I wonder if anyone will be stupid enough to pay that price.

[wailord]

Shame there are no pictures or specs.

[Straight strike]

The seller stressed that no silly offer from bidder but the intended sales price was silly in itself! How funny!

Is this actually a Parris cue ? Says it's 30 - 40 years old . When did JP start making cues ?

correct - it can't be, he started in about 84 i think. but its a machine spliced cue he used before as well, that said i expect it has a parris badge.

If I'm not mistaken it's an old bce cue.

Hi how can you tell with no pictures of cue

[khizzy]

i caught a glimpse of his cue at the world snooker academy, sheffield during the ptc 1, it had a round white sticker on it, not sure if it was a bce sticker or a parris badge.

defo not a parris cue, it was just maintained by jp, the badge says "john parris customised cue", which is only used on the cues not made by parris cues

I know mark is good but to have beaten "all the top boys" with it at that age must of took some doing!
Sweet jesus, some people.

I think it is just worded badly. Because Mark is in the pics, im guessing the seller knows him well, i think it is meant to say "i have owned the cue for 30 years" (meaning Mark, not the seller)
