Forum Lurker	Hey all....first time poster here. I'm buying my first pool table, and am a bit overwhelmed by all the info out there! Here's what I know....I want: 8 ft. 1" slate - 3 pieces Cross sectioned braces underneath Metal screws screwed into metal fasteners - not the wood directly To not spend a fortune (like the $52,000 table I saw!!!) A ball return, but I hear they're more trouble than they're worth? So, I'm looking to spend about $2,000 including installation. Can you give me some help on what brands I should be looking at? My dad's had a Brunswick for about 30 years, and it's held up very well. The other brands I've seen are Spencer Marstens, AMF, Greenleaf? (pooltablesdirect.com). What else am I missing? Any direction would be appreciated... Thanks!

Junior Member	For $2000 you can buy a lot of pool table here. Look on craigslist and see what you have in your area.
