parriscues status

[mr.fine]

i've ordered John Parris Paragon. the current status shows "processing"? anybody who ordered a John Parris before knows what this means? does that mean the cue is already in production stage?

[thai_son22]

no not in production stage. takes a long while

[Achamian]

Just making sure you know how long you might have to wait. Some people have waited literally years for their cue to be delivered.

It's not something I would do. Stephen Hendry won seven world championships with a standard production cue he picked out of a rack.

However, if you like lovely cues, like the ones John Parris makes, then fair enough. I would never tell anyone what to do with their money.

My Parris Classic took a couple of years and when it arrived I didn't want it , bought a VR in the meantime. The Classic has never been screwed together. I must get around to selling it

well it seems your in more luck then me anyway, i ordered a ultimate March 2020 and the status is still 'open' what it was when i ordered, not changed in over 2 years.
I reckon it might change next year or the year after to be finished in 2026 or so.

I waited 5 years 3 months when I ordered a 1pc ultimate. Think waiting times are over 7 years now for them.

Was it worth it, well no, because during that time I bought a few other cues and by the time it finally arrived I'd gotten used to a cue I was not prepared to try adapting to another cue.

Still have the JPU but it's just kept now as collectors item.

I'm ready to swap it with a VR v-spec if you are interested.

I already have a VR Ultimate Limited Edition no16 , best cue I ever owned by a country mile

[balkend]

I might sell the Classic , will post pics whenever I get the inclination

I ordered a Stirling cue and got it within 10 months. It’s the best cue I’ve every used and I’ve had a few. No deflection what so ever. Same with all cues you have to get used to it and preserve. Well
worth the wait in my eyes.

[Anthonyp]

Might order an ultimate and just forget about it until 10 years when it might be ready

Great reason for buying a better cue that comes in a couple of months, costs about the same or less and it's a better made cue with some quality accessories from Mike Wooldridge.
