    Unfortunately, he will most likely prioritize them. They are his main income source. He even went to one of the sellers' booth at the Guangzhou International Biliards Exhibition held every year. From what I see he is even signing CueCraft cue cases so that they can sell them for higher. In short, JP is a businessman and he is the cash cow of the Chinese sellers because of the name he's established for himself. And a businessman always prioritizes his main revenue source. That's why the Ultimates went from having a 2-3 year wait to 8 years wait since the Chinese players have joined the scene.

                  Tried ordering on Coutts but it said that i had nothing in my basket when i went to check out . So , i assume that they are all sold out .

                  Emailed them , but no response as yet .

                    Hi Neil. I had a similar problem when I bought mine. The website is fiooked. I ended up texting Louise. Couldn’t get PayPal to work either. I think I ended up just giving my card details to Louise over the phone. Good luck. Worth persevering if you can get hold of some MW tips.

                        Are the Supertips good? I’m on Taom Fusion and I’m new to MW. I added 2 packs of Blackspin tips and 1 pack of Supertips to my cue order. Just wanted to take a try of traditional pre-pressed tips with a little of modern modification .

                          Supertips are my favourite tip . Just had Marc Lockley [ Snooker Crazy ] re-finish my cue and put my last Supertip on .

                          A quality job by Marc as well on my cue .
