I have $1600 in my personalized Balabushka copy by Jerry Rauenzahn. Actually $1640 since I paid $40 for a Brunswick KU bumper and sent it to Jerry to use. Hit like a dream though.

A warped chinese made McDermott. Hits great and it's my break cue too, so the BK2 is going, as is the 2x4 case. Need to figure out a way of jumping with it also. I've swapped shafts and butts about with an identical cue I bought earlier, so total cost to me has been $15.
I have expensive cues, but am in the process of selling them. I am of the opinion higher end customs are better for looking at than playing with.
Paid $550 for my Pechauer. It's a little ugly to my eyes, but it hits awesome and I got it for about 50% retail. Couldn't pass that up. Paid something like $200 for a Lucasi (my first decent cue) and later put a Samsara tip on it for breaking/jumping.
Paid $120 for my original Joss, back in 1983. I LOVE this cue! Had it refinished by Bill Stroud in the late 90's. Still play with it at least once a week.
$450~ for my schon which is going to end up being my break cue here soon, not a single one of those production line break cues can even touch it in terms of how it breaks. Probably going to get another schon for a shooting cue soon.
