    Do shimmed pockets play funny?

    I’m looking for a Gold Crown and recently came across a GC3 with shimmed pockets. The shimming material seemed very hard when compared to the rubber. I felt like it would create a lot of rattling? but I’ve never played with shimmed pockets. Other than that the table and cloth looked to be in...

    What Gold Crown is this?

    I also believe the GC III wood is stained “rosewood” while the GC IV is stained “mahogany.” Thanks everyone with their help. I’ve lost faith in this dealer; whether he’s just ignorant or tried to pull a fast one. He also said he replaced the rubbers and put on new cloth; which I now don’t trust...

    What Gold Crown is this?

    I’ve been looking for a Gold Crown and recently contacted a dealer who said he had two Gold Crown IVs. He sent me the attached pictures but I don’t think it’s a IV. I just wanted to confirm with you guys before I let him know.

    Simonis not available, alternative choices?

    https://mrbilliard.com/ I’m based in Toronto/GTA area. I tried asking around for a trusted table mechanic but came up short. The one guy (Paul Clutterback) who was mentioned a couple times is retired. I’m open to alternatives. Maybe I’ll have another look.

    Simonis not available, alternative choices?

    Thanks for the heads up. Does the fuller picture make more sense? They quoted me $760 to relocate and install the table (1.5 hour drive) $298 for the rubbers $440 labour for the rubbers (3 working days offsite) $519 for the 3030 cloth (I assumed that includes install) I’m not to familiar how...

    Simonis not available, alternative choices?

    Okay thanks for the heads up. I’ll do some more digging. What colour did you end up going with? I’m leaning towards electric blue (vs euro blue) as I think it’s similar to Simonis tournament blue.

    Pictures of Ball-return Mounting on Gold Crowns

    I'm looking for pictures of how the the ball-return end (where the balls collect) on Gold Crowns (ideally GC IV) is mounted to the table. I'm looking at a used GC4 and it seems like like they added a metal bracket to one side of the ball return (or there is one missing on the other other side)...
