I don’t know if it is the cue design or the cue maker.Not like they did.
but I’m early $, still doing just fine
Personally, I’ve never lost money selling a pool cue.
In fact, a couple of times I made a profit & that helped
pay for the next cue I was getting that simply cost more.
If you buy smart, i.e., highly reputable cue makers, your cue
purchase(s) should retain their value & some can appreciate.
