I'm on the fence. Money is not the issue, I'm just wanting to make the best decision. Thoughts?
 
I feel like I'm going to encounter Diamond tables a lot more often when I'm out and about and not playing on my own table, which is one reason I went with a Diamond.
Maintaining the tables is another factor to consider. Leveling and re-covering is quite a bit better on the Diamond. I feel like they're better built and a bit simpler to maintain and re-cover. Especially if you only have 1 piece of slate.

New ProAm … long rails are 1 piece … that helps.. already aligned.
$11,000 price go up ? My feelings are always buy new if the money is there. New is new. It’s never a mistake.
 
I think I'll stick with the brand-new 9' Diamond Pro-Am with the new color finish and matching light. Wanted the one-piece slate but unless I can provide a crane to get it upstairs, I'm having to do the 3-piece. I'm not too concerned about that. With the right mechanic, I should be fine. It has been on order for a few weeks now but the delivery time was a bit vague at 6-9 months. I sold my Olhausen for very close to my purchase price so happy about that.
 
Finally done.

NEW means that you get to use it 1st... that's all it means....

Like luggage. It's new until you fly with it one time. As for being the 1st to use it. ... I like to be the first to put fingerprints on anything.
