Slate Bumper Pool
Should I buy this pool table?
I have the option to buy this 8' , 3/4" solid slate pool table, already in my house. My friend is asking $150.00 for it. It needs felting & possibly bumpers. It has a few minor bumps and scratches on the wood, but pretty solid. No leg levelers.
What do you all think?
Brand is: Fischer, never had levelers.
I would probably go for the deal. If you would like to keep the table the price seems to be fair. You will have probably 4 to 5 hundred dollars in it once you have it refurbished. Not a bad price to pay for an 8 foot fischer table , and without the hassle of moving it. You may want to have someone that knows about pool tables come over and do an inspection on it , just to be on the safe side but I think you'll be just fine. Leg levelers are not necessary, when they come to redo the table they will use thin wood shims to level it up. If your ambitious and want to save a bunch of money you can refelt the table yourself. Go to refelting.com and they will guide you through it step by step. If you don't think you can handle it , thats cool too. Either way , get the best cloth that you can afford. A good cloth like Simonis will last a long time with proper care and it plays much better than any of the cheaper brands. Always brush it down and cover it up after every session. Good luck to ya!
