Since when is this acceptable ???

I have not. Sounds a bit fishy. Is the solicitor reputable? Could it be a conversation forgotten? Like "if you come across let me know" kinda things?
 
Yes just got one from some guy thats wants 425$ for some mezz cue and he has 21 posts total all selling some mezz or lambros product. Not really sure why he thinks Id be interested but I offered him 25$ since he wanted to sell it to me so badly.

I got one last week about a case for sale.....not gonna mention any names, but it was a very reputable member.

I also got one a couple of weeks ago from someone trying to sell me instructional DVD's.
I never sent either of these people messages first inquiring about anything they had for sale.
 
I have received them in the past, but it was a while ago now. Usually it was a member who knew I liked a particular style of cue, and wanted to offer before posting publicly. They were respectful, and as a result, I had no issue with it. But I certainly would not wish to be inundated with unsolicited offers via PM.

I have got unsolicited PM's from people because they have something they know I might be interested in.
I would say that a random broadcast PM to multiple AZ's would be crossing the line.

I got the same offer.
AZB spam? Really?

9ballrack this is his screen name. Maybe the mods can stop this before it gets out of hand.

Let's be clear about who it wasn't - wasn't me I don't send pms offering items for sale unless I know FOR sure the other side wants a head-up on something I have and even then it's not likely.
 
I have showed no interest in purchasing any mezz products let alone break cues recently or at any time that I can recall...

I have gotten two or three offers about people seeing that I was interested in something and they had something similar for less but thats solicated I asked pretty much to be notified by posting my interest. However, as far as spending 425$ on a break cue that Im not remotely interested in... not going to happen. I am curious as to where it came from though.

Hell if you offered to make a case for me Id be honored more than insulted your work is quite impressive though I dont know what to do with it. I sure as hell would not be taking it to the places I shoot I would need a seperate case to put one of your cases in so nothing would happen to it. LOL

But in all seriousness, between the 15-20 threads of cues that are being bumped every two days by the same guy and break cues randomly being offered at a marked up price to a miscellaneous assortment of people maybe there could be some form of a solution.
 
I think I also received a request to purchase that Mezz.. mine came via email though.. the person had my address from a previous question I asked about a cue. He has since included me in (2) emails asking if I was interested in something he is selling....

John if you sent me a pm on a case I probably would have bought it. The person I was referring to was NOT John. I will be placing an order soon though.
