Beware of hobbiest cue makers

[Brianwalter]

+100!!! Nicely spotted! Could buy used Mastercue for 150 (or even less)... and 8 boxes of baby milk!

Your right and they would have been better quality than jims! As i said to some people not alot but 10 is my money that i shouldnt of lost and as for taking it up with ebay read my posts jim could off done it as pay a friend payment then i wouldnt of lost money jus like i did when i paid him i work hard for my money for it to get taken away when it doesnt have to!

[Brianwalter]

Worried about £10 for your kid but buying a £230 cue? Come on mate.

Did i say i was worried no i was just stating what it could buy as i lost it simply because jim wanted to be a dick

[Brianwalter]

you need to take that up with paypal (ebay) as jim wont have seen that money either, he will have refunded you the full amount he recieved through paypal. Its the price you pay for using thier service as something safer than paying cash or bank transfer

FRIENDS PAYMENT ON PAYPAL MEANS YOU DONT GET CHARGED FOR USING THERE SERVICE THATS HOW I PAID JIM HE GOT THR FULL 230 so why shouldnt i get it back

[Brianwalter]

All quick to defend jim its simple his cue was poor quality for money and he was nothing but rude to me because i wanted my money back end of the conversation ive made my point it wasnt one of use who lost money it was me i jus wanted to let people know how i was treated simply for puting a cue back that was poor quality!

You also paid for a delivery service which you received mate.

Imagine what you could have done with your time instead of responding to all these posts and defending your point? Switched your utilities provider, get a balance transfer deal on a credit card, or shop around for best deals on nappies and wipes. All would save you more than a tenner. As I have previously said £10 is very cheap to learn a lesson about how you prefer to buy items. What are you getting from holding on so tightly to this issue?

Perhaps write one last post with advice for others from your perspective and commit to leaving this thread there.

Life is an echo. Your posts on here are rude and aggressive, perhaps Jim was rude and aggressive in response?

You've came on here and slaughtered a guy who makes 100% handmade cues, one of very, very few and who charges not a lot for that. Is your craftsman cue 100% handmade?

Now it's £10s for nappies, do you expect anyone to have any sympathy with that?

Am sure you're a good guy, it went wrong and it cost you a tenner, it's happened to is all at times, suck it up and move on.

Had every right to slaughter him ive said what i needed to! Jim was rude 1st people not getting that im sure most of his cues are good quality but mine wasnt for price he asked he should of saud sorry refundec me and that would of been end of the mater i would of said nothing more about it!

I tried really hard not to say this, but I just can't have it. If you need ten pound for nappies for your bairn, don't spend £230 on a bloody snooker cue, as 1 you can't afford it and you would have 23 times the amount of money to spend on your kid or kids. You have every right to complain about the service you got and you have done that, you feel Jim was rude( as far as I can tell it's not really the cue ,as we know even the top makers can't get this right all the time,it's how the transaction went when returning it that has got your back up) but please don't say ten pounds is the difference between your kid having a decent time of it or not, as if that's true don't buy snooker cues that cost over two hundred pounds, this point devalues your argument. Personally I think Jim should have sent the money the same way you did, it's only fair, but I'm guessing he just yanked your chain a wee bit as things got out of hand.

I hope he carries on posting, he's doing great at confirming that 'baw bag' reputation.

Any spotting the inconsistencies yet?..
“would have put up with the cue is it was straight” – It is straight, I’ve played with it…
"has been nothing but nice" - while threatening someone with the police...
"can spend £230 on a cue" - but worries about £10 for his son's nappies...
“paid £230 for the cue” – forgets to mention this is delivered, with mini butt…
I’m sure there’s more but if I read another post of him saying exactly the same again I’ll go insane.

Complete baw bag!

I don't think he intended the baby milk comment the way many of us have read and interpreted it. I think he would take it back if he could as I believe/hope he has his priorities in order so wouldn't be dipping so deep in to his pockets for a cue if he couldn't afford to. ( I type this with a three week old baby asleep on my chest and no cues having arrived for the last month or two and no intentions to other than the cue I have on order)

I just feel that this chap is happy to be a victim and this is habitual behaviour for a person who regularly receives unacceptable products and service.

It may not be the rest of the world that has the issues Brian.

Yep muck, had a letter yesterday to say that the courts will pass on the monies as they get it. £1 a week will only take five years

On a happier note congrats on your new edition Stupree, is the new cue on order for him/her ? You have to start them young nowadays.
