At Stella, we only offer new football. You can find used baby football on individuals' resale sites like the right corner or eBay.
We advise you the greatest vigilance when buying a used baby football. It seems necessary to see the table football before buying and checking some key elements:
Crate and feet
These elements being made of wood, it is essential that there is no crack or a significant damage because these parts are not sold in spare parts and are difficult to repair oneself. Do not hesitate to check the inner state of the box.
However, some scratches will have no impact on the structure and strength of the baby football. The feet of all our models can be easily repainted using our paint taking up our official colors. For retro models, you can even repaint the box.
Bars
The greatest vigilance is to bet for the bars. Indeed, if they are twisted, it may need to change the inner rod. If all the bars are twisted, you have to count a budget of up to 250 € to repair everything. In this case, it is sometimes better to buy new football. Sometimes the bars require only a bilge to find optimal slip. Do not hesitate to bring your oil back when buying baby football to be able to set your diagnosis.
Baby football players
The Stella Babyoffs have been equipped with molded bars up to the 90s. These bars with molded players are very difficult to find what makes their replacement difficult. On the contrary, the table football with players screwed on the bars are more economical to repair because you can change the element of your choice.

Hardware
Remember to check that all the hardware is present. These elements are easily in a quicheger but can testify to a lack of care of the previous owners.
The edge
This is the part covering the flanks of the baby football, they are red, chrome or black. Their change is very easy and The price of spare parts is affordable. The state of this element should not brake your purchase but it can be an element to negotiate the price of your table football!
Mat
All Stella Babyoffs are equipped with a high-end carpet Gerflex. It is essential to verify that the wooden structure under the carpet is in good condition. Indeed, it is impossible to find in the trade of wooden structures for the carpet. You will have to disassemble the wooden game bottom and reproduce it identically.
If the carpet is tasted, you can surely clean it by following Our advice.
Know that if the carpet is too damaged or want to change the color, we sell pre-cut them and you can watch our video explaining how to change your carpet.
Baby coin operators
Some baby foots can be equipped with a coin operator. Please check that the mechanism works properly. An ancient mechanism can sometimes be seized and in this case a degreener and oil will suffice. However, if the mechanism is broken, it will be necessary to change it. We propose different models but no longer have a square coin opera.
