Rich cue

[Sedog]

Bought this vintage Rich Cue and I’m wondering what the value might be. The seller said it was never used, but got knocked around for years so the joint is all scratched up and the tip got knocked off, he add an old old he had lying around.
Thanks for any inputs.

Pics would be mandatory for appraisal.
There were NY and FL Rich cues also.

Look forward to seeing it. My first 2 piece was a Rich for about $32.00 in the mid 60’s. I was making $42.50 a week. Sorry I sold it.

Where is it now? Very good cues.

By ‘78, I started buying more serious cues….I was paying hundreds, they became worth thousands.
turned down three Bushkas…I was picky.

Who the heck ever thought they would be worth big money in the future.

Whenever I'd go to Palace billiards in SF, the showcase of cues for sale always had several Rich models, and I'd stand there and drool.

From a few similar posts over the last few years, price is in the $200 range, maybe a bit under 2 bills. Some info on the maker here http://www.billiardsforum.com/pool-cue-identification/info-on-a-rich-q-pool-cue
