  • Help with info about RILEY Snooker cue?

    I am curious if anyone can tell me any info about this RILEY snooker cue?

    Are these RILEY cues of decent quality? Were they made in England? Any opinions on the value of the cue? Very new to Snooker cues, so trying to learn, and would hate to overpay for a cue. Thanks for any help with info, or opinions on the value of the cue. Thanks again.

    It's a cheap cue, machine spliced, from the 80s. I always see these at car boot sales and junk shops. I picked one up for a friend for 2 pounds with a case. It's trash, but he didn't have any money for a cue, and sticking a decent tip on made is better than a house cue.

      What's your budget for a cue? That would help people make recommendations.

          100 to 150 UK Pounds. Hopefully can get something decent for that price range? Does not need to be new. Quality is all I care about, and would want it to be all natural (no paint added, like Black paint to make it look like Ebony, for example). Thanks for any suggestions on good quality cues that I might be able to find in that price range.

            I have a Thai Master Cue which was in that price range. It is pretty decent, and I found it better quality than similarly priced cues. I got it from Green Baize, which I would recommend also. They have lots of Thai cues at different price levels. With the Master Cues, the Pro Butt and Millennium ranges should be in your price bracket

              Thank you very much for the info. I do love the look of this one, for example.
