If you are looking for a good-value cue, want to exchange your cue bag for a case, or are thinking of selling your billiard table, our brand-new advertising platform could be just what you are looking for. It offers all MWS users the opportunity to advertise their used billiard products of any kind publicly and to sell, exchange or purchase them among themselves.

The attempt to find a desired product within the billiard community or to sell your own used goods profitably, quickly leads to well-known used goods platforms. These are available in specific forms for a wide range of industries. But for billiards? This is where our marketplace comes into play! It is specifically designed for billiards and is aimed at a specialist audience, the billiard community. You can advertise and trade with all used billiard products from all sectors: Cues, balls, tables and accessories. Carom, Birilli, Pool and Snooker.

The MWS billiard marketplace combines a used goods exchange and a shop for new goods under one roof.

Our marketplace is an online advertising platform for selling, exchanging and buying used billiard articles - privately, commission-free and directly from user to user (C2C). Its integrated online shop for new goods at top prices is an exclusive feature for MWS locations only.

We have made a conscious decision to design our advertising platform for private vendors and to keep it free for private use. Both the search for offers and advertising are free of charge and successful deals are commission-free. As a consequence, only used items can be advertised and suppliers must take care of all business matters independently and on their own responsibility.

To the MWS marketplace with all offers

Together with our partners, we offer factory-new billiard products from well-known manufacturers at preferential prices via the integrated online shop of our marketplace. The shop is an exclusive feature for our MWS locations. New products can only be purchased on our marketplace via the integrated shop and sales are only made to our locations.

Private adverts on our platform are restricted to used goods for two reasons: We want (and need) to earn money from the sale of new goods on our marketplace – unsurprisingly – and therefore reserve this right for ourselves and our partners. And secondly, we simply think it's good and right to give used products a new chance. It's environmentally friendly, sustainable and good for the consumer's wallet. If you don't need the latest off-the-shelf cue model, a second-hand cue can be a good choice. Second-hand products are also typically much cheaper than corresponding new items.

The right types of adverts are available for the various intentions.

To place an ad on our marketplace, a valid MWS user registration is required. When creating an ad, advertisers can choose from a range of categories for different purposes:

  • "For sale": If a used billiard item is to be sold
  • "For exchange": ... is to be exchanged for another
  • "For sale or exchange": ... is to be sold or exchanged for another
  • "Wanted for purchase": ... is to be searched for purchase

Detailed instructions on how to create an advert are provided in the customer area, where adverts can also be created and managed free of charge.

If interested in an offer, interested parties can contact the provider directly and arrange everything else. The contact details of the providers are only accessible to authenticated MWS users. The entire business and the entire processing is then done privately from MWS user to MWS user. Providers are the respective advertisers, who are solely responsible for their advertised offers and can create, edit and delete them independently. All businesses and contracts on our advertising platform are concluded exclusively and directly between the provider and the interested party, MWS does not act as an intermediary or dealer and assumes no liability.
