**UPDATED LIST**

Still have a few cues left - if interested, PM me and I'll send an email containing detailed pics and specs (where available), of cues you are interested in. I changed the prices on some of these, so go by these, not the other post or the emails.

*NOTE:Prices include USPS priority shipping/insurance and Paypal fees. I only ship to the continental U.S. unless I have dealt with you before, and no 1-piece cues shipped outside of the U.S. Thanks!

  • (2) $1,050 - Rauenzahn Titlist conversion (1940's) with ivory joint, 3/8x10 pin, mop slotted diamonds and maple windows, ivory Hoppe ring, 1 shaft.
  • (5) Just refinished $800 - Hoppe Pro - early 40's brown wood, ivory ring, RARE SHIELD STAMP. Gorgeous example of one of the first Hoppe Pros ever made - figured maple (not straight-grain!). Forearm and leather grip refinished (Still original grip) - butt-sleeve left with original finish and a very nice 1st-series decal. Refinished using Danish oil and hand-rubbed French polish - I had no idea that the wood and leather would come out so nice on this cue, but it is really gorgeous and the cue is incredibly rare with the shield stamp.
  • (6) $650 - Hoppe Pro - 1950's dark brown wood, amazing original condition with super-bright veneers. This is the nicest-condition Hoppe Pro I've ever seen.
  • (8) Just refinished$370 - Hoppe Pro 1950's conversion - dark brown wood, just refinished (entire cue, kept original leather grip). Converter unknown, bought in NYC in the early 1960's, new shaft made around 1980, white plastic butt-cap but original white cue-ball buttcap comes with it (probably bake-lite). Black stain below collar on one side of forearm. Refinished using Danish oil and hand-rubbed French polish.
  • (13) $360 - Carom King - very rare 4-veneer pre-Titlist from 1940. GREAT points and very nice veneers, 15 oz stamp. Rough but legible decal. No ferrule.
  • (16) $600 - Model 26 1/2 conversion - probably cherry wood, highly-figured birdseye forearm, no wrap or collar, inverted joint, only black phenolic buttcap. Burton Spain shaft with original ferrule (1 nick) and birdseye in shaft, pin in shaft. ...Or $370 for the butt or $260 for the Spain shaft.
  • (18) $480 - Model 26 1/2 1-piece dark brown-black wood, no grip, refinished, beautiful. I thought this was ebony, but I'm told it might be African Blackwood. Points are very long and undamaged, but veneers are not real bright.
  • (19) $80 - Model 26 1/2 1-piece with wrap lathed, but missing the wrap - "place-holder" with repairs. Refinished using Danish oil - no polish.
  • (24) $400 - OAK TITLIST 1-piece from 1940's. Lightly refinished to get rid of old varnish and show oak color. One point is missing just a touch, but would lathe down fine.
  • (26) $100 - 'By George' leather 1x1 ostritch print case in fantastic shape - pouch, handle, no strap.

I'm 99% sure I'll take 10 off your hands for your asking price. My hotmail is giving me trouble as far as sending you an email. So I only got to see the pics for a second. Check your PM please as I had a couple of small questions for you. Thanks for responding so fast.
 
Thanks! Will ship tomorrow.

Great, now people are sending me their extra PMS :(

Pics sent to all who asked. I am literally scheduling these on ebay as time permits, using the automatic scheduler - very cool.

Scott <=== was on the receiving end of two wives' PMS
 
Bump - new cues added (see bottom of list).

Many of above cues headed to ebay today for cheap-listing day. Thanks.
 
Keyword Spamming

Bump.

I got a kick out of this - apparently someone from one of the forums 'turned me in' to ebay for a listing violation. This one should give some of you a good laugh, especially considering all the REAL keyword spamming that is rampant on ebay. It's really kind of weird to have so many enemies in a virtual internet world - people you will never meet, never shake their hands, never even talk with. Very odd, but the price of candor, honesty, and mistakes. No biggie - here's your daily ebay laugh:

Dear runscott,

You recently listed the following auction-style listing:

250119594337 - Model 26 1/2 1920s-30s Pool Cue like Titlist - ebony


The listing was removed because it violated the eBay Keyword Spamming policy. The violation occurred when you included the following information in your listing:

in title: like Titlist - ebony!
in description: I always thought it was ebony
very nice with even longer points than the Titlists
