  • Dodgy John Parris cue on ebay ???

    Very rare you see a John Parris cue with no bids, especially with a reasonable start price, looking closely at the badge it looks shockingly fitted, is this a wrong un then ???

    Picture 5 - You can see the splice line .

    Don't think it's dodgy.....just a poor picture i believe .
    Still trying to pot as many balls as i can !

      Deffo dodgy. Ruff bits around the badge and it looks like its sunk into the butt too much rather than being flush.

          I thought that about pic 5 but it could just be the pic angle making the cross over look longer?

            Pic5 does not show the joint !!!!!

              Lol, very dodgy indeed, but still strange that no one has put a bid in, maybe everyone is getting wiser

                      He's just told me the one piece cue pic is a Burwat Champion cue that he is selling, so that bit is cleared up
                      Plus he said he has had cue from new so is genuine, altho no receipt

                        I'd prefer to put it as 1.611111 of a yard

                          Don't know if it's fake or not but i kind of like the design. (and im not a big fan of coloured veneers)

                            Badge does look a little suspect. Not quite as bad as the two cues that are badged/botched as JP superiors in my local rileys which are actually master cues.
