Kevin Carson Cue
- Thread starter Shorty
- Start date
My 2 cents . . .
I also bought a cue from Kevin about the same time as Shorty. It was the same price range and mine also had a problem. One of the points is spaced incorrectly - the indexing must have been off when the point was cut. The cue hit decent so I decided to keep it. NOW, I'm glad I didn't try to trade it back or I would probably be in the same boat.
I tried calling the phone number Chad had and it has been disconnected. Flown the coop, I assume.
Anyone want to buy a "unique", "custom-made" cue??? I'm taking offers.

Just to bump this thread to the top...
He has a new phone number...I called it, 330 432 3735, and left him a messege to call me on my cell. It seems that this is not even his phone number, some guy named Dennis or Denny. Another AZ member helped me track down this number and he actually got to speak with him! Amazing...everyone can talk to this guy but me? Geez!
And thanks ScottR...I think you helped me out a little bit regardless. I am offering the cue up to trade to a nice gentleman as we speak.
And by the way Kevin, I don't go away easily...even for a midget!

You are welcome. Do you think "Kevin" might have mentioned that the cue he sold to me had points that were off by about 1/8". I'm not talking the tips of the points, the friggin' base of the points at the wrap. That's a new one on me. Drivermaker - no comments from you about "garage-based CUSTOM cue makers......Shorty said:
.Two points were spaced 3/16", one was 5/16" and the other was . . . . . . oh, I don't know . . . . . about a half a freakin' inch.
~off my soapbox now~
Go get 'em Shorty . . . .
You are ready to accept the story on face value and I bet repeat it without any more information then that provided by a disgruntled customer who may even be exaggerating.[/QUOTE]
Wow! You must think you really know me. BTW, Shorty has been
on here for some time and seems like a straight shooter.

In Shorty's defense
I called this guy Carson and inquired if he has any cues for sale. He told me he was out of the cue making business!!
I then asked if it was true that a man from Florida had sent back a cue and he owed him money for the return. He stated that he did but didn't have any money, and he had resold the cue.
He also gave me a new phone # for Shorty to call him. That # may be a phoney # as it goes to someone else.
ScottR on this board also purchased a Carson cue, that he was unhappy with. As a gesture of goodwill he sent Shorty that cue in a case that Shorty purchased from him. This was done in an attempt for Shorty to recoup some of his lost monies.
2 stand up guys that got screwed, working together to recover some $$$, and 2 seperate cues.
Everyone on this board needs to call this Carson guy and bust his chops to recover Shorty's money. the correct # is posted in Shorty's earlier post.
