John Parris cue. Real or fake. Please help

[NSW29]

Good afternoon. Looking at this Parris cue, does anyone have any idea if it’s genuine or not? Any advice welcome. Thank you. Nick.

You can try uploading photos to imgbb.com and then imbedding the link in your post. If you search 'imgbb' in the forum there are posts with instructions how to do it.

How to add images to your TSF posts
You can use a free image-sharing site such as ImgBB, without registering (you can register for free), to upload your images, you may have to do the “not a robot” checks quickly. There are other image sharing sites as well.
ImgBB.com
Click on "Start Uploading".
Browse to the file and select it, click Open.
Auto delete image - leave as "Don't autodelete".
Click "Upload".

Change "Embed Codes" to "BBCode full linked".

Hover mouse over the code in the box, a "COPY" will appear, click this.
Go to your TSF post and paste.
You can repeat for multiple images in a single post.

Thank you both. Has this worked? Can you see it?

[NSW29]

Thank you so much mark. Really appreciate it. I figured it was a custom as the splicing is done with pink ivory which I personally have never seen before.

It can be difficult to check cues from photos but to me the badge looks wrong; the spacing, the font and size of type all look wrong.
Have you sent the photos to John Parris directly? He usually replies.

If you do, please let us know

being so individual John should know this cue if he made it

[NSW29]

You’ve made a great point. The font is off completely after I’ve compared it to others. Thank you so much for your help. I haven’t messaged John directly no, but then again I’m not planning on buying this cue. Huge help and saved me a small fortune.

Yes there's definitely something a bit Brighton Rock about that font especially in the middle Ultimate lettering.

[NSW29]

Thank you all. I have emailed Parris cues and they confirmed that the cue was not genuine. Dodged a bullet there. Thanks again all

Phew. Nice one Nick. Panic over.

Doesn't look right, the splicings look too even to for me. Sorry for the joke. Yeah the badges font looks a bit off.
