    Not sure what makes you think these things.

    I assume the market decides what price to pay ? ADR147 isn't a registered charity to my knowledge.

    Same as an antique dealer paying low for items then selling them for more to turn a profit.

    A deal needs both the buyer AND the seller to be happy with the price, or one will walk away surely ?

    Freida ( think that's how to spell it ) adds some fiction to colour the deal, but if the buyer is happy

    with his items, and pays the asking price, who are we to say he's been screwed ?

      Don't recall this for sale . Are you getting confused with a Hunt and O'bryne cue that was for sale ?

      You need to be careful , as there are Original Will Hunts from a fewyears back and the new Will Hunts that are currently for sale . There is a big price difference between the 2 .
      Still trying to pot as many balls as i can !

        you are quite mad - feel free to ask dave coutts - although i know the guy and have spoken to him a few times i have never bought a cue from him! i don't screw anyone out of money i try and earn a fair profit for my work just like every other person!

          by pictures is very hard with the best fakes but usually with parris cues the badge is the wrong colour. parris badges are not white they are a sort of cream colour.

          • or if they get the colour closer to correct, the lettering is usually wrong somehow.
            But as ADR says, holding is the best way to check, photos make it difficult.
            There have been some JP fakes from other countries other than China.
            Up the TSF! :snooker:

                      • looks a nice cue but cue is wrong, badge is wrong, and joint is wrong, it's not a Hunt & O'byrne.

                          Apparently paragons take 2 years to make now, no prizes for guessing who's flogging it.

                            So Paragons take longer than Ultimates now, gods knows how long the wait must be for a Special then!!!

                              • Suprising how John can't get these listings removed, ebay apparently require a mountain of evidence to even bother taking a look.
