Used Pool Tables

Usually they're either one piece or THREE piece slate-if you can get a one piece in, IMHO they're usually better, but a 3 piece is MUCH easier to move, generally beeswax or similar is used to reseal the seams. A 3 piece will also probably need new felt after you move it. I've never heard of a 2 piece slate, maybe it's something new? I haven't been in that business for 20 years or so.
Done both!
Moved a single piece table with the help of 4 other guys and a flat bed seed truck. Being able to surround it was key.
I assembled a 3 piecer in a studio once and it is correct to assume the felt is sacrificial at that point. If you're going to move a table a new felt is part of the "ride" anyway. Enjoy...and don't be like Paul Neuman in that movie.

You don't deserve a pool table.

It's misogynist. Piper Laurie's character didn't need to commit suicide!

If you can check the table before its taken apart, check the cushions. Roll a cue ball into the cushion, it should have a good rebound. Check all sides.
Look at craigslist for an independant pooltable mover/installer. Call him up, sometimes they know people who want to get rid of a table, you may get a good deal like that.
