    Bought it nine months ago, has hardly used it and I'm guessing has packed in and wants rid. The game must have looked easy on the TV but reality hit home pretty quick.

    What a waste of a good table … have a dedicated snooker room and can’t even install proper snooker lights . Some people have more money than sense . 🙄

    What a ridiculous price for a stick of wood.

Their prices for standard production models went up to £400.

    I think the Buckingham is the best looking one they do but this one looks in very good condition. Also you can fit steel blocks straight to these if you fancy it.

    I'm not sure whether he is selling table No.8730 (1899) referenced in the accompanying workbook copy, or No.9073 (1901) which is mentioned in Peter Clare's letter. Either way, the table plate is inter-war (1920s 30s) which means that either the plate or the cushions themselves have been replaced at this later date.
