Hey guys. I am selling my craps table in two weeks. This table is fully decked out with everything on it and has been used for tons of stuff related to this website and my former website "goodshooter.com" .. I've had this table for about 4 or 5 years and I'm finally committed to selling it.

I'm asking $3,500 including everything except chips and dice, and $4,750 takes everything. The (Paulson) chips are $1.00 each if you purchase them all (there are 1,000+).. The non-Paulson chips, I will take $0.20 per non-Paulson providing that you purchase ALL of the chips on the table. There are roughly 1,000 Paulson chips that accompany this table, and the number of chips is what it should be for a table of this size (about 2,000 chips).

There is a working lock-box that is brand new that was purchased at the Gambler Supply store and installed. The keys have a nice custom tag that says "drop box keys" that was custom manufactured.

The sign/placard was also made custom and is very professional and matches the drop box keys.

I'm including the stick, the bowl, and five dice of your choosing from my dice collection.

You will need to arrange the labor to get the table out of the house safely. I can help you through the process, but basically you hire day laborers from Home Depot or near Star Nursery, and you get a truck that is long enough for a 14' craps table. You need a lot of guys, and I can't help because I have a bad back.

I really do wish that someone can take this off my hands without haggling. I have a ton of issues to deal with, and $4750 including the whole shooting match is a fair price. You're going to spend some money to get this thing moved to, but it's quite the conversation piece if you have the space in Vegas, you won't get a second chance to be the person to buy this very special table.

I am going to be available to allow someone to accept delivery on Saturday January 28th. I don't have a lot of time to fool around, unfortunately, so please be professional.

If you need help knowing what this table looks like and stuff, check out you tube, or the Wizard's most recent instructional craps videos.

I should advise that this is a table for someone with some space and who understands the commitment of a piece of furniture that is this large. This is expensive to move, and I'm not offering to help you move it. This is, generally, the largest craps table, not a small one. It's the same size as the largest craps tables in Vegas. The craps table is a genuine authentic Paulson craps table. It's not a cheapo. It's the real-deal.

Thanks in advance for any interest.

If I still lived in Vegas we'd be having a conversation. But since I don't, I'd suggest Craigslist. You may get some interest from other locals or actual casinos, especially if 3500 is a good deal relative to a new one. (I have no idea how much casino furniture costs, I've never been in the market.)

I'm pretty sure that new series of Wizard's crap videos was shot on this table, if anyone wants a look at it. Weren't you dealing on your table for those, Ahigh?

Why yes that is correct. This table has been the center of many of videos over the years in fact.

Out of respect to ahigh, that question should not be allowed to remain on his thread. You can try and re-post that question in the ntgl-ntek board that is still active. It will be his choice to acknowledge nonetheless.

Familes have been destroyed. Life savings / retirements wiped out. $10's of millions of dollars stolen. And we're just supposed to pretend it never happened when one of the co-conspirators decides to return to grift again?

This is going to follow him for the rest of his life. May as well just come clean already.

Absolutely not. But these hard and just questions are not on topic on THIS thread. I only know of one thread for ntgl/ntek discussion and think your questions can be posted there. Perhaps we can start another thread in some way as well.

Just trying to follow the forum rules and respectability of people.

Those questions do need some response for sure, but I don't think it's all on Ahigh.

Welcome back Aaron. Nice to see you.

I can confirm that this was indeed the table from my latest craps videos.

I've said this privately, but I'll buy all your chips at the stated price, if I don't have to buy the table.

I remember when I bought a slate pool table from a private party he told me who to call to have the table professionally taken apart, moved, and put back together in my rec room.

Presumably the same service would be available for this craps table, at least in Sin City.

Craigslist might not be the best place to sell his table. A lot of scam artists on that website. I remember a woman getting ripped off for $2000 when she Western Union wired her apartment payment that she found on Craigslist only to realize the "Owner" of the apartment was scamming her. She realized she got scammed when the owner thanked her for her money and didn't give her a room key or anything like that. She was suspicious but decided to give the "owner" the benefit of the doubt. When the "owner" contacted her again, she assumed it was going to be about a room key or something like that, which is reasonable to assume . The "owner" instead said,"My Mom is sick in the hospital. Can you give me money to pay her medical bills?" The victim was understandably upset and realized she had been played . She cussed the "owner" out and was never contacted again by the "owner". She was out $2000 and had to sleep in various hotels and had very little extra money to have fun.

