Help Identify a Palmer

[rwomel]

Hello to All

I am getting ready to sell a few cues before going to DCC in January 2007.
I have this Palmer cue which I haven't been able to identify and would like some help from the forum.

Yes, the cue is for sale, once I get a handle on it's approx value.

Merry Christmas to All

Thanks

It is an Blue dot logo Palmer from around the turn of the century.
2000 that is. It is an import not an original Palmer. The blue dot was the last logo that Palmer used before they cease using a logo.
Here are some of the others in that series. I hope you were not planning on getting any more than $100.

isn't this the second time you've posted this same cue? the import palmers are not collectible cues.

This is the second time you have post this!!! The cue is made in China, wholesale it may be worth $20, retail maybe $45.

The cue is not rare, the cue is not collect-able, what else do you need to know.

It is ok for a beginner, it shares nothing with a Palmer cue except the name.

Have a nice night

Manwon, you are wrong. Wholesale the cue was $62, retail it was about $150 to $175. that one is not decal it IS inlay. Used it might if you are lucky fetch $100 You are correct it is an imported cue. it is not a collectible. PLEASE if you are going to state prices get them right or ask me. HAVE A NICE NIGHT . By the way what is it you have against the Chineese? They really do make some pretty decent cues. As you know they also cook up some pretty good rice. When ever you are ready to try some of the cues. Please let me know.

I only have one question? Do you work for HARD TIMES Billiards Pro-shop the supplier of the Palmer import cues that you sell.

I do not have a thing against the people, I have been married to a Chinese / Korean woman for 20 year's, I love the food, I love the life style, and I love the culture.

My entire problem with the Asian import cues it that in many cases they are misrepresented, by sellers who may not know what they have like the gentleman who made this post, and by sellers who intentionally misrepresent these item's to take advantage of the uneducated buyer.

If they are advertised for what they are, and priced and sold according to what they are, I have know problem with these or any other import cues.

I sell Asian import cues in my retail store, however, I let the customers know what they buying, and that for the same price they can buy a McDermott that has a Life Time Guaranty against all manufactures defects including shaft warp-age.

Last time I checked there are no Asian import cues that offer this guaranty, and why? Because the materials and the adhesives are lower quality and they will not last long term.

But, what the heck, enough of this, I wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year.

By the Way I really do smell rice cooking every day!!!!!
