Escrow
and Inspection Service....... $50.00 (add $10 for international escrow)
So many times in this internet industry you can find yourself
in a deal that you wish that you hadn't bought into, I have
been there myself. Customers call us up and we discuss
cues that they see on the internet, because everyone knows that
the internet is the cheapest way to buy cues. One of the
things that usually happens in internet buying is that you see
a far away picture or a vague description of the cue and you
are not really sure what you are buying. Our customers
ask us what we think of a cue and we cannot answer them from
a picture or description unless we have it our hands.
The service that Proficient Billiards offers involves the buyer
or seller contacting us (usually the buyer) and requesting an
inspection. Anyone who is trying to sell a cue that doesn't
have any problems or issues will have no problem having a 3rd
party look over the cue..... if the seller does, then
you have to ask yourself what kind of deal you are really in.
What we
