Do you know if it’s a manufacturing plant? Or a distribution center. If a plant, do you know what they make?
Never been inside but have been told by more than a couple its basically an assembly facility. I know on the GC 5's and 6's only the pockets and return gulleys are made here. Rest comes from China. Not sure about slate, was Brazil but could be China now. They became mostly an assembler around '76 when the GC3's came out.Do you know if it’s a manufacturing plant? Or a distribution center.

I bet the $$$ ends up out-of-country though. I could be wrong...I've been wrong before.

I tend to agree but its virtually impossible not to buy some things marked " Made in China". So much of our daily stuff is made there.China is a country run by thieves.
I do my best to avoid purchasing any of their stuff, good or bad quality.
When I worked for CAT, we got hosed to the tune of $800M by purchasing a company that lied about its assets. Everyone but the top brass had to work a year or two without raises to offset the loss.
I don't feel bad for anyone who deals with them if they lose money. Greed goes both ways and they are the kings of it. The last thing invented in China was gunpowder yet somehow everyone owes them money.
I wonder if the world is planning on reneging on their debts and that is why they're inflating their covid-19 deaths. I heard an interview last week with a US politician. He mentioned the .gov planning on hitting up China for reparations due to the virus.
I guess you could say all B'wicks are Yalin's but not all Yalin's are B'wicks. Or something like that. Yalin is a BIG outfit. Can produce over 20,000 tables/yr.Yalin and Brunswick are both running full page ads in the July issue of Billiard Digest.
Good luck with that . China is suffering from recession now too.China is a country run by thieves.
