Ask for the price (TW)

Maybe he ships a large number of cues at once to save on shipping costs?

Dunno. -.-

what is the advantage of having an agent in these 2 places?

The only advantage is to force Hong Kong and Mainland Chinese people paying more, in order to have more contribution to the economy.

You guys probably can't imagine we are almost paying 400 pounds for a plain ebony maple.... I guess if I deal with Trevor directly, I may save around 50 gbp.

what is the advantage of having an agent in these 2 places?

Perhaps due to foreseeable language barriers, an agent who is fluent in both Chinese and English could help to make transactions smoother...

However I see no reason why they should not be directly available ...

If you are good friends with somebody from the forum, or you have relatives in another country - perhaps you could order the cue to their address, and have them ship it to you - this may save you some time and money - but may invalidate any product guarantees?

I don't think the HONG KONG guy who can gets much money by the agent due to Trevor White's cues go to HONG KONG just 1 or 2 times a year.
