In this economy with everyone living paycheck to paycheck. When you order a cue and give up front money, does it ever enter your mind that any little offset in this persons life could send your order into the void? We are talking hobbyists, guys with little business experience, etc...
I mean really, you want to get your house painted and the painter is a recovering crack addict, and you feel bad for him, or his price is cheap, and you give him some start money... are you going to be surprised when he doesn't show up? Or needs more money to start because he just freebased your remaining deposit?
Again, I am not sticking up for Dave but when someone gives Eddie Wheat, Eason, or whomever money up front for a cue and the guy has made 2 cues publically, WTF are you thinking? and why are you surprised when it happens?
You guys are like the chicks with low cut dressed going through a prison yard.. just asking for it.
JV (---just wondering why people do this....
ps: I have had a run in with Sutton, and I hope whatever it is, is fixable.., if not, well so be it.
