OB 1 Warranty

OB Cues Product Warranty

OB Cues warrants, to the original purchaser, all OB Cues products to be free from defects in material and workmanship for the life of the product when purchased from an authorized OB Cues Dealer (PoolCuesToYou.com is an Authorized OB Cues Dr). Authorized OB Cues dealers are Direct Retail Dealers as well as Network Retail Dealers. Direct Retail Dealers are listed here on our website.  

Product Registration is required and should be completed at or near the time of purchase.  

In the event an OB Cues product needs repair or replacement, it must be returned with proper documentation to OB Cues for determination of warranty coverage. All warrantable issues will be repaired if possible. In those circumstances where the warrantable issue is not repairable, the product will be replaced. If the condition is not a warrantable issue, OB Cues will contact the owner with an estimate for repairs, or replacement. In the event OB Cues receives a package with no discernable contact, the package will be held until claimed. At that time, the item can be considered for determination of warranty coverage.

Things not covered by the OB Cues Warranty include, but are not limited to:

  •  
    • Damage due to abuse or neglect.
    • Damage caused by playing with an OB-1 Cue Shaft without the carbon fiber pad that is placed between the tip and the ferrule.
    • Custom joint work provided outside OB Cues to fit a Partial OB-1 cue shaft to a cue. When a Partial OB-1 cue shaft is the original purchase, then OB Cues will replace a defective cue shaft with another Partial OB-1 cue shaft.

 This is the sole warranty of OB Cues and no other warranties are either expressed or implied, in fact or by law. 

OB Cues liability is limited to the replacement of the OB Cues product. 

OB Cues shall not be liable for any consequential, special, incidental or punitive damages resulting from or caused by any failed OB Cues product.

 

Packaging suggestions:

If you need to return your cue or cue shaft to us for repairs or for a warranty issue, please consider the following recomendations for packaging.

 
1. Wrap your cue or cue shaft in either foam wrap or bubble wrap to protect it from bumps, dents, and scratches. Don't build up the wrapping so much that the cue or shaft is tight inside the box.
2. Please don't use the loose "popcorn" style packaging. It does not protect the cue or shaft, and it is MESSY!
3. Don't pack the cue or shaft "Tight" inside the box. Long narrow boxes or tubes are very often caught in the shipping machinery at the depot's and the boxes are slightly "Bent". If you cue shaft is tight, then it will be "Bent" too. If the cue shaft is properly padded, and still has room to move inside the box, then the box can bend a little and not bend the cue shaft or cue inside.
4. The best package is the triangular "Tube" offered by all the carriers. UPS and FedeX say that they are for Air shipment only, but we use them every day for ground shipments. The Post Office also offers these tubes.
5. ALWAYS include this form inside the package with your cue or cue shaft, even if you have talked to us and we are expecting your shipment. Failure to provide this information may result in your cue or cue shaft not being processed because we won't know who it belongs to.
6. UPS and FedeX include $100 insurance. You must purchase more if you want to be fully covered! It is cheap too.

To protect your investment, Predator Products offers a Limited Lifetime Warranty against manufacturing defects. If you ever experience a problem that you believe is covered under warranty, please call our customer service department at 1.888.314.4111 (international, +1.904.448.8748). Please note that this warranty does not cover problems resulting from warping or abuse.

This Limited Warranty does not apply to asserted defects resulting from:
    (a) normal wear and tear;
    (b) modification, misuse, abuse or improper maintenance or
    (c) accidents or exposure to extreme temperature or humidity that causes permanent damage.

  2. Limitation On Obligations. The obligations of Predator Products hereunder are limited to repair or replacement of any product found to be defective under this Limited Lifetime Warranty. In no event shall Predator Products be liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential damages, of any nature, or kind or for damages to or loss of property. THIS LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY IS THE SOLE WARRANTY OF PREDATOR CUES AND SHAFTS AND IS GIVEN IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR PURPOSE.

  5. Legal Remedies. Depending upon the state in which you reside, you may have additional remedies available under the applicable Commercial Code or Consumer Warranty laws.

Care Instructions

WARPAGE – FINISH. Wood will soak up moisture in wet climates and release moisture in dry climates. To prevent warpage or finish problems, store your cue in an environment that has a stable and consistent temperature with a humidity level of 40 to 45 percent.

ABUSE. Cues made of wood are not designed to withstand lateral pressure. Situations where a cue is leaned or propped up against a wall, dropped on the floor, bent excessively while playing, or hit on a table can damage the cue. We recommend protecting your cue with a hard case.

TIP DIAMETER: We do not recommend turning your shaft down. You can choose to turn your shaft, but any 3142 shaft turned below 12.25 mm, any Z2 shaft turned below 11.40 mm, and any Fat shaft turned below 12.70 mm will result in an automatic void of your warranty.

PHENOLIC TIP REPLACEMENT. If you want to replace your phenolic tip on your BK2 break cue or your Air jump cue, do not remove the black carbon fiber tip plate located under the brown phenolic tip; this will jeopardize the strength of your shaft and the warranty will be voided. Leave .020” of the brown phenolic before gluing on the replacement tip.

SHAFT MAINTENANCE. To clean your Predator shaft, use a towel slightly dampened with rubbing alcohol. After cleaning, use a leather burnisher or similar material to seal the shaft. Using a Carnuba wax may also help to seal the shaft and protect it from moisture damage. To avoid damage, do not sand the shaft; no abrasive is necessary. Do not expose the shaft to excessive moisture and do not steam it to remove dings. Do not use a water-based cleaner.

THE ORIGINAL UNI-LOC® JOINT. We recommend cleaning the Original Uni-Loc® quick-release joint when you first receive your cue and every six months thereafter. These joints are precision manufactured to exact tolerances and even a modest amount of dirt can create a problem. You can use a Q-Tip dipped in Isopropyl alcohol to clean the inside threads and bore of the shaft insert. Clean the joint pin and threads with alcohol and a clean rag. We recommend the use of joint protectors to help keep your joint clean and to protect it from damage.

FERRULE. Much of the shaft’s performance can be attributed to our ferrule design and composition. Due to the
performance enhancing material used for the ferrule, scratches may appear with use. In this case, we recommend sending your shaft to us or to an authorized Predator repair center for a clean up. Do not remove or change the ferrule or the warranty will be voided.

TIP. The Everest® tip comes on all Predator shafts. If tip replacement is needed, we recommend a medium-hard tip. For best results, we recommend that you send it to us or have an authorized Predator repair center do it on a lathe.

WRAP CLEANING. For leather and Leather Luxe™ wraps, use water to barely dampen a towel, wipe the wrap, and dry it immediately. Use Isopropyl alcohol for Irish Linen wraps.

PARTIAL SHAFTS: If the official Predator logo is not on your partial shaft, the Limited Lifetime Warranty is void.

PREDATOR CUSTOMER SERVICE. If you have any questions or need any maintenance work done on your Predator product, use our Contact Us form or call customer service at 1.888.314.4111 (international, +1.904.448.8748), or e-mail us at customerservice@predatorcues.com.
