Brunswick is a top name in pool tables. Aside from finding deals on Brunswick tables through auction sites like eBay, one can often find local billiards dealers that sell new and used tables. The official Brunswick website also has a "Find Dealer" section which is useful for locating a retailer by geographic location.
