ibuycues said:Hey Marcus,
You are right, I had to get in this one.
Sorry Ken and Bill, please be patient with me but I have to feed my box cue fever. You both are very aware of my fondness for these.
Ken, if you are talking about the box cue Szamboti that you sent me photos of several years ago, let me know. I might be able to resurrect the pictures (not sure).
Fatboy, with the comments by Ken and Bill, I know you are stand-up. Sorry about the earlier jab.

Nice to meet you. I'm glad I was sort of following this thread. You sound like you've actually been learning some life lessons. I don't have much natural ability but have always loved and appreciated the game.Fatboy said:no worries, the are alot of air barrel people in this world and i understand completely, and didnt take offence to anyone here, i just want to be everyones friend, i keep the net a happy place, i have only once in 10 years of message boards got into a argument, and that will be my last. I dont like it when someone attacks another mans means of earing an honest living, and what iiI do is honest, i had problems with it 10 years ago and got in some trouble but corrected things and have had the same gig for 11 years, this guy decided to put all sorts of bad stuff about me on a message boad not knowing the facts, the mods booted him and took down the B.S.. so like I said I keep it happy and completely understand people not believing what i said because i have to hide behind a screen name, i awalys will here-to many sharp guys with bad intentions, on other forums with squares my name and city i live in is my handle, overtime when i know everyone better i'll email links to back up what i'm saying now. i'm 100% honest on boards too, never exaggerate anything, i have nice cars and a small....no shame its just the way i am, back in the day i wasnt the most honest guy i couldnt be i had to do what i had to do ,now i either dont say a word or i tell the truth, as you get to know me you'll like me, i'm nice but not soft when it comes to my $$$ sometimes i'll take the worst of it for my own personal reasons other timews i'll pass on something for what ever reason, growing up with nothing and grinding it out for years has taught me alot,
just telling everyone here a bit about me, i noticed this forum is alot of comments but not alot of relationships here, unlike most forums, its all good, i just want to be respected, believed, i'm not a one upper, i dont care what some one makes as long as they are happy, i hate to see people suffer-unless they bring it on themselfs, so now you know Fatboy a bit better, btw i weight 250 now because of back problems i'm just over 6'1" and usually weigh 235-240 so i'm not that fat, just an old name in the pool room from 20 years ago, i'm 40.
good day guys.

fromthebeginnin said:This will be an interesting auction not sure it will go to a dealer, with the rarity of Gus Cues of this quality out there for sale most collectors know the mark up from brokers so there may be some people on the side line. Remember this isnt a lot money for high end collectors.
I have heard of Balabushka's going from private collection to private collection for $100k and Gus cues approaching that as well.
classiccues said:Will,
Good luck, and I hope you get it.

Must be very serious seeing as how he upped his bid this morning.TheMarsMan said:Up to over 40K now, I think the current bidder is pretty serious about the cue.
