What qualities or defects should I look for when buying a used table?

Let your wife choose the new cloth color. Get her invested in this deal so she doesn't want to back out. :thumbup:
 
For some odd reason she thinks she needs to replace her 17yr old vehicle that has 200k miles on it instead of getting me a new toy..... :sad: :shrug:
 
Good looking table. Unless you know someone who is a table mechanic you'll need to commission one to break it down, move it and set it back up. Personally, I always go with a new felt when a table is moved. You'll want a quality cloth like a Simons 860. I'm in the Boston area and it's about $400 to break down move and set up. Simonis is ~$300. So you're $2500 table is $3200 installed. If the balls are original then they're 70 years old. New quality balls are another 250-300. If the cues need new tips say another 100 for 4-6 cues to retip. Just a couple of caveats. Good luck
 
It turns out this is an 8 foot table. I'm looking for a 9 footer. So I will not be buying this table. If someone else is interested in it pm me and I can get you the contact info.
