Mystick Cue Fan said:come on guys, lay off shorty. Who here has had a deal go sour with shorty? Who here has never ever posted their opinion about price on this forum? I've seen a couple of you slammig shorty slam other people about their asking price. I remember roscoe saying something sarchastic about how I always post about jack kompan. Here's a post he said about someone else's asking price.
I didn't even read the second post on down before I was laughing out loud... I saw that Searing on ebay and laughed that you paid almost $900 for a sneaky with rings, and it doesn't say Szamboti....
Then you come here trying to sell it to people that watch ebay daily anyways wanting to double your investment (which was too high anways). You got greedy. People busted you out. Now you are all defensive because you know that you are caught.
As far as what Shorty was selling, he marked it up around 15-20%, not 100%. Waaaaaaaaay different. And as far as your analogy on sitting in a store informing customers, that is just insane....
I don't have a problem with you, but this is just outlandish. As a matter of fact, a good friend of mine (and cue collector) talked to me about the auction you won. You overpaid for that cue in the first place.
Just my .02
This is a forum to post opinions too. I too don't like it when someone shits on my thread but I can't stop them. but Some of you have done it yourself and are now knocking on shorty. That wheelchair comment was below the belt Hal. I've seen nothing but good posts by you but that's a little personal. I can understand shorty's anger too. why would all of you gang up on him for him saying something about hal's asking price. Come on. Let him be. Especially after the very rude and outlandish comments that you guys say to him you don't expect him to get defensive and personal back with you guys. I have no problem with any of you. But quit ganging up on the short guy. I've have heard nothing but good things about him, and I personally have had deals go smooth and quickly with shorty. As I'm sure everyone else has. He can't carry all of you so get off his back.

I with ya here mystick cue fan.leave the guy alone.This board is getting pretty bad with all the drama on here it's like a soap opera.I try to watch what I post now to make sure I don't piss any one off.I have gotten a few people mad.This crap is realy taking the fun out of this forum real fast.When I joined I thought this forum was the best thing.Starting to change my mind ,maybe people should go play some more pool and chill out a bit.I am buds with shorty to. I talk to him almost every day on aim and value the guy as a good freind and he has done some awsome trades with me noing that he was on the short end of the stick.Shorty has not posted any think different than what any one else has posted, but I guess it's always fun to pick on a little guy.Maybe it makes some people feel tough.This is all I have to say.
