I have just been offered one of these cues for £170 i have seen the cue it is in pretty decent condition the only bad point that the badge plate has faded, the cue is in a 1 piece form and a ash shaft,

What does everyone think about this particular cue and is the price any good let me know.

Regards Matt

Well i have a 2 piece version that cost me exactly 1/3 of that ! One piece is more desirable i suppose, but either i got a great bargain or your being charged too much lol....who can say which is right ?

[Matt-10ant]

Just went and took a pic....looks like a very hard plastic to me ??

when I was playing my best snooker 20+ years ago I played with a two piece power glide but couldn't remember the model. I didn't know that the connoisseur came as a two piece. Now seeing your pictures I would say that mine could have been a connoisseur. Do you know what other models where around at that time.

Was the Connoisseur above or below the Purist in the line-up? The Purist was £70 to buy new back then and I very nearly purchased one. How much was the Connoisseur?

[jrc750]

There was also the Executive and the Statesman, but don't know what order they went in, but the Connoisseur is only multi-spliced one so maybe is top of the pile ??

[Matt-10ant]

Is there more than one version as i have a pool partner who has one and his badge is totally different it has a metal badge with etched detailing and like clear little gems around the badge was this badge in production or could it be an after badge as my friend doesnt know
