Hi Cheese;
#1: This thread was written tongue-in-cheek, however, it really is frustrating, after requesting NO TRADE OFFERS PLEASE to have to answer close to a dozen TRADE OFFERS that are pm'ed every time your cue is bumped to page 1.
#2: Even though this issue truly is a pain-in-the behind, I hope you will appreciate that I tried to make the point in a humerous way e.g. "gonna hunt you down with a machete." :grin-square:
Is it not okay to ask and expect potential buyers to abide by the terms you set in your sale?
I surely did not mean to offend anyone.
Above all else, hang on to your sense of humor.

So....can we work a trade for your TS cue, then?
:thumbup:
Best of luck on the SALE of your cue, sir. Looks like a sharp player.
Take care.

Man do you consider to trade the machete, I have a ebony on ebony JF era Southwest + cash
Very funny man, I laughed my-behind-off :grin:
In the relatively short amount of time that I've been here selling some of my cues, I typically state "No Trade Offers Please".
What I mean when I say that is I am not interested in anyone offering one of their cues plus cash, minus cash, or even-up for the particular cue I'm selling.
I am so sure of myself when I specify "No Trade Offers Please" that it doesn't matter to me whether you have a broomstick or a Searing to trade, I am just not interested.
I have gone as far as posting this request in BOLD RED to make sure no one misses it yet I am still bombarded with the inevitable; "I know you said no trades but I was just wondering if....."
Wonder no more! If I state NO EFFING TRADES, then I beg you, please don't offer any.
In one of my recent very inexpensive cue listings I took it even one step further by saying "Anyone who offers a trade on this cue, I will hunt you down with a machete."
Consider yourselves on notice!
To comply with the forum rules, I am looking for a Tony Ryan extension if anyone happens to have one for sale. Yes, I know Seyberts has them for approx $33 new but still thought maybe I could find someone with an extra or otherwise unneeded one.
Thank you for your time.

I have one, got something to trade for it?
Just kidding!!
But I do understand your point. Although if someone did offer me a Searing for a case then I might have to make an exception.
If they wanted to ship some cash with it then I definitely would........
You can't regulate people's behavior Brian, it's just the way people are, kinda like a good woman thinks she can change a man you can't stop people from offering you what they think is the deal that will change your mind.
I like trading....my wife says to stop unless I want to start sleeping with the cues. She says the bank account needs to fill up and not the cue rack.
You're right, JB, not easy (possible) to change everyone.
And it looks like you're gonna have to put that nice Jensen you just acquired in a closet. Great buy by the way.
So, for anyone who thinks this thread was for naught, I ahve some great news.
I swear, I was pm's last night and am now the proud owner of a Tony Ryan extension for slightly less than one would have cost at Seybert.
And, I meant it sincerely when I said I sure didn't mean to offend anyone here. Just having a little fun.
All you traders, you're forgiven. :thumbup:

We all think the world would be a better place if everybody just thought like us. The problem with that is everybody thinks differently, so there you go.
Lately, I've been saying in my for sale threads (trying to be nice) that the only trades I can consider would be Szams, Ginas, TADs. Bushkas and Martins because those are the only cues I know the fair value on. So now what I get is trade offers involving cues I've never heard of where the trader has taken the time to educate me on the value of his product.
What I always say is, hey, PayPal me on my cues, I'll eat the fees, and that will give you 45 days interest free to see your items and pay the bill off. My cue is priced where for sure it will sell far within that time frame, just price yours accordingly and we'll have no problem. Seems logical to me, yet no trader has hopped up yet on that offer. Hmmmmmmmmmmm.
Thanks

That Jensen was bought for a friend. He wasn't online at the time or he would have bought it. I want it and would gladly trade him mine but somehow I don't think he will be too willing to give it up once he hits a ball with it.
