noooo.. actually.... kinda got lucky and un lucky at the same time... i was at valley forge, brought my shaft to a cue guy, cause i couldnt tell if there was a crack or a scratch in the ferrule,and since predator was there everything was under warranty and i wanted it repaired before i sold it... figures, they switched my shaft with someone elses, so they had to buy me a new one, and put on a brand new moori..
