Hi guys. I would appreciate anyone that can give me a honest feedback on dealings with barrosm. I have just purchased a cue from Manny (barrosm) and would like to know if my money is safe going out to him. Anyone can vouch for him??

Thanks,

John
 
Hello, not trying to step on toes here, but this is just my two cents. When he put up his AE cue. Manny and I made arrangements for me to purchase the cue. Because he wouldn't accept paypal (Even after I offered to help him set one up), we had to do a postal money order. I had to wait a few days (3 to be exact, ready to buy on day 3), and Manny said this would be no problem and would mark the thread as a sold cue. On the third day, I contacted him via phone and pm. In both cases I had no response. I contacted him at least four times a day for the next 3 or 4 days with no response. Finally, I realized that AZ had that confirmation of delivery that could be added to the PMs. At this time, I was thinking that something had to be wrong with the pms getting to him because surely he would have just told me what was going on. When he realized it was confirmed, he finally replied "CUE ALREADY SOLD". That is exactly and entirely what the message stated.

Again, this is the facts of that particular situation, so my PERSONAL opinion of him is tainted. A good person would have simply told me that he sold the cue, instead of just ignoring me.

Just use a middleman, someone you both trust, and save any problems or the worry.
 
Great Idea. With someone like him, a middleman would ease any unsure feelings. It might cost a little more, but would save money and heartache in the long run if something did happen.

I just wanted to add that when I said use a middleman, I was not trying to put off bad vibes towards Manny. It would just simply eliminate the worry or wonder.

PM Bamacues and ask him if he would do it. Nobody should have a problem trusting him. I'm sure in the end the deal will work out fine either way.

Sorry Nine Ball. I see why you said that. I didn't mean to make it seem like you were making that sort of reference.
 
P.o.i.n.t.

Yes U Are Right I Held The Cue For 3-days But Never Herd From U Until The 4th Day I Had Cue Sold Pending, The 3-days If U Did Pm Me I Never Got It To Hold A Cue Any Longer May Have Cost My Sale So U Had Your Shot U Know The Good Old Sating $ Talks Someone Else Had It After The 3rd Day So Away It Went Soory U Did Not Have Cash You Offered Credit Card I Think If U Wont Something U Should Be Able To Buy Upon Wanting It, My And Your So Called Layaway Expired On The 3rd Day ''''end Of Story''''

No problem, I just didn't want there to be a mistake about what I said.

HAAAAA. I figured you would lie. I have every pm received and sent from and to you saved. If you or anyone would like to see them just ask me and I will quote them to you. Also, I have an Iphone which allows me to back up my phone calls made to itunes. So I have ALL the phone calls I made to you, During ALL four days.

Look Manny, this guy asked for people's opinions, and as I stated those were the FACTS of our situations. You obviously have better rep points than me and more transactions, you have been a member far longer. Our situation is over, so no need to lie anymore.
 
Cue

Point No Lies If You Cant Pay For A Cue Listed Dont Ask For Days To Pay;;;;;; I Waited 3 Nothing Cue Sold
 
No need to lie. Just let me know if you want to see all the saved pms and I can even email the call log.
 
Ernie Martinez

I purchased a nice 6 point Ernie cue from Manny about a year ago. We both live in the Denver area and did the transaction in person. No Problems, and I still have and love the cue.
 
Barrosm

I had no problems when I purchased a cue from Mannie. In fact, he went out of his way to make certain I was happy with the purchase. I'd buy from him any time.

I made a deal with Manny three weeks ago on the James White that he listed with the AE cue. I was nervous to send a money order out, & he did not want to send the cue with out payment. I suggested that he send the cue to the FedEx hub by my house, and mark it as COD-accept cash only. I told him this way there would be no concern on his end that the payment was good. He told me that he would send the cue, and e-mail me all the shipping info, and he never called me back. When I finally got a hold of him-after many voice mails never returned, he hung up on me when he found out who I was. I was not going to post anything negative on here because I thought that he could have handled this situation better, but maybe he was a stand up guy who just backed on on the deal we had made. I am just saying that he could have at least called me to try to figure out another way to close our deal where both of us could have been satisfied. I am not saying that he is a bad guy, I am just stating the facts of the only attempt at buying a cue from Manny. I will leave it up to you to draw your own conclusions
