Pool Table: Olhausen or Joseph Vitalie??

I don't know too much about pool tables, so I thought I would ask for help. I am looking at 2 tables: a 9 ft. Olhausen Wentworth, or a 9 ft Joseph Vitalie. Each are about $6000. I like the looks of the Vitalie, but I heard the Olhausen plays better. I am not a Pro, so I don't know if I would know the difference. Any experience with either of these manufacturers, or any advice would be appreciated.
 
Or, you could get the gold standard of the idustry, a Diamond table. I am sure they can make the pockets play easier for a non serious player. It is a nice looking table, and if you start to take the game more seriously, you will wish that you had gotten a Diamond.

Did I mention it is less expensive than the tables you are looking at? And has much better construction?

I don't like the way the Vitalies play , and they have no resale value. I imagine you are looking at looks over playability if your looking in that price range , if your looking for playability then you have to go with a Diamond or Gold Crown.
 
I looked at the Diamond tables before, and I think the Arkansas model was OK looking, but not great. My wife really likes the looks of the Joseph Vitalie Pasha II. I just don't know anything about Vitalie. People say Olhausen is a good table. Just don't know how much bargaining power there is with these things.
