A peice a couple weeks ago sold for 70 something
Seyberts has the stuff at 25 CLAMS a CUBE!
And Get This....It's smaller too!
That's right....at $70-75 per cube it absolutely nothing but snobbery appeal....and the chalk is probably 15% SMALLER THAN A NORMAL SIZE PIECE OF POOL CHALK!....This chalk had better only require chalking you cue once a day because it's absurd....freakin' Blue Diamond is bad enuff but it's worth paying for....I got a carton of 25 boxes on e-Bay form some guy in Mexico for $70 shipped....there's some deals to be made...what's a good deal on Kamui...say....$50 a cube....maybe $40 a cube?????? I don't think so......it's got to be so overoriced that you start to imagine there must be something really special becuase how else could they sell it for so much....yeah...like what....200 cubes per year which is equivalent to four cartons of blue diamond that I bought.....so if I paid $70...then $70 x 4 = $280 for 200 pieces of Blue Diamond chalk vs.....$14,000 for 200 pieces of Kamui chalk.....now you go figure that one out vs.just speniding $.35-.50 per cube for master chalk..... KAMUI IS A BUNCH OF PHOOEY!"

Have you even tried the Kamui Chalk??
i understand that the Kamui chalk is really good but the price does seem to be a bit outrageous. If you chalked with masters on every shot you should not miscue. A former pro claims he can do more with the cue ball with Kamui but for the average guy i just can't see paying that much for 1 piece of chalk.
But i will never knock what someone does with their money.
We all have different priorities and if Kamui is your then go for it.
Don't forget W.C. Fields, "One is born every minute."
No, and I haven't tried crack either.
I've tried crack and it makes me nervous and want to shoot too quick.
Kamui chalk on the other hand at least doesn't seem to hurt my game.
lol! Good analogy and fitting... I use a Kamui Black medium tip and master chalk and do very very well. Don't miscue.
If people are crazy enough to pay this much for one piece of chalk that has no collectibility value (such as being used by Mosconi to win a world championship, made 200 years ago etc...), donate that money to a children's hospital or something. People are just plain stupid these days.....
What if a cube of Kamui lasted 50 times longer than a cube of pre-flag master chalk....if that was the case....and if...while lasting so much longer...it actually gave a superior friction to the tip...and didn't flake and mess the table and cue shaft......would they still be stupid for using it ?
Well, does it?
of course not. But does it?
