Here's what I will say about Roy, not a knock nor a defense just my personal experience. I have never delt with him through email, only over the phone and in person and the last time was probably 6 or 7 years ago. Living relatively close I would call him and set up an appointment to stop by. The first deal was I bought a Richard Harris sneaky pete from him brand new at a very reasonable price, well under what they are listed for on here. The second time I traded a cue plus cash for another cue and took the worst of it, not really a big deal because I didn't have to do it. Third time I bought nothing but he did give me several cases to take because I said I could probably sell them. He needed X amount of dollars and said keep whatever you get over that. I sold them, gave him the money and kept the rest. The fourth time was a bit tricky. A friend of mine wanted a cue he had and was quoted a price and when I picked the cue up it was a different price. Eventually I ended up with the cue and when I went to sell it several of the top dealers said there was no way one of the shafts was original to the cue. I ended up trading it and coming out far ahead so lesson learned but no big deal in the end. There has been numerous stories about Roys antics through email but I would venture to say he would never say any of those things in person, for obvious reasons.
