The Meucci BMC Cue Crusher White Cue is built from curly maple with four ivory-colored points framed in green and blue veneers. It features silver and ivory splice rings above the wrap, accented with blue Paua Shell ovals joined by aluminum vertical lines, and large Paua Shell diamonds with green-stained maple ovals below the wrap. This cue comes with the Meucci Pro Shaft. Special Note – Actual Defects Shown BelowThis cue is offered at a discounted price due to two factory flaws: Abnormal inlay shape – the inlay appears to have been improperly recut, leaving part of the design distorted. Wrap material substitution – instead of using proper green/black speck linen, the factory stained white/black speck linen, resulting in uneven and blotchy green coloration at the top of the wrap. Despite these obvious cosmetic defects, Meucci’s current ownership declined to authorize a warranty return, replacement, or classification as a factory second. Therefore, we are passing these savings directly to our customers. Full Disclosure on Meucci Cues At Budget Billiards, we believe in full transparency about the products we sell. Here’s what you should know about Meucci Cues under the current ownership: Warranty Coverage: Meucci’s limited warranty covers only defects that affect the structural integrity or performance of the cue for a period of one year. Cosmetic imperfections, minor flaws, and warpage are not covered. Craftsmanship Notes: While Meucci cues like the FR-1 are crafted with high-quality materials, there have been reports of inconsistencies in craftsmanship. Recent models may sometimes exhibit cosmetic variations, such as differences in color saturation, minor inlay misalignments, or irregularities in finishing. Additionally, some cues have thicker-than-standard butt ends, making them incompatible with many cue cases. Variations in joint size have also been reported, which could impact the fit of future shaft replacements and may create points of weakness that are more susceptible to breakage under stress. "The aesthetic appeal of the cue is not covered by our manufacturer warranty, [...] and each dealer takes on the responsibility of moving the SKUs they purchase from us. Aesthetic variations do not impact the usability of the product."— Seth & Jeremy Return Policy We offer a 30-day return policy on this cue, allowing customers the opportunity to inspect it and return for any reason within this period, as long as it shows no signs of wear and remains in like-new condition.
