bent cue or intentional taper?

[bigandyg]

Plenty bends on a corkscrew but it will roll straight on a table.

[jaffa.johnson]

where did u buy it from?

you can get better quality cues than the one you have purchased

I know but Im working within a budget and peradon have a good name.
Bought online.

Dont really want to get into exactly where i bought it just yet.
I dont want to spread negativity without good justification.

put cue under camera and rotate it.

It is a machine spliced half jointed Peradon cue. It appears bent. A bent can be fixed and it is not the end of the world. You can have it fixed. 30 GBP or so I believe should cover it. But then may be you only paid 30 GBP for the cue so I can see why you may hesitate to do so.
I would say just talk to them.
If you expect a cue to be dead straight and stay that way this cue or any cue in this price range is not your best choice.

The cue cost me a total of €129 / £107 delivered.
I dont really consider that to be small money for a pool cue.
I have bought cheaper cues than this in the past that were straight and stayed straight.

Ill just post it back tomorrow. I only received it late last week.

What I meant to say is just that even if you have fixed it or exchange for another one it may warp again somewhere down the road.
With this kind of cue sometimes it is really just luck.
I dont know how much they sell this in Peradon because I have never been intersted in their cues but I must say I am surprised to hear that you pay over 100 GBP for it.
I think you may want to look into Thai cues they are very nice cues for the money.
I totally agree it is important to have a cue that is straight and you are entitled to a straight cue when you pay for a new cue.

i know I made the mistake of posting in 2 locations.

Yea but that is how much the cue costs all over the net regardless of supplier.
Its one of the cheapest pool cues peradon do.
and what I paid for it (delivered which cost 20 pounds ) is about right believe it or not.

I have found it online at 62.00.

If I was you, I would going down the route of refund.

Good luck.

[Grifter]

I bet they would slap on VAT after that .
Thats what happened me anyway.

If you find this cue slightly used for sale, how much will you pay for it? I would say no more than 50 GBP.

A cue like this is likely made in the Far East, wood quality is probably very low. Hard to expect something like this to stay straight in my honest opinion. It is like one step better than a house cue.

I will not be suprised if they do not cover warpage which is why I suggested that perhaps he can sort it out with a cue doctor and then just ask if they can cover the cost or whatever. Not trying to be mean or rude--if you buy a house cue and then it warps after a couple week, will you ask them to refund your money? They may not even cover warpage under their warranty for a cue in this price range.

I did not know he also posted another thread about the same thing, think it should be posted in the cue section. No need to start more than one thread about the same issue.

You need to talk to the person who sold you the cue first instead of coming on here posting multiple threads about the same thing.
