You want the truth. Cue is not cracked. Never was. Just wanted to give Nick a taste of his own medicine. He was the one who lied and told everyone that my cue was cracked and made it impossible for me to sell. He took something I said and twisted it to his advantage. And Eric, at least get your facts straight. It was never sat on. For all on AZ this is my last post on this cue or anything else that this POS says. Yes I am talking about you Nick, you back stabbing, 2 faced, lying POS. I was playing in a tournament one night and long story short, fell with my cue in hand. I caught myself on the steps that had been built at Grady's and were still out from a big table tournament that our own Gulyassy won. I heard the plywood creek under one of my hands. At the time, I thought Nick was a friend of mine. We talked occasionally. I called him and told him about what had happened. "Man, I sure was lucky I didn't crack or even snap my cue in half. I would have cried." Those we're my words to Nick. A few months later I have the opportunity to buy my old TS jump break back. Told Nick I was gonna buy it back from a mutual friend of ours. He tells me that the cue is warped, neither of the original shafts are with the cue and the only shaft that is with it is a warped Scruggs shaft. His words to me are "I wouldn't buy that cue if I were you." On his advice, I don't buy it. Well, 10 days later he posts pictures in the gallery of his Scruggs j/b that is mint with 2 shafts and in perfect condition. Was like, "We'll ain't that a bit*h. Dude lied to me and bought it himself." Just let it roll right off my back. Didn't think of it. Then I worked a deal out for a trade for his MC cue and I would add 2500. Deal was made. Next day they call me and tell me they were told that my cue was cracked. I say not true. I would even ship it to them for examination. It was denied as they put it, "Stay away from the rumor." Confirmed that Nick told him. Did this so Eric could get the MC cue for his collection. Then I decide to sell the cue. Then everyone that wanted my cue all of a sudden had no interest in it. Come to find out Nick was telling everyone that my cue was cracked. I thought he was a friend and instead he was a snake in the grass. Maybe I was the only one that he fuqed, but if he is like some others in his family, I won't be the last.
And Nick, I know you or your little butt buddies will say that I told him it was cracked. What possible reason would one have to lie about their own cue? To make it worth less? Maybe for a total D. A. like Nick, that might make sense. But to anyone else with 1/8 of a brain will realize that isn't something that would ever be said. But once this cue sells, you should give Larry 500 for the money you cost him by spreading the lies about the cue while I had it.
And Singer, karma smiles on me. It is intact. My new Black Boar proves it. Just keep screwing people like Nick. Keep selling you straight cues that are perfect except for the warp in the forearm. I know what your new name should be. The Oxymoron Cue Dealer. You motto could be " Where you buys straight warped cues. Satisfaction is something I could care less about."
Eric and Dean. I still hope that one day you realize what company you are in when around Nick and finally cut him loose. But I will close this by saying one thing.
The cue isn't cracked and will make someone a great player. Take care all.
