There is a Dave Jones cue listed on Ebay. I bid on and was the successful bidder on this cue when it was originally listed about 3 weeks ago. The cue was being sold by an "ISoldIt" franchise in Tucson, Arizona. I had heard nice things about Dave Jones cues but am very cautious regarding Ebay purchases but since I live not too far from Tucson, I knew that I would be able to look at the cue before actually putting out the $$$.

With cash in hand, I drove to Tucson to pick up the cue. After taking a look at the cue, and noting several discrepancies between the Ebay description and the actual condition of the cue-I elected to not purchase the cue.

Please PM me Before bidding on or sending payment on this cue.

Listen, listen!!! - you need to be a little more diplomatic!!!

I wouldn't quite call it a hunk of crap ... but - I would say that a $$$ investment would be required to bring this cue up to the standards that most AZB posters would find acceptable.

The cue has "issues" and as long as the new owners eyes are open - it would be a fun project.

Caveat Emptor - Let The Buyer Beware!!
 
translation: the individual that was the original owner of this cue preferred 80 grit to a damp paper towel and used this cue for jousting in his off time. In no way does this reflect the quality of Dave's work.
 
Holy Sheeeet Ross!

Chill out dude!!

I could have said it looked like someone glued left over upholstery material on the handle as a wrap, or even that the shaft really looked kinda sorta cool with that blue crayola on it, but - why downchat the auction ??

If someone can buy that cue for $200 and just plan on having a new shaft made and a re-wrap done, it could well turn out to be a nice cue.

Dave Jones cues have a great rep and I was dissapointed that it was not in better conditon.
 
I own and shoot with a Dave Jones custom cue. His work is exemplary. In fact, I have two more of his cues on order... a matched set.

I rarely use Ebay (except for golf stuff) and if I had not heard great things about his cues, I would have had ZERO interest in the auction. I genuinely was dissapointed at the condition. If another Dave Jones cue comes along, and I can buy it from a reputable seller - I'll be laying down some cash money.
