Condition Levels:

When listing your cue sports equipment, accuracy matters. Selecting the right condition helps buyers trust your listing and ensures your gear sells faster. From brand-new cues to well-loved tables, here’s how to describe your item clearly and confidently.

🟦 Excellent — Lightly Used

Barely played or handled, showing only minor surface marks.

  • Minimal cosmetic wear
  • Fully functional and smooth
  • No structural damage

Example: A cue with faint chalk residue or a case with light rub marks.

🟢 Very Good — Played and Loved

Shows regular signs of use but still performs beautifully.

  • Small scratches or finish wear
  • No performance issues
  • Strong overall condition

Example: A cue with dings from play or a rest bridge showing wear

🟠 Good — Reliable, with Character

Noticeable cosmetic wear, but everything works as it should.

  • Visible dents, fading, or repairs
  • Fully playable and solid

Example: A cue with finish wear or a table with worn felt.

🟡 Fair — Functional, Needs Some TLC

Usable but may need adjustments or light repair.

  • Minor warp, damage, or imbalance
  • Still playable

Example: A cue with slight warping or a case with torn lining.

🔴 Poor — Needs Repair

Functional issues are present, likely requiring restoration.
