Spotted on eBay

[Cue crafty]

Came across this SEAN PARKER cue on eBay, I remember years back now he used to customise cues and make some of his own. Originally used a badge with SAP , his initials I believe, so interesting that the seller uses the name SAP in his seller profile. The listing doesn't say made by me so just wondering if he is making the odd cue or badging up imports!?! Nice looking cue either way.

If anyone is interested in the SightRight system, this ad for one of their cues shows very clearly the fitting.

Just to be clear I am not the seller or have any link to the seller or SightRight - just knew that in the past some people have queried what "the fuss" is all about

That's similar to the mini aiming aid he gives for the ones who take coaching from him.

Orme & sons snooker table just listed on eBay.

I know nothing about these tables but must say it is stunning! What a beautiful table.

There seems to be a load of excessively expensive and some maybe questionable Parris cues on facebook marketplace recently. Do people really buy them???

Not just Parris but other cues as well. Some use FB Marketplace to show off their cue collection to see if anyone agree with the prices, been there for months but have intention to sell. Worst than ebay.

They use a heavy coat of resin on the rails to fill and hide the worm holes in the cheap Meranti hardwood they use.

Dead right ,Meranti is a fast growing wood that is not as hard as Sapele mahogany,so they use a hard resin type varnish ,this chips easy on the soft wood ,that’s why the cushions looked chipped and tatty after time especially around the pocket plates .Most quality tables have an oil finish that will wear a lot nicer and more natural.

Sometimes when I see how cheap these tables are these days I feel like asking the serious snooker players at my social
club to all chip in and get one .

Yes totally agree mate, even if four people said yes I would go for it and gift that to my local social. Funny old buggars don't like charity though so still no easy task! 🙄

I don't know what they coat the wood on the cushions with but they don't feel right to me on the star tables, it feels plasticy.

Their on about possibly fitting one down the club as a ‘match table’.

[Cue crafty]

They must have started rolling off and the Lego legs are probably starting to crack. 😊

Well well!! This is the first Star table I’ve ever seen pop up on EBay? I thought they just went straight onto the bonfire after a few years of wear…
