How much did that sell for so the community has a better idea for what high end cues are bringing? I would like to compare to my Szamboti to learn more about the value. Thanks

Logdog, sorry i can't give you a clear answer. but after 7 years renting, house we were renting has sold. so in the process i've sold quite a few cues w/ partial trades, such as this one. so i don't have a clear answer. we are looking at a home today, to make a cash offer. i've moved 3 Gus's, 1 Barry, Schick, Showman, Ed Young, Schon block cue, Schon LTD, many shafts, etc. listing more also. Logdog, if you bring your Gus to Derby City Classic, i might be able to sell it for you. or sooner on consignment. i have a buyer, who might be interested. regards, don AKA Sureman Cues

What amount is your buyer willing to pay?

Well you know what you're into your Szamboti for so price it accordingly. This particular cue being rosewood on rosewood would not be a good comparison on a standard birdseye prong Szamboti.

Logdog, how can i know what someone is going to give for your cue w/o seeing it, examining it. etc. etc. all i know is he has a pretty large collection of cues. Gus's is his favorite. regards, don
