Craigslist Ripoffs...

congratulations

I posted a while back about this guy that has been posting those GW series production cues and a few Fury's and calling them "high dollar" around the Seattle area... I used to create postings in reply with links to what he was really selling and they always got removed...

So I finally decided to contact him.

Here are the two adds below:

http://seattle.craigslist.org/skc/spo/1497862644.html (this is a Fury)

http://seattle.craigslist.org/skc/spo/1497860328.html (this has the AWESOME UniLoc joint!!)

Here's a few quotes....

I will give you an honest piece of advice... DO NOT BUY A CUE STICK UNLESS IT HAS THE "Uni-Loc" Joint, as the Uni-Loc Joint is the very best when it comes to the most secure and tight fitting joint possible.

If you want one of the best cue sticks for playing on a pool league then buy one of these... as I guarantee you that you will not find a better cue stick for the money!!!

I guarantee when you see these cue sticks in person that you will definately buy at least one of them.

These cue sticks are better than most of the $1000 cue sticks on the market today!


Here's an email I sent him...

Dude.... That's a cheap(ish) production cue. There are ZERO inlays on that cue. And for the record, the Uni-Loc joint was the WORST joint ever made... There is a reason you never see them.

You're a used car salesman when it comes to cues....


Here's his responses (all in seperate emails...) His email address is dapskis@yahoo.com - feel free to chime in...

Email 1: TAKE A HIKE!!!!!!!!

YOU DON'T KNOW A DAMM THING WHEN IT COMES TO CUE STICKS!!!

My response: The fact of the matter is you are trying to rip off the uneducated pool population - period.

I know more about cues than you will ever. I own joint protectors worth more than what you are selling...

You've been preying on unsuspecting people trying to pawn off Fury cues (in some cases) as custom when they are $85 production cues... You're what give pool a bad name.

Email 2: YOU ARE THE BAD NAME BUDDY... MIND YOUR OWN F.. BUSINESS AND TAKE A NICE HIKE TO NO WHERE!!!


Email 3: YOU DON'T KNOW A RAT'S ASS ABOUT CUE STICKS!

Email 4: THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS THAT YOU ARE A HARASSIER!

Email 5: I DON'T CARE WHAT THE HELL YOU THINK!

Email 6: AND NOW JUST BECAUSE OF YOUR UNJUST REPLIES... I WILL SELL THESE CUE STICKS EVERYWHERE I CAN FIND TO DO SO!

Email 7: Your email address has now been blocked AND YOU WILL BE REPORTED!!!!!!

Email 8: YOU DON'T KNOW SHIT

Email 9: YOU ARE JUST PLAIN STUPID!!!

Email 10: YOU ARE JUST PLAIN STUPID!!!

Email 11: HA HA HA HA HA ~

Email 12: YOUR BLOCKED......... DUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Email 13: HOW DO YOU LIKE IT?????????????

Wonder if he has a chemical imbalance....

So of course after his barrage of emails, I went back and flagged his postings... Anyone else feel free.

Worse than anything, this guy is preying on the newer players, the ones that are to help grow this hobby/game..... Doesn't look too positive to me.

Anyone around Seattle know this guy?

People like you are one of the many reasons this list is so valuable. I applaud your commitment to integrity.
 
I sent him email also :)

Hi.. this looks like a real nice cue. I like the designs. I’m learning how to play pool and I would like to have my very own stick! Is it a Quetec cue? Can you adjust the weight? I had a cue where you put metal rings between the joints to make it heavier, I once had it up to 27ounces. But I lost it in a bet! Me and a guy in a bar played a game of 8 ball and he ran out the table! I don’t see that happen much.

That looks like a swell cue! Looks nicer than my friend’s Quetec cue. It must be really good if it’s worth over $500! I paid $80 for my cue before I lost it in the bet! You said to make you an offer…. Hmmm would $450 be in your range?
 
"It's an extremely fancy high quality beautiful unique" <---This right here makes me want to buy this cue.

"If you want a really super awesome and unique cue stick that not only plays as a professional cue stick, but you'll also get lots of attention with this cue stick!" <--- Oh...I'm sold!!!

I'm going to inquire about this super duper awesomesauce cue.

Here is my Email to this man...


Hi there,



I'm very intrested in your cue for sale on craiglist http://seattle.craigslist.org/tac/spo/1510173066.html. I'm a bit worried though because i'm a left handed player and there are not very many left handed pool sticks out there. So I was wondering if this was a left or right handed pool stick. Also could you send me a picture of the clear see threw case? I didn't seem to see a picture of that on there, i'd love to see it.



Thanks man!
