I'm the kind of person who will help someone in the store by getting them the item they want from the shelf they can't reach. I suppose I could let them wait for an employee to help them, but that's just not me. It doesn't cost me anything to do that, and that's the point. You can just do a good deed for someone. What do I get out of it? The thanks from the person I've helped & the knowledge that I can still act the way my parents raised me to.
So what if a good deed doesn't cost you anything? If it helps somebody out & makes them happy that in itself is worth its weight in gold. I was always told that it's the thought that counts! I just wish we could all do it more often!
Exactly chilli66. I pulled a very nice Joss out of the trash once too as the player snapped the butt over his knee after a set with Brady at Mother's. Installed new handle wood and new linen wrap and the cue was like new.
Realizm is hung up on me giving away a new cue I made...well I guess he doesn't read or search. In the past year I've given away TWO new ones to lucky AZ members...one to Bnall and another to Inzombiac. The free cues were just a j/b and a hustler...but both men have since ordered very nice cues from me.


Bnall...your ebony/bem widow isn't even close yet.
