    £1700 currently ...suppose it doesn't hurt that O'Sullivan won last night with the same cue design.

    Quite possibly it would, just a shame it was won by a pool player who got it altered so much. =/

    Pity the spec is all over the place, a pool cue spec for a snooker world championship cue, obviously been altered quite a bit.

    It's mad that snooker players have that mentality though, we all would much rather blame the cue even though we're telling it what to do

    I don’t really think it’s the ‘Ronnie’ design of the cue on eBay that appeals to bidders but rather the fact that it’s one piece with an ultimate number (1953) from about 7 years ago. A lot of these cues are now being bought up by buyers in HK, China and Singapore which also pushes the price up as well as the very long waiting time for one piece JPUs.
    Can easily see the cue selling for close to £2K which isn’t an indication of how good it plays but just purely supply and demand.
    Yeah the vast majority seem to be going abroad, parris ultimates and h&o seem to be the main ones. If you see parris traditionals on ebay they usually go pretty quick as well, John said in one video that it was a very popular design because it looks like Ronnies cue.



    As for Ronnies cue its funny to look at just how worn it is, the grain is really worn down and it doesn't seem to have been refinished. You can see 4 and a bit arrows then the rest is worn away. Must really press his chin onto the cue when addressing the ball.
