WTB: Very Hard Non-Layered Break tips (13mm)

Tons'O'fun said:
I'm wondering if anyone has some very hard jump/break tips they'd be willing to sell me.

I don't want a layered tip, and would prefer they are 13mm in size, (will also take 14mm).

Maybe a Sumo Water Buffalo or some Triangles, whatever you have around as long as they are hard enough to use for jumping and breaking.

Please PM me if you have anything I might be interested in. Would prefer to pay through PayPal.

Thanks :p
I just ordered some white diamonds off ebay. I have never used one but would be willing to ship one out as soon as they come in. Hope this helps.

White Diamond Tips, I've never heard of them, any relation to Brunswick's Blue Diamond tips?. I found some info on them here.

I would definitely appreciate your sending me a tip, but I have no idea what to offer as I have no clue what they retail for. I use ebay a lot and would purchase some there myself, but I can't seem to find any on ebay Canada. Are they only for sale in the US?.

The guy on ebay is Joe Picone, sells JP's cheap too.

Thanks, I just Googled the info up a minute ago. Unfortunately that ebay seller only ships to the USA and I'm in Canada. :(

Unless someone wants to be my surrogate buyer I'm "S" out of luck. LOL :D

BTW - Joe Picone sells the tips for $10.95 each, and the guy on ebay is selling 3 for $11.95. Is something fishy here?. :confused:
 
I think he has them on his site just to have a retail price to base the auctions on. Either way the guy makes great products at great prices.

Really?, he's undercutting himself?. That's hysterical!. :p

Wow, how can he justify that, people who buy from his site would pay $33 for 3 tips, the ones who buy from him on ebay would only pay $11.95.

That's messed up!. :confused:
 
Break tip

I have a Chandivert ROCKY TIP. IT is the hardest leather tip i have ever owned. IT is great for breaking and jumping. These tips are hard. I'll send you one for 5 dollars and I'll pay for shipping.
 
Picone tip

I have two Picone tips I could send you. I use a Sledgehammer cue now so I'll never use them. I'll trade you for some fiber pads if you have them. =o]
 
If that deal doesn't work out it might be worth emailing Joe. He did me a nice deal on some tips.
 
White Diamond tips are awesome! I use one on my Gilbert J/B cue. Haven't found anything better. Hard as phenolic, but with more control...

I take it you just have the one tip?. Also, is the tip non-layered 13mm?.

Chandivert recently went out of business, not sure I want to get used to a tip that I can never replace again. :D

In the meantime I'm without a break cue, so do you accept Paypal?.
:cool:


Yes, it is non-layered. and I have a box of 10. But I used 2 so I have 8 brand new tips. So if you want all of them I will give them to you for 40 or just 5 a piece, and I'll cover shipping. I do accept paypal. Get back to me if you are interested. thanks

Actually, Chandivert closed up shop, in February of 2004. Here is a LINK to a post I made at RSB when I first found out. I guess the suppliers, are just now running out of their inventory after 19 months.
