Schick(t) :) Anyways its older, and even though I would like it better with veneers, I have to think its 2500-3000 give or take...

This sounds a lot like a PM I got from Danny Harriman out of no-where because I used his name in a joke in the "threads you won't see" post, very insulting for no reason. I think they drink from the same lead or mercury contaminated well.

If you want to appraise the cue, it will be very hard to do without them actually looking at it though, the value coulde be %25 or more off if there are finish issues or something else.

Here is the response I got when first inquiring if he was a buyer for my cue then moving on to him wanting me to ship him the cue for a $25 appraisal . And ending with the most professional email I've ever received. Just wanted to share because I'm at a loss for words.

OK.. who wants action...

A Roy thread.. one of two things is going to happen...

Roy will e-mail this site and threaten legal action and claim his communication was confidential and should not be posted and threaten to sue...

OR John Barton Caplin Collins Chin will come here and say that Roy is his best bud ever, and the OP must have done something to make Roy mad?

1:2 on the money...
