Title: Pool Table Post by: Asher on Tuesday, December 6, 2005, 10:28:17 Anyone on here ever bought one? Moving to a new place on friday with two massive lounges, one will obviously be a lounge but the other will be a pool room. Have about £500 to spend but not sure where to buy from. Has to look the part ie no crappy legs. If anyone has any ideas please let me know.
Title: Pool Table Post by: mattboyslim on Tuesday, December 6, 2005, 10:38:38 My mate somehow blagged one at a fair price from the winner of a pro pool comp at Gangstas, obviously the guy was a pro and already has a table so was happy to sell. The biggest problem at that price will be the cloth I guess, if it's shot it's lots to re-cover, For that money you'll struggle to get a pub style one in anythig other than average second hand condition I'd have thought. Ebay seems a decent place to start, or try and find out about pubs that are shutting down and get one that way.

Or with your investment record, just buy a pub :D - the Merlin would be a good one.... Title: Pool Table Post by: Asher on Tuesday, December 6, 2005, 11:01:37 HA HA ID LOVE A PUB!!!
Title: Pool Table Post by: Northern Red on Tuesday, December 6, 2005, 11:03:05 Quote from: "Asher" HA HA ID LOVE A PUB!!! Fancy financing my venture to open one in Carrick? The Army have just announced that Carrick will become a super garrison with an additional 14,000 troops to be posted there 14,000 troops will drink a hell of a lot :D Title: Pool Table Post by: Asher on Tuesday, December 6, 2005, 11:05:39 thats a grand idea however im not in any position to invest in a pub at the moment, how much is it tho?
Title: Pool Table Post by: Northern Red on Tuesday, December 6, 2005, 11:08:38 freehold no ties about £395k
Leasing of course is a lot different.... (12k set-up, 10k lease) Title: Pool Table Post by: mattboyslim on Tuesday, December 6, 2005, 11:08:47 By Carrick, i assume you mean Catterick? unless fans of Spurs star Michael Carrick have formed their own mini-state named in their heroes honour and are commissioning 14,000 troops to guard it.
Title: Pool Table Post by: Asher on Tuesday, December 6, 2005, 11:11:43 whats the turnover on 395 investment, rather large pub I take it?
