Help, Buying a Tornado table...
« on: January 05, 2008, 02:58:25 PM »
Hi all,
 I am new here and just wanted to say hey to everyone.
I am in the process of looking for another table. I have owned a cyclone II but after playing in my local tournaments for a little bit i realized the table wasn’t near the same.  I am wondering if there is a difference in the coin-op and the t-2000 non coin-op.. Should i just stick to gettin the coin-op or they just the same.. also I've heard that I should look for a table made in the late 90's to the early 2000's cause those tables were made in a different factory.. is this true or just bs..
Thanks for the help..

this is a direct quote from the othe table buying question above..it address some stuff from the other post you don't ask but it will give you what you need...

we have gotten the table question many times now since I have been on the board...I will create a document which I will make available to people but for now, read the thread below on the front page entitled

thinking of buying a table t2000 F5? « 1 2 3 »

This covers most of it.  Stop what you are doing and slow down.  Lets think through this and get you the right table before you make a decsicion.

The person quoting prices doesn't know what they are talking about.  Nobody, and I mean nobody maybe ever, has paid $1700 for a new T2000 home or coin-op model Tornado.  That is just a book price.  Yes, buy Tornado, but not like that.  If you are willing to spend $850 on a Cyclone, just pay a little more and get a Tornado coin-op that can last you the rest of your life literally.

As always, feel free to contact me if you want to talk through details there are quite a few things to consider but once you work through those details, you will be pleased and proud of your purchase.
