Connoisseur of Custom Cues

Nothing against the Cornerstone's and Crossroad's of the world but anyone who consigns a cue with a third party is essentially giving their cue away.
Even with a signed agreement you have very little recompense if that vendor files for bankruptcy or in the case of Joe, dies.
Sell or don't sell, but consignment is nuts.
I really feel bad for all the guys that have lost cues in this situation, Joe was an amazing dude, and would be ashamed at what his family has done.

So what do you know to make this type statement ?
This thread is a great example. Doesn't take any more to understand what he's saying.
Well I had one collector ask me to drive to their house, I declined.The other collector actually spoke with Joes wife and then every attempt at communicating since has been fruitless.
So...
Clearly I know more you.
Yeah I love the thinly veiled implication in his post as if he knows fucking anything or anyone impacted by this...
Stay out off NPR on here. All the geniuses are over there.
I would think if you have proof of ownership and records of sending it to him for work that's good enough to have it picked up Your cues aren't his ownership or probate. What you should have done was file a claim against his estate probate. Then probate couldn't be settled for the family without them satisfying that claim first.
Anyway back to the Salazar family, looks like they intentionally lied to you to keep stalling those that had cues with them. They had one excuse after another, even when they were put on notice. The mistake that was made here was for those affected trusting them and not just putting them on notice but filing an actual claim your self with his probate person. If you had records, then all family monies would have been tied up until your claims were settled first Who knows, probate may not be settled yet, you should have asked who was handling the probate right away. Sadly probate is probably a done deal by now
Really sad in how this turned out, but surely not unheard of in the pool world. With some it appears to be a big Ponzi scheme in how they do business. I would check first, right away, to see if probate is still open, then sue the family, at the very least in small claims court for stealing your goods and put a hurt on them. Some states are up to 10k now. It's a very easy process. They can easily be found if they have moved, banks will have records as to where money was moved to, the post office will have records of where mail was forwarded to. This is really sad to here every time it happens.
