Custom Sneaky Pete's

I just received my cue today from Brian or "BHC Cues" after deadline of two weeks, well it is 3 months later actually. It is HANDS DOWN the WORST piece of firewood I have ever seen from a "custom cue maker".
He states "I don't issue any refunds on cues just can't" and furthermore states "doesn't matter I'm done on azbilliards and already have red rep" after I have VERY NICELY asked for my money back, considering the circumstances....
COMPLETE WASTE OF SPACE AND HAS ABSOLUTELY ZERO RIGHT TO CALL HIMSELF A CUSTOM CUE MAKER....

I did receive it Brian.
I've had family over for Father's Day. What happened to the plan we had on building it? This thing is pretty much not good at all to be honest and being VERY polite.
1. It's WAY to fat in the butt end and horribly tapered.
2. The cue isn't finished whatsoever which we said tung oil or standard finish whichever was easier and it feels so rough I could get a splinter.
3. The shaft is not a straight taper and too thin per our discussion. It's pretty much a pro taper for a break/jump.
4. The shaft was supposed to be Purpleheart for which you stated you were waiting for on back order or something from cue components (I know they had them btw, they are not far from me locally).
5. The joints were supposed to be black and their white at the shaft/jump handle. However the jump handle and butt are black joints. The butt cap is black but very rough and not even close to finished.
6. It was supposed to have no tip and it has some weird phenolic looking tip/ferrule combo that I can't just change.
7. I can't even get the shaft on it without extreme muscle.
8. When I try it makes horrible squeaking while trying. I actually tried once but stopped because I thought it was going to wake up my sleeping daughter during her nap.
9. The jump handle has a bad roll in it.
10. The shaft is very warped.
All in all, this has been a horrible waste of time. I'm really sorry I thought I would give this idea a shot. I'd be embarrassed to even leave the house with it.

Not the only. There's a few more. They were scared sure to add there's.
Damn auto-correct, bhc custom cues, i changed that quickly... Sorry for the confusion...
Do you have a band saw or a table saw? I'm not joking either.
I'm sorry you got hosed on this deal and that you had to be the one to take a bad cue to expose this guy. I hope you get your money back, but I wouldn't hold my breath. Cut it up in 2 inch pieces and send it back to him.
What is his real name and where does he live? Not his address.....just his state and general location.

Very under the radar huh? I believe Pittsburg area.
It's $100 deposit. Who cares. Life lesson #2,483,590
Don't deal with idiots. EVER.
I love his recognition of his bad rep and gave up already after JUST bad rep no negative iTrader. Lol. Not now, it's not good at all.
That email belongs to someone that was banned on here not that long ago. His Facebook page was posted and so was his address. He has ripped many people off. Man I can't think of his old username......it might be his email address....I think it was.
I'm not sure "brutal" describes that...ummmm....cue? You know you have problems when someone sells you a brand new cue and says "it's not that bad" 
Sorry you got hosed on that one Bill, can you do a paypal dispute?
