Hi guys

Well i looks like I'm going to be putting my Blackcreek up for sale soon but the cue has a couple of dings in the butt sleeve and the shafts could do with a clean. Would it be worth refinishing it before i sell it or should i just let who-ever buys the cue take care of it.

Personally i don't see myself getting the cost of the refinish back from the extra I'd get selling it in 100% condition, but then again it would be easier to sell if it was perfect.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as always. :)

I agree with your thinking .. so it's a choice you have to make. Maximizing the bucks or quick sell ...

I, personally, wouldn't refinish a cue for a sale unless it's in horrible condition. For few dings or flaws, I'd just disclose them. Something like Blackcreek, I'd think people will buy the cue for the playability rather than collection or investment so few dings shouldn't deter the potential buyers.

By the way, I've owned three blackcreeks and they are fine cues for the money.
 
I agree with Jazz. I have a basic 6-pointer Blackcreek that I use as my daily player and it has a couple of very small dings and smudges to the finish. I may use this cue to trade up for something else sometime and I won't refinish it. However I also have a fancier butterfly spliced with inlays that I had Travis refinish and put a new wrap on. I plan to keep this one though.

Hope this helps!
