Should you buy a new or used pool table?

It's not as hard as buying a car, many dealers have lines of pool tables for sale. If you are buying a used pool table and just want to get a nice discount on the pool table you may want to buy a pool table that was installed new from a dealer recently or within the last 5 years, many used pool tables that are older have been moved several times and many pool table brands are not multiple move friendly meaning they have little problems develop each time they are moved. You also cannot tell if a pool table was moved by a professional pool table mover or someone who did not have experience, the latter can do a lot of damage to the pool table that can be hidden until it's been purchased and the cloth comes off.

One thing in the buyers favor at this time is the market is very soft in many areas of the US. The last decade has been good to pool table stores with home re-financing for game rooms skyrocketing. This is not the case now, prices for pool tables should be down by all sellers. If you are worried about quality you may want to stick with the top three brands, Brunswick, Olhausen and Connelly Billiards, this is only an option and we do not suggest making a decision based on this website.

The best thing about buying a used pool table is the fact that most of them were installed from a dealer and usually there is no damage or wear to a used pool table besides the felt wear. A pool table stays in good condition because it has no moving parts. One can really find some excellent deals on a used pool table if they have time and patience to do a little research about pool tables in advance. 

So take some time and look at a few used pool tables on the market today, compare to a few new pool tables in a retail store and decide whats right for you and your home. Hope this has helpt.

pool table dimensions / room size requirements for a standard 58" cue stick

It is very important, possibly one of the most important factors in choosing the size of pool table you wish to purchase, your room size and pool table dimensions!. When preparing your room for a pool table we suggest you do the following. These are common things we see when customers preparing for a pool table. 

Ensure your measurements are correct and tape out the pool table playfield size on the floor. (see playfield size below) 

Consider other furniture and room layout especially if you are getting a stationary object after the pool table such as a bar.

If your room is small keep in mind you may have to move small objects such as barstools and people while shooting and you can't move a stationary object once the pool table is installed but you can move non-stationary objects like small chairs at a bar.

We suggest considering the right size pool table for your room so the game is not cramped on all sides.

We also suggest being sure of your measurements before hanging a lamp or waiting for the pool table to be installed if you want the lamp to be centered perfectly over the pool table. One common thing that happens to customers is seeing the pool table frame set up and changing the position of the pool table at the last minute due to furniture ideas that develop or other obstacles that present themselves.

Finally we would like to say that it is very important to really think about your decision to buy a pool table if your room is too small. Cramped space up to 6 inches does not interfere with the pool table very much however when you get beyond that it makes the game of pool frustrating for many people and the desire to play may vanish.
