Sampaio "The Premier" FS

[BillPorter]

An old friend of mine has an old Sampaio (The Premier) he wants to sell. It is in pretty good shape; all the scratches and nicks seem to be just in the finish. There's a crack in the little white ring near the bumper. Also, the original shaft was replaced, but the brass insert at the joint end of the shaft is original. The butt weight 14.7 oz. and the shaft weight 4.1 oz. The shaft is 12.2 mm just below the ferrule. The cue is 57 inches long. The shaft is pretty straight, but I can see a bit of warp in the butt.

$300 shipped!!!

I just put a few photos of the cue in a Smugmug gallery: http://billporter.smugmug.com/gallery/3156312#173358236

An evening bump before I hit the sack.

I have the same exact with the same exact problem. I should play with it, I have no idea how it hits. I like all of the MOP inlays on the cue, all of the carving is done by hand, they Blue Book from 375-800

Good luck
Ted

That sounds like a one in a million coincidence. Want another one?

Aafternoon bump and more information

I just spoke with the owner and he said he would consider any offers above $300 for the cue. I think it will make a fine collector cue for a price in the $350-$450 range. Thanks for looking!
