What is the deal with these Cues - see ad on Ebay ?

My problem with sticks from there is the age of the wood and humidity, acclimation can be rough.

I have a beautiful Joel Dadivas cue (second from the bottom in my avatar) that plays decently. Both shafts still roll perfectly straight. I may have gotten lucky....who knows?

But yeah, buying most inexpensive cues from the Philippines is a crap shoot.

This guy shows pics of the real-deal cue in his ebay ads but thats not even close to what you get. For this cue his ad shows a JOSS COM cue. Bait-n-switch i guess.

I was curious about the Boriz cues and purchased one.
... One of the white inlays is misshapen.

That's what makes them one of a kind.
