What's The Best Cue Deal You Feel You've Ever Made

Pawn shop

I picked up a Ginacue in a pawn shop for $75.
Two weeks later in the same pawn shop...a Tad for $60.
Shop was in Vegas.
Nothing seen that good since.

You may be smiling.:) but what about the people they were stolen from.:(
 
They come, they go

About 8 years ago I bought a very early Gus ( Szamboti ), in great shape, with two original shafts, for $300.00. I actually bought it with thoughts of using it myself, as I have always been a fan of Gus's work, but the cue didn't hit ANYWHERE near a nice as my Schick, so I sold it 2 days later for $1700.00 to a guy who collected Boti's. And he thought HE got a good deal!:eek: Not a bad payday.;)

Not a high $ deal by any means, but I purchased 5 new cues off e-bay for $100, then did a little leg work around the pubs in my area and sold them for $65-$80 each. I made enough to purchase a Viking which I still have.
 
I think anyone that can get their hands on a Dennis Searing cue probably has had the best deal. I hear his cues are phenomenal.
