Value of an Orchid Pool Cue

I'm trying to find a value on my Orchid Cue and was wondering if you might have some insight. I acquired it, brand new, about 14 years ago. It's been used very sparsely and also with care, so its in excellent condition.

I am thinking of selling it and I'm just not sure what a fair asking price is?

Any help you can offer me would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Stephanie Ford

Does your Orchid cue have actual inlays or are they decals or something similar?

Orchid is a lower-end import cue (from Asia) owned by Ernie Chen of Falcon cues. Some had actual inlays, some just had decals. Both were still lower-end. The line was distributed in Canada by Palason Billiards, and the MSRP ranged from $84 CAD to $275 CAD around 2003-2004.

If you have the original invoice, or can remember the model... I can probably narrow that price a little, but in general, it's a cheap-ish cue... the same factories pump out so many of these under 100s of different names.

Anyway, hope that helps at least point you in the right direction.

P.S... I noticed you said you were from Dartmouth. Fun fact... this website is run out of Nova Scotia... (Beaverbank in the winter, and Tatamagouche in the summer). Small world!
