I exchanged few emails with OP today.
Not very friendly to begin with. His idea of "working a deal" was - you send me a money order or a check, I will send you a cue when it clears. Right.....
When offered to use escrow, I was told that he is not sending a cue to somebody he does not know. And then instantly I was called a scammer, Oh well.
After going back and forth, OP mentioned that cue is 2 month old and he is the original owner. Come to find out that cue was made by Tad K's son. Supposedly he is running the shop. I was told to go on the website and ask for Fred. When asked about website, OP sent me some pictures of the cue and refused to provide web address.
By the way, does anyone know if that is true? ANd what is the value of PJ made by son?
OP kept insisting that he is an honest guy and that I should send him a check or MO.
At the end when I told him that if he does nto want to do escrow then I am not sending him any money before I see a cue. Guess what? He sends me some pictures and replies - see the cue? Now you understand that I am an honest person?
Oh, and then when I told him No, he sends me a nice reply - F*** You.
That is my experience with OP.
