Does anyone have any opinions on this cue? price I have been given is £89.95. Is this good/bad/not worth it? Any thoughts appreciated

the price tag matters nothing - it is how the cue feels......so try and test one before you can commit.
that said i love predator cues

apparantly this cue is RRP£170, not sure how true this is. Personally i would go and have a look at the cue myself (if possible) and then make your choice. Lots of places have pool tables so you can have a game with the cue that you want

i personally wouldn't buy that cue, they are quite cheap low quality cues..if thats your budget look in U.S for a cheap cue like a Fury cue better quality of cue and cheap too..but remember to add on customs and delivery from U.S.

That is an excellent price for the Riley Centurion, they are relaively new to the range and have not played with one but you can fit a Uni-Loc predator shaft on them at a later date if required.
£125.00 is Manufacturers RRP - I have just checked

I'm currently looking at these cues as well at the moment, as I'm looking to start fresh again and to have a cue stick that I can customize to my liking. I like the RCE-2 Centurion Model, with the maple grip, standard points in the forearm and reversed points in the butt sleeve  The only thing that I don't like about Riley/BCE cues is they all have the same problem, they don't have the brains to offer extra shafts for these cues, which means that if you want an extra shaft, you have to buy 2 cues which is a pain, but I guess that they have yet to grasp the concept of offering pool cues with 2 shafts instead of 1 Willie ----------------- If ya got 'em, smoke 'em [ This message was edited by: TheWizard on 2007-11-28 00:16 ]

BigDave How about adding these cues to the Pro Shop? , I imagine that at the right price, they would be a nice addition to the selection of cues that are already available, and would certainly be a nice change from having to look at predator cues Willie
