Just got this from Joe Barringer:
Cue Components
February 12, 2014 SPECIAL ISSUE
Important announcement
This is mainly for our Cue Maker friends and those of you with Ivory cues:
Well, they did it! A new law for a ban on commercial trade of elephant ivory!
Press release:
"Today we are also announcing a ban on the commercial trade of elephant ivory"
Here's the news:
White House Fact Sheet - 2/11/14
http://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press...y-combating-wildlife-trafficking-commercial-b
Well, it's been real gang but it sure does look like they mean business. This may put the kibosh on all ivory products except antique ivory. According to this document, you cannot sell anything containing ivory between states. So, if you have an ivory pool cue in Florida it has to remain in Florida, forever! You can sell pre ban ivory within each state and that's it. In-other-words you can buy & sell within your own state as long as it is pre ban (June 1989) Ivory.
We'll have a regular newsletter with many specials in a few days so stay tuned.
Thank you for your time.
Kind regards,
Joe Barringer
