I have heard nothing but amazing things about Tony Glovers cues. I would love to purchase one in a distant future but how much would one of his cheapest cues go for?

If you keep your eyes open, can pick them up from £200 upwards. Have a look on fleabay. Very good cues you wont be disappointed. -
Well if they are that cheap maybe I will get one in the not so distant futureOriginally Posted by justf View Post
. I thought they would be upwards to 500-1000 pounds.

Me too. My cheap cue I got off ebay just isn't quite up to par with what I want. The ash wood just isn't good quality but I wasn't expecting a MW playing cue for 80 bucks.Originally Posted by Ramon View Post“Thus so wretched is man that he would weary even without any cause for weariness... and so frivolous is he that, though full of a thousand reasons for weariness, the least thing, such as playing billiards or hitting a ball, is sufficient enough to amuse him.” Mr. Blaise PascalComment

"you get what you pay for" don't agree with that statement whatsoever load of bull, especially when you can't split most of the top cue makers apart in terms of workmanship. for starters if you order a handmade John parris ultimate you are not getting a better cue then if you buy off a Trevor white, or Let's say stamford or tony glover. its just all about not over pricing their product when they don't need to unless stock prices have inflated of course. you stick the top 8 cue makers in a room and let them all make you a cue, no one would know who made what cue and whoever say they could tell is talking right out of their ar*e.Originally Posted by justf View Post
It's all about what suits each player, theres way to much of a stigma in terms of what cues cost and what's popular at the moment with all this buying cues Tripe.Last edited by Leo; 21 February 2015, 07:12 AM.Comment

What it boils down to is cue snobbery.Comment
