GCI or Olhausen Grand Champion.

Depends on what you think makes a "better" table. From an installation standpoint, Olhausen all the way. The GCI blinds are a PAIN to put on and get them to stay on. Olhausen install is very straight-forward.
From a playing standpoint, it also depends on what you like. The Olhausen will probably reject more balls because of the angle and shelf of the pockets. If you like a slightly more challenging table, I like the Olhausen. If you're a more traditionalist, GC all the way. Great tables in their day and there's a reason there's still so many old Gold Crown fans.
If money is an issue, I think you could get a GCI a little better price than a Grand Champion. Both tables tend to hold value pretty well though.
If you want my REAL opinioin though in that style of table....Diamond Professional

PS. And they're not that old, built within the last 3 years I think, they've been in storage for the last year or so.
