  • Buying cues on eBay

    So I want a john parris cue and was wondering if buying the cue on ebay.co.uk would be a dumb idea?

    If definitely would be a bit cheaper but would it be dumb since you don't actually get to try out the cue?

    and what if it arrives and it isn't perfectly straight?

        yeh. i bought a cue off ebay and it arrived yesterday, it was only a cheap cue but i bought it because they said it had a 7mm tip, and i was going to use it for playing pool, but when i looked at it, it is a standard tip and not a 7mm. which pi**ed me off.

          lol list it as standard tip it will fetch more - 7mm is too small anyway.

                I'd say as long as it's genuine you're better off buying an older one anyway

                        Yes, all of them are for sale.
                        Just update (willysellcue@ yahoo.com) me when you are traveling down and we can test at my nearby snooker hall.
                        Price has been updated (on the previous page) and not negotiable.
