    Rarely traded? Have a look at the for sale section - there's been loads recently! There's a least 3 on ebay atm too.

    Glad it's sold anyway.. Good luck to the new owner, now you just have to make it work!

      Well I was supposed to be the new owner but guess what I struck a deal arranged collection set off
      down the motorway on a 60 mile drive to collect and then got a message to say he had pulled out
      and traded the cue back in for his old cue. So turned round and set off back home disappointed to
      say the least. Then I get a message from guy who took the cue back offering to sell me the cue for
      lets say a heafty profit over what I had agreed to buy the cue for. Well tell you what don't think i'll
      bother and after a man goes back on his word i'm not surprised people get a bad name these days.
      My search will continue after a wasted day and thanks again buddy they say things happen for a
      reason!! maybe as the saying goes i can smell a rat!!

          That's bad news. . I'd be raging if that happened to me.

          Hope you find an alternative at your price mate. .

            Listen no worries I sent you two messages on here only 5 mins after I said yes and also 2 text messages before you set off to try and tell you and explain why I had done what I had I didn't want to lose 80 pounds on a cue less than a week of me having it. But I did try to contact you but I'll say sorry once again

              Your messages came through to my phone when I was 1/3 of the way down and if
              you were unsure of the deal you could have said no it was your choice. I will accept
              your apologies but will be more wary of dealing with people on this site again.
              Sorry to all the genuine guys on here but some people do spoil it for all the genuine
              sellers on here.

                The grain patterns have been familiar on a couple of the MW cues that have been for sale lately as they were cues from Mike's two clear out sales. You could pick up a cue for £285 and sell for £410 but in my eyes these cues were not to the standard that MW has historically produced.

                I do believe Mike is in some way trying to realign his end of the market regarding appearance of shafts. So many people are after specifically figured shafts which he will of course cater for just not at the £400-600 price bracket.
