  • Limited going high

    £160 above list price and reserve not met ? gosh.

    Folk bidding only have bid on 1 or 2 items as well. Is that just the norm ?

      I just always wonder when the buyer of an expensive cue has only bid on 1 or 2 items, but has lots of selling feedback,

      and the seller has zero feedback. . . .

        Still don't know what you are getting at, are you saying your not allowed to only sell on ebay lol
        Ohh and by the way, the bids are only over a 30 day period, not the lifetime of a member

          Hmmm, sketchy. Member since 2012 and no feedback? Odd. Cue is lovely though, just need an 80s two-tone look to go with it.

          The towel alone is worth £800, they are very sought after................

                No one will pay that price or more unless you are a raving rich idiot.

                  I personally don't give a monkeys about chevrons etc but with JP himself probably never laid a finger on this cue I just wondered why they have decided to put arrows facing up at the bottom of the shaft and arrows facing down at the top end of the shaft.

                    Not sure what you mean Bill,
                    The highest bidder at the moment has successfully bid on 143 items in the past, he has only placed 3 bids on this particular cue though?
                    Did you put my "1" up ?

                      Yeah, sorry, as JCR pointed out, I was looking at the 30 day history and miss-interpreting that as complete history. My bad.

                            And if it makes the reserve price, it is worth that amount. Some on here may not like the design but it's pretty unique. Nice to see some marquetry for a change, instead of the usual conny style every bore goes for after Hendry. UK cues are very boring compared to N. American cues, little artistic input.

                              We don't know for certain what the reserve is set at, but you could buy it brand new for less than it is now, so how can it be worth it ???
