Purchase a craps table Casino grade

[Tidewaterterry]

I am looking for a 12-foot table just like the casino for practice a new table with custom felt is preferred.
Want to practice like I play. American table games look ok and also Casino salvage yard. Any suggestions
are appreciated. Thanks, Budget around $5000 give or take a little

There are quite a few GOOD used tables to be found out there in the $2500 - $3000 range if you're patient and shop around. I've bought and resold several through the years. Sometimes it's been because I was out looking for them. Other times it's been because they found me - as being in the position I'm in, sometimes players who, for whatever reason, call me when they need to get rid of a table due to financial issues, downsizing, divorce, or whatever. If the price is right, I'll sometimes buy the table myself and resell it. Alas, I don 't have anything at the moment, though.

If you are not already a member of any of the private craps groups on Facebook you should join several of the larger ones and put the word out that you're in the market. There are a lot of guys out there building tables that aren't that great. Others are fine for home use and practice, like the tables my buddy Kelly Knox over near Atlanta builds. If you've seen Ed Robinson's table on the YouTube channel "Roll 2 Win Craps" - that's one of Kelly's tables. American Table Games does do an excellent job. DarthNater is very happy with his table as well. You might chat with him about it. A lot of those "salvage" operations who "rebuild" tables in Vegas are really ripping players off. They buy those tables for nothing from the casinos. I've seen casinos clear them out for $600 - $800 each. Then they "rebuild" them by removing the old layout, giving them a good soak in Old English furniture polish, wiping them down, putting a new layout on they paid $99 for wholesale, then maybe use a vinyl $6.99 repair kit on any major tears in the top rail before pushing it out the door. They'll have maybe $1000 in it and they'll flip it for $4000 - $5000.

Personally I have had good luck with my American Table Games experience and table that I bought about 5 years ago. They will customize to meet your needs. I am sure there are other good companies as well.

Anyone ever use "Casino Salvage Yard"? Somewhat better prices and new tables for ok prices.

I've never heard of them.

I went with American Table Games...seems like the best deal for a custom table. Had to keep wifey happy too. lol

Good choice. They make a quality table and Dustin will work with you on every detail, including the layout, so that you get what you want.

Here's a thread I posted when I received mine and set it up.

Agree on American Table Games. Took longer than anticipated to get it but worth the wait. Have had mine for 5 years and still happy happy with it!
