**** This snooker table has been Taken by the people who are buying the house ,I think when they found out they could have it for Free it changed things .
Please keep checking into GCL Billiards for sale section there may be more tables for Free , but there are also tables for sale at very keen prices , Free tables are only available if there is a time limit for say a sale of a house and they have to move the table on very quick in order to exchange contracts as was the case with this table , but it turned around once the new owners found out the table was Free .
Most tables are priced between the £500 and £1500 price range but there are some that are in extremely good condition some are mint , please take a few moments to browse our for sale section , there is some very good tables for sale in there Direct from the seller with no middle men fees , if you fancy one then contact Geoff at GCL Billiards for a quote to move it .
The reason I leave all sold or moved on tables on the for sale section is to show other sellers that this web site will produce some success in getting people to look at the for sale section and follow a sale through .
and the main reason for that is , you are buying direct with no added commission fees , GCL Billiards may get some work out of the sale moving the table to a new owner, and it is this what we at GCL Billiards are interested in , not a cut of your sale .

FREE FREE FREE ! Yes FREE full size snooker table !
We have another client who wishes to dispose of a full size snooker table due to a House move
The table is a Thurston full size table circa 1910 /1920
I have worked on a couple of these style legged Thurston tables in the past two years and they are very solid framed tables with a very good thick welsh slate bed
I am actually working on one identical next week up in Clitheroe which was made out of Walnut rather than Mahogany .
This is a very good opportunity to acquire a table for FREE , the last two tables we have advertised for free where snapped up after a week of advertising them .
The owners wishes the table to go to a good home that is going to use it , rather than it be recycled for the building industry , which happens to most second hand tables these days regardless of the quality and heritage of the table as in this case .
Thurston where pioneers in the billiard and snooker trade , inventing many ground leading ways to improve on the design
and where credited to have been the first firm to have used slate beds in place of the then three section wood beds in around 1830 .
this table would be circa 1910 and will have a 5 section two inch thick welsh slate bed , a very heavy table to move so we would recommend that you get a quote from Geoff at GCL Billiards , for the removal and transportation and then erecting of the table to your home or premises .
We would require a post code for us to give an accurate quote and any information about the house or premises such as stairs or rough ground or soft ground such as gravel drives or grass or steps and stairs
the ideal location would be one where we reverse onto a drive and unload direct into ground floor premises without uneven ground or loose gravel or grass .
the time period of the house move is Before Christmas so I would expect that this table would have to be removed at the latest the second week of December , but we will keep in touch with the home owner just in case things take a sudden move which with house buying can happen very swiftly to avoid the sale not going through .
If no takers then this table will be recycled for scrap , and we as well as the owners would not like this to happen , the more tables we keep in circulation is good for the Snooker business so lets help keep this one intact .
so lets hope we can accommodate out Clients who are giving this table away free of charge with all accessories that are with it , if you are not ready for a table but require one then this may be the ideal table to get for free and sit on it in a dismantled state until the room is ready , it is a very good opportunity to acquire a good make table for Free.
