BEST 7 FOOT TABLE FOR HOME USE

[iusedtoberich]

They were just selling them for $6000 used at the expo I believe. That’s just silly. I wish I would have bought mine at the expo like 10 years a go when a friend did. He got a table with almost new cloth , the diamond light new in a box , a set of super aramith pro’s delivered for $3250 lol.

Btw the gentlemen I bought my diamond from is the one that told me he gets 5k to $5500 if they are used and they always sells quick

Used from the Expo for 6k is about the same as new though, as far as the buying experience and condition. It's fresh from the factory with only one week's play under their belt. The cloth has not even lost its slide. And factory or factory authorized installers, and immediate delivery. That's quite a bit different than buying someone's personal 5 year old diamond in their basement for 6k. Its more like buying last year's car model from the dealer lot that had 500 miles in test drives on it for a 12.5% discount.

Anyway, its minutia. Good discussion though.

I will never understand the love for diamond. They play terrible. Like pinball on ice!
ask a dozen top pros quietly off the record which tables they prefer…diamond will not be the answer more than 25%

I've heard the opposite from the ones I've asked but I was asking about 9ft tables. They suggested either Diamond or Rasson

For every 1 person that dislikes diamond you’ll find 1000 that love them lol there isn’t a 7 foot table being made that plays as tough as a diamond. Now 9 footer I would be fine spending 2 grand on an old crown. Great tables. Play tough and still look iconic.

I got nothing against an older GC but they just aren't available around here. If you do find one it's 12 hours away and they want 4 grand, then you still need to do new cloth and have the subrails modified if you want tighter pockets.

I'm constantly on the look out for one at a reasonable price that's not 12 hours away.

Diamond, tight pockets, if you shoot well on it you’ll shoot better on any other table!!

I would get a diamond professional. Gold crown look with all new wood.
