So thanks to all you guys, I'm now the proud owner of a Gold Crown 3! Mark Gregory and crew came out today and got me all set up and recovered with Tournament Green Simonis 860. I'd like to thank all of yall who chimed in about holding off and waiting on the right table, as well as recommending...
Thanks to this forum, I now have 2 highly recommended mechanics in Georgia keeping an eye out for me! And on my way to Florida this weekend for vacation I'll be out stopping at a pool hall that has one for sale due to a brand changeover to Diamond. Wish me luck!
Agreed! I didn't think there would be many options in my area for a "good" Gold Crown but now that I've made it my main focus, I'm seeing a little more. Plus the fact that Mark Gregory will build me one of his for a little more than my initial budget has me thinking really hard about it!
So, I went home and measured the original game room for the table and its 14'2" x 21'9". I can squeeze an 8 footer in there and be ok. However, I still have the option to swap my home theater room for the game room since they're both side by side and on the same level. The theatre room is 17'11"...

Thanks guys! After doing a little research and talking to him on the phone, I now have a much better understanding of who he is and what he's all about!
I haven't measure the full room yet but I will as soon as I get home today. I did lay out the specs of an 8 footer on the floor and walk around it with my cue and I have plenty of clearance. OAN: I missed out by a few days on buying the floor model Diamond table at the same location that has the...
So, I did a quick search on him and got his website pulled up. Texted a quick message to the phone number listed at about 10am this morning and got an immediate reply! Ended up talking on the phone for half an hour about pool. He gave me some great advice and made a huge impression on me. I'm...
Thanks! I'm glad I haven't heard any negatives against the Connelly so far, with the exception of at the price I'm paying I could go up another grand and be in a Gold Crown.
