I'd like to suggest that forum memebrs keep their offers for a seller's cue private and present any offers via a PM message. This Joss west is phenominal and it's worth a lot more than what 's been offered in the postings I've read. Don't perster a seller of a high end cue with absurd offers but if you are inclined to do so, it's best handled in the privacy of PM exchanges.
This seller is a stand-up, honest as the day is long guy....you can trust him and anyone that knows anything about Bill Stroud cues will tell you to add a grand to your offer and be prepared to add even more....this cue stands out in a crowd and it isn't a run of the mill Joss West....as if there was any such animal but hopefully you catch my drift.
