Could cost anywhere between $150 -$850 depending on the table. I contacted DMAOnline and they managed to send me felt which was pretty good quality. They don't sell it on their website but managed to help me out with my pool table 😁
No. Pool table felt is a specialized felt designed specifically for pool tables. There are many variations of table felt and each will react differently with the balls, and each has a differnt lifespan on the table. Use of felt not designed for pool table use will result in poor play at best, and will quickly be destroyed at worst.
it cost about 1000 dollars!
Friction. The movement of the rolling pool balls does no damage to the pool felt. However, the pool balls accumulate pool chalk that is very abrasive. The pool chalk accumulated on the balls and dropping on to the felt both result in tearing of the felt fibers as balls are struck or slide on the table. Occasionally balls bounce or are jumped on the table, resulting in even more damage. Damaged felt is a part of playing pool.
Yes. Like everything else in this world, pool table felt is finite. Eventually after years of having wooden cues grinding against them causing friction, the felt will wear down and eventually rip. A professional can replace the felt on a pool table.

Most likely the felt is permanently damaged. Go to your local billiards pro shop, or online, and purchase pool table cleaner. If the marks are superficial, a proper cleaning may get rid of them. However, pool table felt is not woven like the fabric used in clothing and can be damaged easily - how easily depends upon the brand and type of felt.
Felt Rescue
Felt for a pool table could be purchased and delivered on Amazon. They have a wide variety of felts in all kinds of cuts and different colors to change the look of or match the look you have now.
The end consumer is the only real buyer of a second hand pool table. Roughly 50% of the original cost of a good pool table is dealer mark-up (including set-up). A pool table supplier may purchase a used pool table for a very low cost, but their only reason for doing so is to get the slate because they have a table with damaged slate. The best way to sell a used table is internet or local classified ads.
Yes, there is no difference between the Mizerak pool table and other slate pool tables. It is expected to get new felt due to normal wear.
it probably won't rip the felt but it could put dents in the table depending on whether you have a wood or slate table
