Delivering your next big break
CUETUBE is a consumer-facing discovery platform showcasing distinctive, collectable and high-quality second-hand snooker and pool cues currently available from UK eBay sellers.
How CUETUBE works
Automated discovery
Search rules scan eBay UK for cues that are likely second-hand, handmade, hand-spliced, custom-built, vintage or collectable — produced by recognised brands and makers.
Confidence scoring
Each listing is scored 0–100 based on brand-name presence, item specifics, model names, descriptions and images. Only confident matches are attributed publicly.
Editorial control
Administrators review, verify and publish listings. Only administrator-verified cues are described as checked. Everything else is clearly marked as inferred or seller-stated.
CueTube classifications
Every cue is assessed against a structured set of attributes, so you can compare like-for-like and spot the details that matter — not just a title and a price.
Structured attributes
Discipline, construction, materials, dimensions, play characteristics, design, age and provenance, condition and accessories are captured for each cue, giving you a complete picture of what's on offer.
Multiple evidence sources
Values are drawn from eBay item specifics, the listing title, the seller's description and the item category, then enriched by AI inference where details are missing or unclear.
Confidence and review
Every value carries a confidence score and band — Confirmed, High, Medium, Low or Unknown. High-confidence values are auto-accepted, while lower-confidence values are flagged for administrator review before they're published.
Transparent provenance
Each classification shows where the value came from — an eBay aspect, AI inference, or administrator verification — so you can judge how much to trust it at a glance.
An important note on authenticity
CUETUBE is an independent discovery platform and is not affiliated with eBay or any cue brand. Brand identification is automated and confidence-scored. A brand-name match does not confirm authenticity — CUETUBE distinguishes between brands stated by the seller, inferred by the system, and verified by an administrator. Only administrator-verified listings use wording that suggests the cue's identity has been checked. Always review the original eBay listing before purchase.
