What do you need explained? The concept of life and death?
Searing Cue

Really??? Pretty sure he meant 'by' and not 'from'.
And for a refinish, Proficient probably would have done a better job. After someone does something thousands of times, they typically get better at it than someone that does it once in a while. For my money, a Searing refinish would add no extra value to the cue whatsoever. And for the shaft, there's probably 50 guys that can make one as good as Dennis...and a couple that can make one better. All MHO opinion of course.
Why didn't you just use seyberts? you would have had it back in a week.
Or my go-to guy Cody Cash in Wichita(PK Custom Cues). Does fantastic work at fair prices in a timely manner.
seyberts does refinish`s?

I do. I have been contacted by a 3rd party on his behalf. He is supposedly going to reach out to me tomorrow. We will see if that happens. If it doesn't, which I have my doubts, I will post more. Im not trying to destroy anyone online, just want my cue back.
Destroy away sir. Tools like this clown need to be called out.

Rather than commission new cues from old makers, I will commission new cues from young makers like Studio Tronic and just buy old maker cues on the secondary market. All the negative stories I'm hearing right now are all cue makers 65+ years old that eff'ing around because they only fear the reaper, not finding out...
I will only buy makers who have departed this world, or have fully retired and stopped making shit (like Buss)
Proficient can handle all the refinishing needs I may have....

So you really did not mean "from"?

Please direct your follow-on questions to my unpaid legal counsel Garczar.
Anyone waiting 4 years for work that was promised within one month without taking very direct action to retrieve their cue cannot be taken seriously- could you please loan me $10K - I will pay you back in a month -
Get it, tell him how you feel! I agree 4 years is ouch especially the quality and price point of the cues we invest our money in.

Yes.
He absolutely meant he was going to pull out a crystal ball and tarot cards to astral project cues directly from the hereafter

I would like to point out that since this response is not from Garczar it can not be considered "officially" a response to Biloxi Boi's question or can ideologist's response be construed to be a point I agree with, even if it is a point that I may agree with.

I think he means buying cues from the resale market rather than trying to order
a cue from an already deceased cue maker who is tardy returning phone calls.

Support you cue builders. Buy from them.
Don't buy from anyone else unless deep discount.

I don't know Pete Jr's age, but if you order a Tascarella, you'll get it when they say you'll get it, if not sooner. And their turnaround time is pretty quick all things considered.
They also promptly respond to email and phone calls.

I have dealt with them and both very professional.
Their cues are priced fairly. You will be surprised.
Unlike what people charge for flipping them. LOL
When you speak with them its like they are very happy you found out who they are and came to them. A sense of this subtle confidence like they will make what you want and you will be blown away.
