2007 Richard Black 4 Pts Ebony Player - $29 per spot / $56 for 2 spots

Just an FYI for all interested parties. I now have 100% confirmation that at least one of the Predator cases that tas was raffling was a fake. This makes two different fake cases.

I would suggest that anyone with tickets in this raffle contact paypal for their money back.

Mike, with all due respect and it's your forum to run as you see fit, but I don't see this *member* banned.
 
I will need authentication from a 3rd party that this cue is real as well, otherwise I would like to be refunded.

So with all this going on and Tas never responded to me about my request for a LOA now can this raffle be going on still? Is he just trying to take his money and run?
I'd think with Mike our AZ mod warning us about this we all should listen....
Thanks Mike for looking into this and trying to prevent more fraud we all should take his advice!!! RED rep given and well deserved!
And running it with 4-6 spots requesting a refund. To bad that a person acts this way and abuses the raffles for a profit.

I wonder how this is going to play out. Did you mention anything about raffle or anything? This could be bad for more people then TAS....all thanks to TAS.:(

Well I didn't do it at the end, realizing exactly what you mentioned above. Since PP requires the URL link of the purchase, so I'm not entirely sure how to proceed yet.
 
i tried too

I tried the same thing but when i saw we need to add the link, i cancelled it right away! we cant do much to request from paypal but we need to get refunded from TAS himself.
 
Hopefully Tas will step up here and see the wisdom of proactively refunding everyone in light of his newfound credibility problems.

I don't see a huge problem with this raffle cue but must say these pictures are terrible. I would also not put much stock in the referenced proficentbilliards cue image as far as comparison sake.

this richard balck is original!

richard sign differently from year to years.

before 1980, he sign richard black'1979.... in the 2000 he started to sign richard black month year...

if u don't believe ask richard if he ever changes the way he sign his cue.... there is no fixed way he dated his cues. but his signature is most the same

this raffle will go on because this ia a real richard black..

any cue collector can see from all the pictures in my first thread.

this cue came from the USA!

Who are you to say the Raffle will go on if people ask to get out and want a refund..... why did you let Carl b out and nobody else
 
?

I have kept my mouth shut, as is my way, but I must say PLEASE do not involve Paypal. We all enjoy the raffles. There is no one who spends more in them than me. I hold quite a few with quality products. I've always been fair and I'm sorry to see someone who may not be. I know I would pay $56 for that cue even if it's not a Black. I would be mad for being scamed, but not willing to give up the raffles. The guy is done in the raffle setion and let it go at that. We can't gamble on losing everything.

Tas whats going on?

Are you going to raffle this thing off and just exclude those who are uncomfortable with participating in your raffles and refund them their money and if their number hits it goes to the next highest number (or something to that effect)?

I just want to get this over with and be on my way. But you need to come up with a plan that is honest and fair:

Either the cue is a fake and you refund everyone and that is the end of it,

Or if the cue is genuine, you just let it go tonight and whatever happens to you happens to you.

Whoever wins this is obviously going to have it verified, so keep that in mind.

Either way, I'm not going to wait for this raffle to not fill and not get my money back.

Please advise!
Justin.

If mistakes been made it but I suggest to correct it coz now is not money issue.!!!
Now it's your own reputation issues.!!!

choice/chance
 
The reputation boat has sailed. The issue right now is this raffle, for an alleged Richard Black. What the heck is going on?!

This raffle will not fill to compensate for those who have understandably backed out. Tasaddicts has made sure of that by knowingly raffling fraudulent material on more than one occasion.

He has to take care of this raffle though! What is going to be?

A. REFUND EVERYONE ON YOUR OWN ACCORD BECAUSE THE RAFFLE IS FOR A FAKE RICHARD BLACK CUE OR BECAUSE YOU CANNOT OTHERWISE IN GOOD CONSCIENCE ALLOW THIS RAFFLE TO CONTINUE OR;

B. ALLOW THE RAFFLE TO PROCEED BECAUSE THE RICHARD BLACK IS GENUINE AND TAKE LESS MONEY AND WORK OUT A FAIR SYSTEM TO AWARD IT TO A TICKET HOLDER WHO HAS NOT OBJECTED TO PARTICIPATING IN THE RAFFLE TONIGHT.

That is my suggestion. Considering we have like an hour to go, I'd like to hear some people's input on this, considering the majority, including myself, are still in the raffle. However, I don't think he will ever fill another raffle. So it goes down tonight, or we all get refunds initiated by Tasaddicts himself starting as soon as the raffle is drawn.

tasaddicts, even if the cue in the pictures are real, the one you will be sending out will not be real. stop trying to screw people over one more time and refund their money like they are requesting!

I have emailed Mr. Black and he said he CANNOT verify the authenticity of this cue based on the pictures provided. So your statement of "The pictures of this cue are authentic" is just another petty attempt for you to use twisting language to get over on us. Do you REALLY think we are that stupid!

Haha, "When I got these cases I realized they were fakes and knockoffs, so I decided to list them as tribute cases."

Might as well say, This Black is a fake, so when I listed it, I decided to list pictures of a real black, then say the pictures are of a real black, so 'surely' this must be real."

What a joke, refund everyones money and be on your way please.

Carl
