Hunt and O'byrne black plate cue

[x53]

How much this cue worth? 28 years old 3/4 ash and rosewood butt with hunt and o'byrne case and long extension that fit to the shaft. It is black plate hunt & o'byrne cue made in london Elephant and castle.
58 17oz 9.5 tip. 30mm butt. Cue was refinished by parris cues and i was shocked when i saw my cue like new. Cue is stiff and play really well. Balance at 17.5-18 inches. Brass joint at 16 inches.


Sold.

I agree with you, a plain rosewood butt cue and ash shaft and you expect it to be worth around £1k-£2k, get real. I know that the black plate cues are sought after but this doesn't look to be anything special either. Also there are that many fakes around now that unless you have proof of its authenticity a lot of buyers are being put off now.

Hi cueman, the badge, joint, butt end looks good to me, are you just commenting about that there are fakes out there or do you have specific concerns about this cue? cheers

Is it me, or is the writing style very similar to our moped friend ?

Take it you couldn't afford it then..
People can spend whatever they like on anything, what's it to you? Green eye'd much??

[grimreaper]

I probably could afford a hell of a lot more than you if i was stupid enough to waste that amount.
