Maybe its hand delivered by a dude in a Ferrari, sitting in a case made from emeralds and rubies and the cue itself was crafted from 10,000 year old wood that was so hard in order to use it they soaked it in the tears of 100 babies born on February 29th Leap Day in the Leap Year of 1980.

After it is delivered you get to keep the case and the Ferrari too!

hahahhaa - agreed I think that unlocks the "special features" perhaps it doubles into a special aerial antenna, and while you are playing for money it "supernaturally" tunes in "Kenny Rogers - The Gambler".

The case was made for a Princess a few years ago. It was going to be given to her as a present for her marriage. However, this being the 21st century and all, the case builder took it to deliver to the princess on the wedding day last month in California. As it turned out the "princess" was a huge biker dude named "Prince-less" with assless chaps getting married to a hairdresser named Burt. Well the case maker understandably freaked out and puked into the case, it was dropped and slid (utilizing the slippery nature of fiber rich puke) and slid into the storm drain. Where our seller found it scouring for more soon to be eBay treasures.

The "Ferrari" as it turns out is actually a 1986. However, he uses the term Ferrari loosely. In this case it turns out to be a Fiero with a Ferrari conversion kit. The license plate does however read "4RE" so I am sure that adds to the value.

EDIT: I am sure the seller will find the "Ferrari's" secret code hidden under the bumper here too!
 
I found some info in here on the secret code, but I can't disclose it. Sorry.

My favorite line in the ad lol

I really don't want to sell it but people keep asking
for my selling price so the answer is $50,000.

What is it WORTH?
To someone not interested in cues, it may not be worth
a single penny. To someone who wants and can
afford a space flight for $1,000,000+ and wants a
ONE OF A KIND cue, it is worth $50,000.
 
what that line means is if i can find an idiot that has more money than sense. what's really funny is that barry's early cues didn't play all that well and i assume that this is one of the early cues since it was purchased in 91. i'm not even sure how good his cues play now.

I own a first year cue and it plays fantastic, one of the best playing cues I own and I own quite a few.

Everyone can have their own opinion about cues.. I'm very partial to Barry's cues..
I have to agree with MarsMan...I played with a 1991 Barry that played as good as any cue made...
I've owned many 90's Barry cues, and still scratching my head about your statment..


Obviously someone is trying to find a sucker on Ebay... Nothing to do with playablity...
Best,
Ken

I was also at that BCA show and I got the deal of the show.

I got THE SECRET DECODER RING directly from Barry. He knew I would keep it safe until the owner of the SPECIAL cue came forward.

All we needed was our first black president and the cue would come forward.

Now we will all see what the secret code means. I just need the owner of the cue to ship it to me, FOC, and I will decode it for him.

I get to keep the cue as a commission for decoding.

Whats funny is when someone says something stupid..
Please enlighten us from your vast experience on Barry Szamboti cues, that his early one's don't play well..

Maybe it's your play, not the cue..

Hey Ken, hopefully you haven't had your "daily call" with Barry yet, but when you do, can you ask him about this cue? See if he remembers it? Hell, maybe when you're over at his house this week again maybe you can just pull it up on the computer....

Just curious about it, thanks...
 
I'm the seller. The cue and the case are being sold as a package for $50K. I will not sell the cue separately.

If you want the case only, I will sell that by itself and throw the cue back in my warehouse to get lost for another 18 years. The price for the Porper 1X2 is $49,000. BUY IT NOW!

j/k


I get a kick out of this part too:

guaranteed to be as advertised but is SOLD AS IS, without warranty

What does that even mean?
