I'm looking for a cheap table to set-up in the garage. I have owned a Gold Crown that we sold when we moved and I know that Diamonds and Gold Crown are the top of the heap but I don't have the money for a GC right now. Looking on Craigslist, I'm seeing tables for $500 to 700 all day but I don't have experience with any of the off brands. Basically, I'm looking for the VW Bug of pool tables. Any advice would be helpful.
 
I just picked up a 9' Brunswick Medalist. Supposedly the home version of the GC. Instead of two piece side rails, its one piece. Plays as good as its set up from what I've heard. Mine plays solid with its origional cushions(1996?) and newer 860 Simonis.

You can find these usually for under $1000.
 
table

the big difference is the slate and frame sills.....the GC is a commercial table with a heavy duty frame...the GC has the medalist out weighed by about 200 pounds..

Don't buy a crappy table....all the other expenses are the same....
...delivering, set-up, cloth, balls..etc.

It's a buyer's market for Gold Crowns...and you got a table that's good
for a hundred years.

A poor man can't afford to buy cheap tools
 
My buddy has an older gold crown in his basement disassembled. He is looking to sell. But you would have to get it freight shipped from Mansfield, Ohio to you. No prob if no interest, just wanted to throw it out there.

I agree, keep looking on craigslist. Sad to say but rooms close down very often. Wait for a decent gold crown.
