It's a scam. The cue was sold a few months ago. We all bid on it - I think it went for over $3,000. I reported it.
Here's the exact e-mail I sent E-Bay's "customer service" - I'm so fed up with this stuff.
" yet another copycat auction. this cue was sold several months ago on e-bay.
This is ridiculous. There is a new scam every day in the billiard department. E-bay needs to tighten security before your lose ALL of your customers. You've already lost a lot -except the scammers of course."
They're probably suspend my account.

A very ood friend of mine died a few years back, He was an avid cue collecter, his record keeping was maticulous.(much better than my spelling) Any way, among the 302 cues in that collection are several rambows. with the rounded ivory buttcap and ebony points.
Man I used to just love sitting in his living room with wall to wall cue racks surounding his pool table, just admiring the collection and playing show and tell with our latest finds.
Just before his death, We were working on some deals that would have added several vintage cues to my collection, including a similar rambow to this one. at what would be, by todays standards,a super deal. I had mentioned to him, that I would like to have a nice joss west, a super fancy palmer, and a one of a kind martinez. and a "real" rambow! He was going to help me out with all of this. But tragicly developed some very serious health problems. And was soon taken to a much better pool hall in the sky.
I sure do miss those evening visits. God bess you Burt.
Tate, good work, I like to think that pool cue collctors, are a rare group of folks that have a real appreciation of the artistic talents and abilitys, of both the game,and the beautiful craftsmanship of its delicate instuments.
I realy like the way this group of people helps watch out for one another. Keep it up!
Merry Christmas eveyone!