When there was a presidential debate in Vegas I put an ad on Craiglist asking to buy tickets. Two people contacted me asking me to send a MoneyGram somewhere and then they would have their friend meet me to give me the tickets. When I suggested just giving the friend cash, they replied that they had a lot of other offers and it would take a MoneyGram to secure the deal. Suffice it to say I was suspicious.

The craps table is still for sale. I'm lowering the price to $2,000. I'm also offering delivery within 40 miles of my house for $300. However, I do need to sell rather quickly at this time.

This includes a brand-new lock box, a paddle, a stick, two pucks, and a wooden bowl.

If this doesn't sell @ 2K, I'm going to have to roll my sleeves up and take pics and put a no-reserve listing on E-bay. I would appreciate anyone shelling out the 2G's to get this thing off my hands. I hate doing work these days!

How much does this table weigh?

I bet if you offered to deliver it within 50 miles as part of the deal, you would get more interest. I know that is a lot of work and I am not saying I am a buyer (besides Southern Cal is a lot father away than 50 miles), but I bet you would get someone to go for it at a good price for you if you included delivery...you know how to move this thing based on getting it to your location. A lot of your target buyer audience would have no idea what is required and hesitate to pull the trigger as a result.

Also, I would include the chips at a good price as well. Your buyers are likely interested in a total deal and they aren't likely to spend $1,000 in addition on your Paulson chips...though I am sure they are worth that as a separate purchase. Discount the chips value to move the table. If you sold the table and the chips including delivery of both, I bet you find a buyer at $3,000ish...and if you need to sell it quickly, that is what it is going to take to move it. Just my humble opinion for whatever that is worth.

I don't know much about craps tables but often people are stuck with old pianos because the expense of moving them is more than they're worth. Such is the case with a dusty old piano in my mom's house.

Nevertheless, labor is cheap in Vegas. With a few illegal aliens working out of the Home Depot parking lot and a Ryder truck you can move it anywhere in Vegas. Moving expenses will run you no more than $500.

For $300 they will carry it to a new location by hand.

This craps table is well known by many on this forum.

I don't plan to list it on craigslist. I do appreciate the suggestion.

I'm not even sure that I want to let it go, but I'd rather it go to someone I know who knows the table or a friend of someone I know who knows the table and give someone a deal than to put in an extra 20 hours for an extra $500. IE: My time is very valuable, and I do have friends on here still the last time I checked.

It seems the furor about dice setting has been dying down, and perhaps with it the desire for private parties to purchase a real craps table to practice on.

So the target buyer is either a well-heeled dice setter wanting to perfect his grip and throw under real table conditions, or someone wanting to run a game out of his house.

Pretty small pool of prospects.

Good luck with the sale.

This triggered me. We are all immigrants! And we are all undocumented (unless you're Native American)!!! Your white privilege is showing. The proper term is human.




But yes, the humans who frequent Home Depot parking lots would probably help move it for $10/hour each, possibly less. If you're lucky, might even be able to train one to be your own personal stickman and another 1 or 2 to be base dealers.....now all you need is a couple players, and you're good--start raking in the dough.



I know someone who has shown an interest in purchasing a craps table. I'll give him a shoutin' and see if he's interested.

I don't know much about craps tables but often people are stuck with old pianos because the expense of moving them is more than they're worth. .



25 years ago I bought a piano at an auction
for $1. Nobody else bid, and I found out why.
It weighed a thousand pounds. Luckily I found
somebody at the same auction who paid me
a dollar for it and I was saved.

Piano's and craps table, purchase by the pound
only.

I know someone who has shown an interest in purchasing a craps table. I'll give him a shoutin' and see if he's interested.



I would appreciate it if you did and thank you.
