my cue collection john parris ultimate 1pc ash -replica j.p.mannock

[narl]

Not by any means a new thing. I bought 2 'antique' cues from a seller who is a member here, one earlier and privately, and one listed on for sale on this forum - both later proved to be fakes/unoriginal (bought for £360, sold as replicas for ~£150). As far as I know the seller is still a member here, and when I tried to bring attention to this at the time no one had any interest at all. The seller is still listing cues regularly on ebay, and I assume buyers think they're getting the real thing to -- must be tony glovers best customer I think..

Whats the sellers ebay id so it can be one to be avoided?

Good timing asking that, he has just put a cue on ebay, this is one of his accounts, can't remember at moment his other one, maybe perpetual will add it. Now this cue may be genuine, i'm NOT saying it isn't, but he has sold dodgy one's in the past !!

Jason,

This is slightly worrying !
Have you bought the cue and now having second thoughts, or are you still looking to buy the cue, even after reading all this ???

surely for most cues the replica's would be worth more than the antiques?

his name is karl kwadi or something similar - he has been a cue collector for many many years so should know if they are genuine or not.

True but i'm 99.99 % certain this is the person who conned Mike (perpetualboredem)
PS, i agree tho that a replica will be worth more than an original lol, now that i have a couple pics tomorrow, if it's not too foggy

If you think a £40 donor cue and a £30 badge attached makes a cue worth £200-£300, give me a call we can do some business .

ah - that's not the same thing as a glover replica cue then! becaus ei would want a lot more for my mannock than an original mannock would ever fetch.

Now there's a thought, cue donor cards.

In the event of my death, please leave my cue collection to DWOT! (Yes Jim that means you! XxX)

Supose its better than our lass sending them down river wi me while ime burning dwayne lol,karl emailed me about this cue the other day

[poolqjunkie]

We cannot really blame Ferret for something like that. He cannot be responsible for all sales on the forum--he provids a free listing service but he should not and cannot possibly be held liable whenver something goes wrong.
About this incident I have to say I am not sure what actually happened. I hope we can hear from Jason soon.

Think the problem with fake cues is only going to get worse the way prices are escalating in the far east for premium cues.
