Why are some cue makers so rude and have bad attitudes?

How many times do I need to repeat myself, for you guys to understand? I never asked for a new shaft for $50. The guy offered to make me a shaft for $50, and I asked if he could make it 12.3mm for me. Instead of nicely telling me that it would not be worth his time and effort to do that for me (and tell me how much extra I would need to pay to have him do that), he gets a really bad attitude about it and in my opinion, his PM reply was pretty nasty. I did not create this thread to talk about shaft pricing, and it should not matter about the price. My point was that people should be nice, and have a good attitude. I would like to add that I do not care how good the deal is on the item that I am being offered. If the person is not going to be nice and friendly, then I do not want to deal with that person. People need to learn to have a better attitude. Don't get nasty with a person if you do not like their request. Just be nice, or just do not reply back at all.

Might I ask you how old you are?
 
wth is wrong with you guys ????

all the man wants is a cheap ass shaft and for every one in the world to be courteous in their dealings with each other.

damn :rolleyes:
 
I agree the cue maker should have politely turned down the order if he didn't like the price, but the innocent tone of the OP reminds me of a classic story from The Onion about a struggling bible salesman:

Um, well, to be honest, I am scared to death of any type of weapons (even household knives that are sharp enough to cut my finger), and I would never do anything to try to hurt anyone (no matter how upset I get). I just come on here, and cry about it in the NPR section, lol. I admit, that I have mental issues, but I am not a threat to society. I am nice and friendly to everyone I meet, and if anyone says or does anything that bothers me, I just cry about it on the inside (and on the forum, lol). I have come to understand that people do not like whiners though. I just wish there were not so many people with bad attitudes in this world. I think that the less people with bad attitudes there were, the better this world would be. And please forgive me bad working, or improper spelling everyone. Thanks.

Honestly there is no victim, and you are still looking for a shaft . Thee end .

IF you own any weapons, please turn them in to the local Law Enforcement, we seen what happened in San Bernandino last week when a couple of people got so easily offended. Is this your MANIFESTO in the making?

Those were moo-slime terrorists.
They definitely do NOT count.
Happy or not they would have done it anyway.
 
This has been very entertaining..... But the reality is that it take a lot of time to turn down a shaft to 12.3.... ect without messing it up. I'm working on a cue where the dude wants 4 shafts..... yes i gave him a break..... but only 90.00 per extra shaft... not 50.00. The cost of good wood is more than a happy meal.... let alone the cost of quality tip.

But in the end, we should not be rude to our customers. We can always politely say we are not interested in applying our trade for that amount of money. :cool:
 
I'm pretty sure in your wtb post, you listed all the options you wanted and then said " for no more than $50"
I would consider that asking.
