Corporata Ltd was set up as a business consultancy in 1993. It was a contracting company covering all aspects of communications and website development. In 2005 the consultancy merged with the original directors of Pool Snooker & Leisure Supplies of Bournemouth (which had been set up in 1988). This family company has since specialised in the development of pool and snooker services over the Internet. We now promote the sale and fulfilment of top-of-the range domestic tables, particularly in the niche market of convertible pool and snooker dining tables

(i) warranty

All pool tables and snooker tables bought or commissioned directly or indirectly from this website are subject to our own warranty of satisfaction and those warranties of satisfaction given by the pool table and snooker table manufacturer.

(ii) ordering and payment

The tick-box enquiry forms for each table featured on the website are there to enable the many pool and snooker table options to be presented, and to simplify customer enquiries.

Settlement of the balance is after the table has been installed, and to the customers satisfaction. Settlement, upon presentation of a sales invoice, is by bankers draft or pre-arranged money transfer. Our card payments (for deposits against tables, or for settlement against playing accessories) are processed by Barclaycard Business-Credit cards processing section.
