Identify Viking USA Cue with "Mandy" Inscribed

I bought a Viking cue online because of the name and would like to know more about it. It looks a lot older then what Viking Cue shows on their website or anything else I can find. I hope it isn't a fake Viking cue.

   It's a low-end newer-model Viking cue that the original owner, who I am guessing is named "Mandy", had personalized.

   I'm quite certain it's not a "fake".

   I can't ID the model for you until I can see a photo of the forearm.

   I paid $60 for it and one of those Vietnam cane sticks.

   Yeah, it's a very basic birds-eye maple Viking cue from somewhere between 1999 and 2010 I believe.

   Here's a similar design from 2013 - the Viking V101 cue - basically the same except a slightly smaller butt cap (but for all intents and purposes, including value, it's the same cue).

   

   This one's MSRP was $199 in 2013. Value used would be somewhere about half of that. I'd say you did just fine at $60.

   Amazing information.

   Thanks!

   I think "Mandy" is the original owner's name. It was common to have you name inscribed on your cue.
