as everybody on here knows, i am really cue stupid when it comes to collector cue prices. here is my question.

I have been actively looking for either a used Paul Mottey or a Tim Scruggs cue for awhile. Nothing fancy. Maybe just a 4 point cue with maybe some rings and veneers. Can someone please tell me how much i should expect to pay. I am thinking of trading a couple of cues as part of the deal. One of the cues would be a BCM rosewood plain jane with rings at all positions and a Joss cue that i just picked up. This particular model was made for the Joss tour exclusively and is engraved northeast joss tour stop 11, 2002-2003. It has 6 ebony points with veneers. 3 high and 3 low and has some (what i believe to be ) mother of pearl inlays in both the points and the ebony butt handle. It also has what i would call holly squigley inlays also in the butt. At the time Joss advertised the retail price of these cues somewhere between $1,000-1,200. I am not stupid enough to know that i am not going to get anywhere near that price. i will try to post pictures as soon as i can.. Unfortunately my camera is broke or i would post some pictures..................thanks for taking the time to read this for me. Any info would be greatly appreciated......................mike
 
this must have been a very stupid question to ask. It has received 45 views and no responses. Oh well i tried...........mike
 
Not a Very stupid question, but, if you use the search button for Scruggs or Mottey in the for sale section you will get an idea of what you'll pay.
 
i would think you would have to pay around $1000 for a used 4 point Mottey or Scruggs with 2 shafts.

Adding ringwork and/or veneers you better add another 800-1000 dollars to masonh's 1000.

He wants trim rings and veneers on his cue and I don't think you'll find any for $1000!
