WOW!!! Look at the detailing on the Joint Protectors for goodness sakes, and I love the "Romeo" and "Juliet" theme - I'm a sucker for matched pairs!

I have seen alot of cue sticks in my time, especally collector cues and they are definitely worth quite abit more then their price tag on there, esp with the amount of work involved with the inlays og gold, ivory and ebony The theme for the cues is perfectly suited and whoever the lucky rich guy is that has the money to burn on those little strokers, they're gonna be very happy collectors indeed Also, I gotta say that the style and artwork of those cues, shows that the maker of the cues has got good taste in design and craftsmanship Very nice find Bruno , but I'm skint, oh well Take care everyone Willie

Pretty cues for sure. For some real strange reason that I can't fathom, Bill McDaniel cues are just not popular with the high end collectors. He makes a great cue but his high end stuff hasn't been accepted by the majority of collectors. The resale value is lower than the purchase price (at the moment). So when you are talking Szamboti/Balabushka money for a couple of McDaniel cues, it all adds up to a no sale. Best thing this guy could do is offer them in trade, I doubt anyone would stump up that kind of cash for these.

If I were buying, between $12k - $15k wouldn't be far off market value.
