Buying a New Table

There are many competing manufacturers and distributors for tables in the UK. If you want a top-end table, it is advisable to get one of the ITSF (International Table Soccer Federation - www.table-soccer.org) certified tables.

Tables can come with or without coin mechanisms.

Of the ten ITSF certified tables, not all have UK distributors. Tables generally available in the UK include: (price in brackets is approximate, and doesn't include VAT or delivery).

Buying a second hand table

Tables often come up on the Britfoos Forum: see http://forum.britfoos.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=5

It's often worth asking in that section too, especially if you're looking for something which may not still be in production.

Various tables come up on eBay, and should exercise the same caution when purchasing there as you would any other second hand item.

Boris Atha's guide on eBay is essential reading. See: http://reviews.ebay.co.uk/Football-Tables-A-Pro-Player-apos-s-Recommenda...
