A professional doesn't get installed like a Pro-Am. It doesn't come mostly pre assembled like a Pro-Am if I remember right.

Give the job to an experienced hacker. The Professional does not come with the cloth on it. Let an authorised dealer handle it and watch what happens

My Professional install was horrible. Got it pretty good now, and will fully correct when recovering. It's more common to hear of bad installs than good with the 3 piece tables. One piece, is a simple fix if not installed correct, not so with 3 piece.

Now that is a really horrible install. Mine is great, fantastic actually in comparison to that.
Man that sucks!! If I lived in your neck of the woods, even though I am not a pro, I would fix that for you. Where is the pride in one’s work now a days?
Sorry to laugh but that is hilarious!
It looks to me like it was the first time they attempted to install a cloth that required gluing to the slate edge.
Did the rails on the professional come pre-assembled from Diamond?
Yes rail were covered. What pisses me off is the tech told me the cloth will tighten up after while. I looked at him and asked Promise?
The company I bought the table from gets a deposit and payment in full before delivering.
Most are joke and never learned from the right people. Take no pride in their work...and would not know a beautiful job if they saw one.

Sad that I was not surprised... My intentions were to get it redone if not satisfied. Sadder is the installer where I got from stopped being hands on..his relatives run the business. He was suppose to be a 1st class operator.
sorry too bad. lucky if it was just the cloth install you can have it fixed easily.
paying with a credit card within a month gives you lots of leverage.
but not coming back to fix it is the shittts.
one time i had a bad result with a business who wouldn't fix the problem. i told them i would picket and hire pickets with cameras filming every customer, in front of his business with signs until he did. he knew i meant it and caved in with money returned..

Pride is on back of the milk carton. LOST.
This table is probably manufactured in China! Or at least all the parts are and then shipped to the U.S. for assembly. It looks like an updated version of the GC4, with a touch of Metro decor added. If so, you can probably buy one in the Philippines at a fraction of the U.S. price. Maybe two to three grand over there.

Are you saying you are probably going to be able to purchase a knockoff GC7 in the PI for 2 or 3G? Or Brunswick actually drops the price in the PI?
I grew up in a room with about 17 GC's, every one of them had ball counters. My Anniversary has BC's.
Every Brunswick table that was manufactured in China was available at a bargain price compared to the price in America. I can remember when we were buying Brunswick Metro's here for $1,000 US brand new! These were not knockoffs either. All the big poolrooms had them at one time, and they were damn good tables. I'm not sure that is still the case now since the Chinese are pushing their own brands and not Brunswick. I suspect a new GC7 could be had here if you have the right connections. And you definitely would not be paying $12,500, maybe half that or less.
For all I know they would be sold out the back door just like we see with expensive running shoes that you can buy in the PI for peanuts compared to USA prices. In many cases the same Chinese factories are manufacturing high end goods with brand names, and also making the so called knockoffs.
On the other hand to get a Diamond table in the PI the price is prohibitive. I've only seen a few so far.

That is the ugliest sh!t I have ever seen in my life!!!!!! Clearly it was the first time they ever installed cloth. I cant believe they used duct tape. I think I would have Googled some videos while they were there and showed them how it was supposed to be done and how it should look, pretty much exactly opposite of what they did. Now I see why you complained so much about the crap set up you got, I'm sorry that you had to suffer that. I did a way better job on my GCI and I never intended to set up my own table or even know how to do it, I just couldn't find anyone in my area that was doing decent work. I figured rather than pay someone for shitty work I might as well see if I can Forrest Gump my way thru and end up with a better job because I actually cared about the finished product.
Same here
