Hi Mate
I bought some of these they are very basic cue and you will be better off shopping around or even buying a second hand cue from ebay. But for the money they aint bad. If you need any more help I am sure any1 on this forim will help.

Look at e-bay and look at something like this item number 230426759636

Hi and welcome , never heard of these cues le alone seen one , so cant comment on the quality playablity etc .

Usually with these mass produced cheap cues you get what you pay for .If this is your max budget then Personally I would either look on ebay , or save a little extra and go to Craftsman , Mastercraft , mastercue , omin.

There are a few members here who may help you out , ADR 147 who sells cues , and Bitter who used to Welsh cues , although from what I understand no longer makes cues but is still selling them .

Ive got a powerglide handmade 3/4 for sale if youre interested along with a cuecraft case .

Very good and helpful post there mate. For budget buyers try Mastercarft and craftman cues

As far as i know "Snurta" is a ebay member and looks from the website its just a revamped Geordie pool of England site. Would you like to buy a cue from a place that has such attention to detail as this "Black Widow"?

It looks like Black Window!!!!

[matth1992]

yh, the black widow looks nice, are they are good make ?? and how much would i be looking at paying ?

Exactly

Im sorry but if you cant even get the badge right, god knows what the cue will be like.

I had a Geordie elegance through the workshop once and it was warped, had filler on it, splices had knife marks where they cut the tops down, there were gluelines and a badly fitted ferrule.

Id say they are the worst cues i have seen so far come out of China.
