This reminds me of the companies that insist on credit, they make a lot of small orders, pay them on time, then you extend them more credit and they start paying slower, then the keep increasing the orders until you are so far stuck you can't cut them off for fear that they will stiff you for the outstanding debt. And what happens.......they stiff you anyway.
When I sold Instroke we probably had better than $30,000 in money owed that I will never see. In 1997 we almost went bankrupt when we had people owing us nearly $100,000.
Falcon Cues asked me for help to get their money from a customer in Germany that stiffed them for $25,000 with this increasing credit scam. We couldn't help them, the customer had disappeared.
These things always end with a major airbarrel and it sucks.
If I bought cues on here I think I'd INSIST on Escrow and make the SELLER pay for it. I know that my MONEY is legal tender but there is no telling if the cue is a phantom or is not as advertised.
