I still think there were gold bars in the briefcase (Pulp Fiction).

Sounds like you're aware of a true George Balabushka cue's collector value. But really, collector value and playability are two different things. Not sure what's available in OZ, but I'm thinking you must have some damned skilled cue builders there, capable of making one to your taste in weight, balance, taper & tip size, etc...

Here's the guy who built my playing cue....I went with one of his traditional points with veneers cue, but there are players who really like his trademark Gothic styles..

After disappointing eye surgery, I've quit playing...but can't get myself to part with the case and cues...too many fun memories.

I'm sorry to hear about your eye surgery. Is there no hope for improvement?

Nope...but my spinal collapse, resulting in a fusion of my c3, c4, c5, and c6 vertebrae confirmed that my pool playing days are over. Lots of nerve damage..made me a cripple with a walker, and I was fortunate to have recovered that far.

It's crazy on the eyesight...it was cataract surgery. At an opthalmolgist visit a couple of weeks ago, with glasses, I tested 20-25 in one eye, 20-30 in the other. But after the surgery, I could no longer see "the spot" on the object ball...no clue why.
