Since this is about buying a cue as well i am posting this here sorry.
I hesitate to post this, and only am at the advice of about 7 others i have shared this story with.
I have been MORE than patient and just cannot get a response and a FIRM date so i have resorted to this.
HERE GOES
I started a thread in June 07, and said i was looking for an ebony cuehttp://forums.azbilliards.com/showthread.php?t=66655.
Varney sent me a pm and said he could make me what i wanted which was an ebony sneaky with an IVORY joint 57 1/2 inches for 450. I told him that was more than i wanted to spend and didnt really want to wait as i had a child coming soon and was going to quit playing after she was born then anyway. He then replied back that he would do it for 400 and already had a blank ready someone cancelled and instead of 90 days like normal it would only be 60 days
I said cool that sounds good whats next. He said the sooner you paypal me the sooner i can get it done. So i sent him the money that day. A few days later i checked back and gave him all my specs and he replied back and said, no problem but you do know i dont use REAL IVORY on my cues . I said fine because the price seemed reasonable anyway and i was excited to try out the cue.
Since june 29th he has promised me 8 diferent delivery times. I have pm'd him about thosands of times and he wouldnt answer then i would get from him " its all down hill from here". First it was sorry its late you will have it by October, then For sure by december. I told him i wanted to use it at the derby and he said no problem last week of December . Then he said late January, then he said March. Then i didn;t hear from him for awhile and started posting about here in some threads and he told me that wont get my cue any faster lol. This is the last exchange on June 4th..................
MY PM SENT TO HIM ON MAY 10TH
Mr. Varney,
Give me a break, i have asked you 6 times for a date and can n ot get one. I just talked to cajunbarboxplayer and he told me he ORDERED his cue in December and he has got it already. I understand if he is your buddy thats cool but , I ordered mine in JUNE and you said it would only be 60 days (yes 60) because you had a blank done already. Well it is May and i have had no communication since FEB. This is unexceptable. I have not started a thread and have only posted my experience in them about the communication which you obviously ignore. I told you before i order tons of cues from prolific makers and this is an utter disgrace on your end. If you ****ed up just tell me. If not i expect an answer and a FIRM date of delivery. I dont want it rushed and am trying not to be a dick but its ridiculous
KV RESPONDSKV>>>>>
I apologize sir. I will indeed have yours complete....unrushed....by the end of the month.
KV
ME AGAIN>>>>>>>>>>>
Well the end of May has come and gone ( whoooooooosh) any idea on when the next estimated time of arrival will be? Do i owe you anymore money? Thanks for keeping me updated
KV RESPONDS AGAIN>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Yours is very near complete....I just have 5-6 more that are ahead of you. You know how upset people get when they think I'm working out of line.
Thanks
KV
That is the where i stand now NO CUE and havent really said a word. I hear these people on here complain about 9 months when he told then 90 days well how do you like this..............
With that said i have a few questions for KV i demand an answer for. As many of my friends here know i have the good fortune to be married to a lawyer and she hates pool but is not happy about this and thinks i should pursue legal action.
I have told her of the close knit community here and that it would work out,, well that was 6 months ago
Now for my questions to KV
How on earth to you think this is exceptable?
Why would you tell me 60 days and then it be almost a YEAR and i still have no cue?
How can at least 10 people on here who ordered a cue after me get theirs already and why?
What is the f$%^%ing date i am getting my cue?
Did you mess it up? and if you did why did you not tell me it would be longer?
Do you think i am out of line by being upset? because you act like you do in the forums
If anyone else has any other questions please feel free to ask, I really want to hear the response.
And if any of his BUDDIES chime in i might just go APES$$T becasue i am not in the mood to be told "i am a hater" or " give the guy a break" It is way past that point for me
Sorry its so long i am very angry and thought everyone should know.
