Stolen Cues Alert - reward for return

I will keep an eye out!

Bad deal, I can only imagine how the owner must feel right now...SICK!

Maybe there should be a way to install a GPS chip to locate high end cues, or any cue, in the advent it gets stolen. That would be a suprise for the theif in the midle of the night.......
 
Ill keep the eyes open, and alert some friends in the Philadelphia area...


Best of luck!!!

Duc,

Didn't Simon's case looked like this? I remember seeing the Brooklyn Bridge carved into the side.

These pictures came from Jim Murnak's website.

It was very similar to this case, but the case in the picture belongs to Jorge Rodriquez.
 
It's painful to even read the post.... it's far fetch but i'll be watching out on chinese forums.
 
Thanks Henry. We'll see what happens. Who ever takes it...is going to have a hard time carry it around NY. All the pool players around NY knows about these stolen cues. We will be making an announcement at the Tournaments this weekend at Steinway Billiards...Will have photos of all stolen cues so all players will be aware of them.

If anyone have any information please call my cell directly 646-824-7092.

Thanks again guys.

Regards,
Duc.

That's bad to hear, Duc....hope you and Simon can get them back. Not much worse than a thief. We'll keep an eye out for you guys, as well. Best of luck!

Sorry to hear this bad news, Simon & Duc. :mad:

Will keep my eyes peeled next door in Connecticut.

One other suggestion, Duc, if you haven't already done so.

Definitely get the word out to all nearby pawn shops since thieves, oftentimes, make them their first stop with stolen goods.
