Glover case
I bought a Glover case about 7 years ago .cost £250.00. The quality is top draw. A couple of months ago i decided to give it a bit of an overhaul and rang up Glover cues to get replacement hinges as they had slightly tarnished over the years. Spoke to Tony's Dad who is a top bloke and he used to make the cases but due to his age he is unable to stand all day and make them .Anyway he sent me replacement hinges he found for nothing.As i said top bloke and had a really nice chat with him.
Stamford cases look really good.Not sure who else makes to that quality.Just need to look at the Pros he is making for.Still trying to pot as many balls as i can !

I have a black 1 piece leather one bought years ago, quality is top draw and built like a tank you don't have to worry about rough handling.

Sold mine to a guy on this Forum . But he doesn't use it as it's too heavy .
Feel a bit bad that he is not using it , but did say that it was heavy .
I just used to throw it in the car and did not carry it far . But one piece case was too big with 3 of us and cues . So i bought a Crispian Jones case .
Both top quality cases .Still trying to pot as many balls as i can !

I used it as a storage for my spare cues until just 2 weeks back when a forum member saw it on my FB.
He is also looking for a Glover Case, thus i sold him the case with the old Tony Glover cue.
He is very happy with the cue & case.
I had also just ordered a Crispian Jones case, and i should be ready by monday.
Great guy to deal with.
Outstanding quality case too.
