Seems cheap for a lindrum

[DeanH]

My guess is he was made an offer and to beat dreaded fees sold it privately, happens all the time, just use ebay as a shop window
I always say if you are serious about a cue, don't just bid, get in touch, because a deal away from ebay is always sweeter financially for both parties

true, true

Could I ask the cue lads about these faked cues. Are they real badges , on the wrong cue, or is everything wrong, I'm just wondering who is making the badges ?, if it's well known cue makers why do they do it, as I'm sure they would be the first to complain if it happened to them, or are the badges churned out in Asia or somewhere like that.

Tonyt glover makes the badges, they cost about £30 (but if you're his best customer, I'm sure you could get them cheaper...).
Basically you take an unbadged hand spliced macmorran cue with the correct weight stamp (I have one here, it cost me £60), you add your badge and bob is your £300 Lindrum '29 uncle... nice profit eh?

Hi Mike, do you have any interest in the Walter lindrum 1929 cue, and prepared to make an offer?

I think the last time I saw one on ebay, was a few years ago, and it went for either £450 or £560, I can't remember which.
These original '29 Lindrums are highly prized, are mainly with the big collectors, and very rarely come up for auction.
