I always said the silver ones where low quality wood , why hide good wood with silver paint , it was only done for the TV tables .

Two long side frame and two end frame parts 8 brass hooks are also supplied with the table to bolt through these parts  , you can spray the arch part silver is you wish , but I prefer them all wood.

inner muntin and cross frame parts


Frame and cushion bolts all present and correct

Long Tackle triangle and balls complete the package , there is also a Scoreboard and lighting shade and silver dust cover .

Please note the table has no Bed cloth but it re-quires a new cloth so this has been taken into account in the for sale price of just £350 .

Above photo , The table will look like this identical table that we moved only this week , although the table being sold has lighter woodwork that shows the grain much better than this dark Mahogany one

 

if you sprayed the legs with halfords silver paint and also the Buttons slide in panels and trim parts as pictured , then sealed with clear spray on lacquer , you could have something that looked like this table
all snooker table assembled photo’s are Library photo’s please look at the parts photo’s for the actual shade of wood colour ,and the actual table  that is for sale , it is more of a mid shade Mahogany than Dark .
the Dark ones do not show the natural beauty of the wood grain .
If it was my table I would leave it as it is and just wax it , and buff it up .

Sold for just £4oo                      TABLE IS NOW    SOLD SOLD SOLD ! as of May 17th 2015

Price with all accessories    NOW REDUCED £500 ONO

We have a new Client who wishes to sell a nice modern Riley Genuine 3/4 sized snooker table
This leg design was introduced around the 1980’s , I think it was called the Aristocrat all though it is nothing like the more modern Aristocrat of later years.
I have worked on this design of table in the past , and it has a unique toe piece cover at the base of each leg which is sprayed gold .
This toe piece cover hides unsightly packing pieces that the Billiard fitter place’s under each leg to level the table , the round packing pieces are called Toe pieces hence the name Toe piece cover.
this cover slides upwards into a routed recess within the leg and slides down to the carpet or floor to give the table a much neater appearance .
I am sorry that we only have j.peg photo’s of the table at the moment , my client is going to send larger photo’s later , but I thought being as it is a 9ft and the sought after size I would get it listed as soon as possible.
9ft tables sell more quickly than full sized tables due to so many full size tables around for disposal and too few people requiring them and most people do not have room for one , but the 9ft and sometimes a 10ft are in more demand
therefore they do not stay advertised long , I expect this table to sell very quickly . So be quick if you require a quality made table like this one .

Cloth may require a re-cover but this is down to any buyer if he needs it .

The table photo from a side view , this table would be light mahogany wood.

The sale of this table includes all the accessories you see on display , including an iron and Brush

the table comes complete with a free standing cue rack with all the cue’s

This is the scoreboard that is with the Table

the whole table , I have been informed that this table is a 5 section slate bed just like a full size table , normally 9ft tables have a three section slate
This makes the table ideal for an upstairs location as each section of slate weighs much less than a three section slate .

The table may require a re-cover ( buyers choice) and the wood looks a little faded at the window end , but at just £700 the seller has taken these things into account

this table when new would have been around £3000 fittted
Please note this table is made from Quality wood and slate , more modern tables made today are sourced from China and do not have the build Quality of this table both in materials used and quality of craftsmanship.
therefore we ask do not compere it with these lower Quality tables made in china , this table is a genuine Riley made in the UK .

Buyer is responsible for the removal of the table after payment , ( contact GCL billiards for a professional quote)

If  anyone is interested in the 9ft snooker table please contact Geoff at GCL Billiards
if you would like a price for collection delivery and set back up , then also contact Geoff at GCL billiards
