What are your top 3 choices for cues that will most likely appreciate/go up in value (money wise) within the next one to three years?
In 123 order please.
Thank You for your post.
 
Its a hard Question but I think certain cues and cuemakers go up
in popularity and value when you get magazine attention and when
your cues are in the Bluebook of cues.BlackBoar is a sure bet that in
the future his cues will be sought after.
 
The cues from our defacto government to bail on your FRNs before they water down the soup any more.
Theses cues are priceless and will enable you to buy more cues in the future.

On a more serious note, cues are not a place to park money for a gain in perceived wealth. If you buy a cue for $500 today and it is worth $800 in the next three years you will be loosing money, and your bag of chips in the cupboard will also have gone from $5- $8.

Back to the op's ?............none.

I still love pool though:sorry:

What about a current cuemaker whose cues are just selling for an average market value? I remember a friend named Lou Esposito knowing I was a cue nut telling me about his nephew who was getting into making cues, I guess trying to drum up some business for him.

I bought maybe a half dozen cue from him over about 2 years. I think I may have been the first customer he had that he didn't personalty know. I wish I had them all now because is was Gus Szamboti. Who are some of the new undiscovered future stars now? Bob Manzino was building cues in little more then a closet, I am not kidding, and with the most beginner level of tools. Right out of the box he was building masterpieces.

I think that for the long future, I would put my money on Bryan Mordt as a cuemaker whose cues will certainly gain much more appreciation and value.

I also feel that Bob Runde cues are way under valued considering his influence and position in the history of cuemaking with his introducing Schon cues to the world.
 
I think Bryan Mordt is way underrated as a cue maker. He does excellent work. Uses some of the finest woods. And his fit and finish are flawless. I believe if more people had a chance to see a BCM in person his demand would certainly go up. His cues are half of what some of the other makers are asking and his attention to detail is unmatched. Obviously I have personal experience with him so I'm a little bias but his work speaks for itself. I could definitely see his demand continue to grow.

Also keep an eye out for Bob Danielson. He's been making cues under the radar for a while but I have a feeling his time in the spot light is coming. He posts here, check out some of his work.
