        Never bought from him but I don't like his listings. Clever enough to never commit to actually identifying the maker & model of old cues, intenionally avoids providing quality photos and uses terms like 'enhanced rosewood butt'. Very clever 'Shyster' in my opinion!

          Another to avoid! I thought you were spent up...? Might have had a cue for you.

            Oh recognise the seller, I had a query re the Fitzpatrick cue he sold, with the date on the badge being around 100 years wrong!

                    Thanks for the warning Jim, I thought about getting a couple of his cues a while back so much for and I quote on his listing.."With over 30 years experience playing snooker at semi pro level I have a keen eye for dealing in quality cues" hmmm.

                        Look at the Victorian print he has advertised. It seems to feature somebody sitting at a computer if you look carefully.

                        Good example of how not to take a photograph of something consisting of glass.
