Hi Ady
Back on sale the muppet says his wife has left him and emptied the bank act?
Another one for the block list cockywatchman78
Yes I bid on one of them Omin cues
It's got to the point where no one will be importing from Omin.
The price rises out there mean it's pointless given the total lack of UK interest at the moment in Cue Sports.
The next 18 month's will be very hard on retailers, I know I will be running on very low stock levels from now on.
I have about 60 cues in stock and won't be adding to it this year unless someone ask's for a custom made cue.
It's a good job I have other irons in the fire

14th July 2008, 07:22 PM
yes its going to be tough - i never imagined i could sell a new o'min cue for £67 !!!
BITTER
14th July 2008, 07:30 PM
If it's the perfect it should be £130-150
I have a few Perfect, Climax. pro and Classic in stock.
I may as well hold on to them.
I can see a few large companies going under in the next year.
They have managed to survive the last 3 years on cheap imports, However with the cost of these imports increasing and the market shrinking they will be under presure.

yes 2 of them - 67 and 79 crazy. but thats life i guess. cancel the order for my new bentley.

maybe the fact chinese imports are going up in price is a good thing really so we can focus on our own UK made cues, which has suffered for years at the hands of cheaper imports, a swing back to Uk made quality items would be ideal ( not just with cues ) before we lose the remaining few we have.
Its the old problem not just in cues but across industry basically at the start importing is cheaper, our own uk industry's can't compete, they close, we rely in imports, imports prices go up, quality goes down but no other option but to keep buying " held to ransome " no other choice.
Plus the fact of sourcing good quality raw materials gets harder & more expensive, with the chinese buying most this up, again controlling prices.
I do believe there is always a market for good quality english made items and its up to us all to support them.
Getting to be a sad thread this as its true snooker halls, cue sports etc is in decline so maybe we can all do our bit to do something, the fact we have so many members on this forum shows the interest is still there.
Although maybe the country as a whole being on the brink of a recession makes it tough on everything across the board.
But enough from me what do i know all just my humble opinion for what its worth......
