May it play as well as it looks.

Looks great, fair play for taking the plunge!

I am also one of those who ordered and received an MKR cue a few years ago. Communication was not always easy as the cultural differences came into play a little. However, the cue is of surprisingly good quality and the specifications have been adhered to quite precisely.

Communication must have improved as there were only very minor "cultural differences" and order was very accurate

I'm happy to read that. Basically, I've been able to gain a lot of experience over the last few years because I find it very interesting to get cues from countries for which there are no actual sales channels. I first started with a Nagee cue from India.

Which thread is currently used at MKR for the mini-butt?

Addition: My MKR order is from 2020/2021.

All i can say is that i'm really happy with the cue. It plays amazingly, such an upgrade on my previous cue. It feels so true and stiff. The throw off on longer shots (due to my crap cueing) is definitely much less, I just need to learn to readjust my aim now for potting with side.
I'm confident that a cue with a similar spec from Thailand would have cost me double and I also have a more obscure brand. I know I wont have the resale/collector value, but this is a keeper so that does not bother me,
It was a gamble worth taking!

I am new to snooker and starting to play regularly (played when i was a late teen with cousin) and have seen an MKR classic cue on FB marketplace for $400AUD (200GBP) and wondering what sort of price you paid for the cue and how it is now a few months on.

I want to make sure I am not getting ripped off on the price and "less than double the cost of the most expensive cue on argos." is of little use to me lol



Appreciate any response/feedback

MKR sell his classic cue for 9000 PKR (i'll let you do your conversions) so i think that marketplace price is very high. I purchased direct from MKR a 1 piece custom cue, titanium ferrule, 2 extensions, hard case for approximately £290. Nearly £100 of that was delivery however but i can imagine it to be similar to you. The cue still looks beautiful and plays really well so no regrets.
If you want his direct whatsapp number so you can chat with him then just ask.

vBullettin (that TSF is based on) does not support "copy/paste" and "local-files"; did you see the instructions for a image-sharing loading on post #26 above?
