Balabushka GB-8 Custom

hey sailorboy...

Smoke, sorry you didn't get the cue :ignore:

I'm also sorry she and her husband may be having some difficulties but, she at the very least should have contacted you and explained her situation -- I'm sure you would have gladly let the other person buy the cue with your blessings.

The good news is that you really didn't want/need this cue anyways :duck:

no sweat my friend...

i was swindled out of a pair of sw's i 'bought' [i committed for on site and in PM] here on AZ and then they wanted to sell it back to me for more! i guess a 'corporation' of sellers. i wanted to "fix" these guys a$$e$. still might, who knows.

the sad part for me: i guess an elderly couple lost sight of their principles. but since i am old too, i can imagine their lives/fears and i have no ill will. for their own sake i wish that they had more faith and trust in others. it would i think do them good.

and yes, the cue was of no use and had no value to me. even your 18.4 oz woody is too heavy for me now, by about an oz. but still has pretty wood. and i'll play a rack with it every once in a while.

but BALABUSHKA-LADY'S dropping the price 25% and including the xtra shaft, i just didn't want to see it drop further, i felt that was not fair to them, and also thought they must really need the money. i have room in my 12x24's for more cues so what the hell, another beautiful cue can fit.

i took the sw hit a little harder, but this was a walk in the park except for the disappointment of feeling betrayed for a few dollars.

anyway, life goes on...

all the best,
smokey
 
yup!! your should!!

but let me also say, i loved the vid you did that sk put up on your thread:

you're just a littleboy, and i'm a lot older so you better take heed youngin'; it is the quality of the heart that matters. i was just saying... for a kind young man, you were being thoughtless to an older woman.

we can all be like friends here and treat each other equally, but we should always be respectful especially to the elderly or those that are not so knowledgeable.

when you understand, send me a pm and i just hope i will still be alive by then. but maybe you will surprise me and i will get to read it before i die.

wishing your the best okie [no disrespect for the okie, i'm just a redneck from NYC - we're even]

all the best,
smokey

How old are you?

thoughtless....and she pulled the carpet out from under you.......hmmm

i don't like to play games but just for once:

guess how old i am...

and yes, in some eyes i was a fool. but i will be that fool again.

just a biker's story but illustrates the above, saying...

if you have never gone down [crashed] you will...
if you have gone down, you will again.

that's riding and that's also life.

and sorry for another saying...
it's not the destination, it's the ride.

like in life the destination is death for us all, it's only the ride that counts.

did you send me a pm?

best,
smokey
