Suck it up. Just get used to it. You have been doing this far too long to be bothered by such things, right?
It's kind of a circus I like to watch. I was very hyped up to buy one some time, sight unseen, but I am over it. I have seen pics of some of the deals and every one of them is a cue I would not have wanted to buy, not that they were not nice cues, just not what I want. Then I am stuck returning it or selling it and I just don't want to have to deal with all that.
The only time I was ever bothered was when you were trying to sell some cheap McDermotts at something like 50% over retail. I think it was an honest mistake though, I don't think you knew how inexpensive the cues really were. But that had nothing to do with whether or not you posted pics. I posted no comments about it in the for sale forum, but when you posted it in the open forum I said what I saw. But not angrily.
It's just a sideshow entertainment to me. Some get all riled up, but I don't know why.
