      I wish there were more cues that got away from me, I'll be paying for my addition for ever more!

      One particular Inman cue really annoyed me.. sniper failed and it sold for about £300 (max bid was 500+)! It just sold to someone I know for £450 too!.. so could have made a bob or two on that one grr.

        May be the butt was thinned down and the badge replaced?

          More likely it was changed to increase the value ! As only people "in the know" would realise MAST was early Trevor White, but badge actually saying "Trevor White" will be instantly recognisable (especially in Asian markets)

              Yes, very nice collection he has. He obviously knows his cues--best I have seen.

                  I consider it a real honour to have two of my cues in his fine collection. :-) When he purchased his first Aurora cue we were just starting to get into making snooker cues.:-)

                        awwwwwwww Neil, that is sad-many people would have sold a cue they had a big break with and then regretted it later too.
                        Hope you find it again.

                        This thread should get re-named 'Cues reunited'

                          Or at least one should be started.......
                          If you want to play the pink, but you're hampered by the red, you could always try to play the brown!

                            Problem with that is....the person you sold it to has to be as stupuid as we were in selling it in the first place!

                                Matty,
                                That as my cue,
                                Still use the case.
                                Oh and thats my knee, still using that too

                                I brought the cue from Mike, brand new in 2005 for £275.
                                Used it for a few years and sold it on ebay for £425, to Craig Slater I think.

                                I ordered it from Mike after Andrew Ramsay showed me a cue his brother had which was the same.

                                It played as well as it looks.
