bad transaction by memeber on az

[m.libre10]

ok

if your read the thread of my durbin for sale


I posted that while your cue is still in transit/I never had it on hand not until late monday afternoon. The original post of that was saturday I think. You see I took your word for it that it only had a test hit and its almost brand new. In fact you clearly stated n one of your emails that its just a few months old. So, at that point assuming that you were telling the truth is how I came up of how to describe your cue.

That is very risky to say the least. I know I would not be comfortable buying a cue that the seller has never even seen.

My experience buying cues via the internet is this: First cue, a Lucasi, was warped. Seller said it was straight as an arrow. $75 dollar lesson learned.

Second cue, unknown maker, was warped, butt spins 360 degrees like a wheel on a car, and the wrap looks like it was installed by a third grader. Another lesson learned.

Third cue, the transaction got so messed up that I paid the guy $50 just to forget the whole thing.

In this case, the guy got a beat up cue that he didn't want and had too much integrity to resell, and fifteen people come on here had hammer the guy for returning the cue.

That is exactly why I'm reluctant to buy cues on the internet. I overpayed for my current playing cue and I knew it, but at least I rolled it and knew it was straight, and hit some balls with it.

If anybody wants a warped, unknown cue with a wrap that needs to be replaced and a spinning butt, let me know.

i won't take sides. just convey my experiences here.

i am new here and maybe too trusting by nature but i have had 5 or 6 deals here in about a month+ and each and every one have been great!

i thought i had one deal that for me was a lot of money, and it didn't pan out even after i committed for the buy, but the other party has an excellent reputation here and i am sure that is not a mistake. I believe his side of things. it didn't work in my favor, but i don't feel i was cheated either.

by and large, by my experience here to date, i would deal with any azer with trust. very rare to say that today. you all in my way of thinking are what NYC cue dude described while severely criticizing me (my fault), described in his words:

"What we are, is a devoted group of civilized pool enthusiasts. We look out for each other, but at all costs, we remain both respectful and civilized".

Great description of this forum and it's inhabitants.

m.libre10 & mikeyfish seem to be whole upon mikeyfish receiving his cue and money, so to me each having a loss of a little $, there is no issue here. exactly as NYC cue dude expressed about azers.

if i am meddling when i shouldn't, sorry. but thanks to all of you for my experiences here and being so trustworthy.

loosing 15 or 20$ is not like loosing 400$ or more

to me thats the price of doing buisness. if your not happy with the cue send it back.

i sell all items with a gaurentee now. (thanks tate)

selling, buying, and trading site unseen is very tough

its not easy to learn all the "ins and outs" of azb

chalk it up as lessons learned. i dont think either should be hurt by this as long as the deal is complete.
