So you didn't give Dale Perry an opportunity to fix the cue, and or address the situation?
I'm surprised at how cleanly that cue broke.
I was hoping that you were joking, but I see that you were not.
The cue cost me a little over $100. I trashed the cue butt and sold the shaft for $30 or $40, IIRC. I wasn't going to waste more money sending firewood back to the maker.
The was not centered during the final turn, joint pin, and collar install. You could see the forearm offset in the joint. It was terrible. Absolutely crap. It didn't help that the entire cue was pretty much hollow.
What are you insinuating about how it broke?...
Edit -


The thickness of the threads were the only part connecting the buttsleeve to the handle. That's pretty shoddy craftsmanship too me. The photo on the left is the handle and the photo on the right is the butt sleeve. You can see the bolt in the butt sleeve, so why is the handle threaded so deep? It's essentially a cored cue with a core.
