Advice on US table needed....

Hi all. I've owned a standard English pub pool table for some years now and have loved having it in my home. It has certainly helped me keep my game to a reasonable standard over the years. However, I recently spotted this used American pool table for sale online. It may be second hand but it looks absolutely stunning, wouldn't you agree? Also a bit pricey but I'd be willing to pay that kind of money for a table of, what looks to be, a remarkable standard. But to cut the chase, I know very little about American pool tables and was hoping I could get a few pointers from some of you fine folk from across the pond who frequent this forum. Is what I am looking at as good as it seems? Is it worth the money? What other things should I be taking into account when purchasing an American pool table as opposed to an English one (other than size, obviously). Any hints or tips would be greatly appreciated.

An even lower end arm of CL Bailey, I make them separate as many dealers try to market Fischerthem totally independently .
Looks wise they look to be top quality. Overall there is no reason to ever buy one. Poor quality throughout. For the same or less money than these new you can get a quality brand used table.

Agreed, that's why I asked their asking price, maybe it's like $250 lol
 
Thanks guys. Obviously not as good as it looked then. He was asking a lot more than $250 as well. Think I'll give this one a miss.
