Fascinating hobby.
Re pool cues: I grew up following the career of a wonderful player Luther Lassiter who shot pool in my hometown (Norfolk, VA). His Balabushka cue came up in recent years on eBay with an asking price of $60,000. Just too many zeros for this kid. In the next life I won't drop out of Columbia U. business school to pursue a career as a lawyer with the federal gov't.
