Does anyone have an idea what a 5x10 ar6100 Gold crown snooker table is worth in good condition? I didn't even know brunswick made them until recently, I am also curious if they used the same blue stone or brownstone slate as the ar6100 pool tables. I have taled to a few people about tradeing or buying but no one seems interested.

I am no mechanic but I can offer my experience as a snooker table owner.
You have the size of 5 x 10 working against you. Most home owners have barely enough room for a 4 1/2 x 9 hence all of the tournament 8's sold as well as regular 8 footers. Now looking at it the other way round if you can fit a 5 x 10 (I did) you can probably make a 6 x 12 work (that is what I have) and that is what a serious player wants. (I am not serious but is a greater challenge than a 5 x 10).
So you are in a quandry - too big and too small. Couple that with the popularity of snooker (lack of) and you have a tough sell. Eight ball and other games are great on a 5 x 10 but most often the larger pockets and smaller table are what people want to play on.
I paid $1,100 for a Centennial snooker table, went 600 miles to get it and paid for recover and set up by professionals and soon tired of the size having always wanted a 6 x 12.
I doubt you will get more than $500 for your 5 x 10 GC but you may be lucky and find a player that wnts that size as a 5 x 10 GC would be the second choice after a Centennial or Anniversary.

I am getting the feeling that that is the general consensis. Thank you for the input it is much appreciated. It's funny for a second I really thought had something, that should of been my first clue.
I wish you were in Denver.
I am looking for a Gold Crown 5x10 snooker. Of course I would have to sell my 5x10 POOL table to fit it. As it is a non descript unknown table there is zero interest in it. I would swap albatrosses with you. It will likely stay in my basement until the house is demolished as most mechanics will not want to move it LOL. A mechanic I talked to this week actually mentioned the possibility of moving it out with a sledge hammer which I am too sentimental to do. The pool gods would punish me! You will have to sell it or perhaps let it go locally as it is cost prohibitive to ship something that heavy. I bought my table in Topeka and that is the last table I will travel for! Good luck.
