Gunny you have good taste in cues. Pete "the Cop" as he was known around NYC and L.I. His son is following in his footsteps, and doing an excellent job. George died in early Dec. of 75' Toby Sweet's Balabushka was literally on George's Lathe, waiting to have an oil rubbed satin finish applied. Needless to say, Pete finished it, and Toby's cue was the 2nd to the last cue that George Balabushka ever made. Best of luck to you.I have some Tascarella’s that I’d like to sell that have been sitting around for some time and now that I pulled them from their cases, I’d like to find them a new home.
I can do a package deal or sell them off to the highest bidder individually.
They all come with their two shafts with all natural ferrules that range from 12.5mm to 13mm. I’d like to get 3300.00/3500.00 each but would like to be fair to all in case I’m way off my rocker. lol
For further specs, pics or offer, please reach out to me privately any time.
So BEST OFFER TAKES’EM ALL!!!

Thank you all for the opportunity…
Wow, yes, Pete Sr is truly a master at his craft and going strong at 82 I believe.Gunny you have good taste in cues. Pete "the Cop" as he was known around NYC and L.I.

Good hi res pics sell cues. That bushka played real good. It had 3 shafts. I was there when Toby sold that cue to Dennis Searing for $1100 in the mid 80's Dennis played good with that cue for awhile. We used to play all the time back in the mid 80's. He ended up selling the cue for $6k to a clothier from Miami, Joe Mason. I think Joe has passed. Solid guy.Wow, yes, Pete Sr is truly a master at his craft and going strong at 82 I believe.
Thank you for your kind words Steve.
I’m hoping to find them a good home soon. They’ve been sitting in cases long enough.
I’ll post more pics with the shafts, close ups, at different angles over the weekend that might help someone to pull the trigger. =)

Very nice cues. If you would, please post prices fir them. It is a requirement on this forum.
Prices are clearly stated in my post and meaningless since really everything is 100% negotiable. Especially since I’m not looking to profit/make money selling cues as I’m by far not a cue dealer.Very nice cues. If you would, please post prices fir them. It is a requirement on this forum.
is this what you mean as clearly stated prices for your 5 cues?Prices are clearly stated in my post and meaningless since really everything is 100% negotiable. Especially since I’m not looking to profit/make money selling cues as I’m by far not a cue dealer.
I’ve gotten lots of interest and not necessarily looking for the highest bidder but rather a fair and honest deal that will make us both happy with the purchase.
They will go to a good home and I plan on posting more pictures tomorrow when I can get more organized.
I’ll go over in detail with all that interested via private msg/call or video as I’ve been doing.
Hope that helps meet my “requirement” here.
Thanks
I don’t often sell anything on AZB much less eBay but I definitely agree that I’m not above the rules here and 100% agree with your comments and observations. I wasn’t trying to get “a bidding” going, just not up to date with market pricing and wanted to be fair.is this what you mean as clearly stated prices for your 5 cues?
"I’d like to get 3300.00/3500.00 each but would like to be fair to all in case I’m way off my rocker. lol"
If you would really like to "be fair to all" as you said, then price each cue and include actual specs for each so prospective buyers can make an informed decision. Ballparking the specs and prices isnt fair to the rest of the sellers who make saure to follow the rules which, btw, you can read at the top of the forum in the Sticky section. There's even a suggested template to follow to make it easier.
If it;s bids and offers you are looking for, maybe eBay would be the way to go.
You've got some very nice Tascs for sale and believe me, I'm not trying to rain on your parade. The Admins posted rules for us to follow so why not comply? I know most people looking to spend $3k+ for a cue are usually interested in tip size, weights, length, woods, condition, straightness etc.
Sharing this info def makes it easier for both sellers and prospective buyers.
thx
