Cue Kote Warning

Cue Kote Warning
[ Home ] [ Site Map ]

The new site is up, but still under construction.

NOTE: This cue has been sold but please read the warning information. If this can help you, use it. If not then disregard.

This note is being posted for public viewing in the hopes of helping someone to avoid the type of hassle & aggravation that I experienced with the Cue-Kote company. A company should not be allowed to treat their customers like this. As a pool enthusiast, you have the potential to have dealings with them for a pool cue purchase or some of the shaft treatment they sell. By reading the info here, maybe you can avoid further negative dealings.

I bought this cue from Wayne Nance of Cue Kote in Greensboro, NC. I am sorry to say this was a very negative transaction. The cue was mis-represented to me by saying the shaft was perfect. It's not perfect. The description said there was a "dent" in the butt plate which was really a chip (see photos below). The photo sent to me was wide angle which would not reveal the chip. When I phoned to ask for a return/refund, I was cussed. I was offered less than half of what it would cost to get the chip corrected. As for the shaft being conditioned, it was not as slick as the drops available for sale at billiard supply shops for under $10.00 retail.

I am currently making an attempt to find some Sail Kote (suggested by another pool player to be the same as cue kote) to see if it is as suggested. My findings will be posted here on this page when that information is available.

Note in an email sent to me:

"Howdy again, Good looking web site and I have had problems with cue kote also." C.K.

Another Note:

Hi Danny, I was brought to your website because of the negative remarks concerning CUEKOTE. A friend of mine and Wayne's showed me your site after doing a google search. I have known Wayne personally for 3-4 years now and have found him to be passionate about his coating and he also misrepresents the product because it can purchased off the shelf by anyone. The real name of the product is SAILKOTE and is manufactured by McClube for boating industry. I am sending this email because I want people to be treated fairly and I want them to know exactly what they are getting into when they deal with CUEKOTE. Anonymous source.
