Cues are like cars?
larry,
It seems to me that cues are becoming like cars - Once you drive one off the lot, it loses 25% of its sticker value. I agree with Joaquin, the price check must involve people who trade/sell Gilberts and would actually purchase one. Otherwise, it is not a true gauge of VALUE. It would be like asking the Ford dealer how much a 2006 Ferrari is worth - to them it is probably less than a new Mustang. And we all know that isn't right. Just my 2 cents. And I would say that the value of the Gilbert cue on the secondary market in my opinion would be between $850 - 900. Very nice cue, just need to find the right buyer who respects the work, wants a Gilbert quickly, and would buy it for your asking price, or close to it. Good luck with the sale, or better luck getting used to the grip style.
