It's a PL-12D. It works. In view of this, it's worth more than £2.50.

Isn't it????


Yes, damn right it is, but the fact that it needs a new stylus (or
entire new cart) and you have got a £20 packing charge on it will mean
that it will probably add up to well over £50-60 to a purchaser at the
end of the day - not particualarly cheap for an eBay item at this time
of the year. Also, keeping the original manual to sell separately won't
have won you many admirers with 'classic audio' fans......

Let's hope you've got a couple of snipers waiting in the wings!


Hey, the £20 was supposed to be a deterrent. It's a local deck for local
people! Anyhow, packing a turntable is hardly a matter of a really big
jiffy bag and a large portion of stamps.




Agreed and I'm pleased to see it went a bit sensible at the end thanks to,
er, a couple of snipers....!!!

Forgot to mention, I had a mail from Norway from someone who had found a
cheap flight deal and was going to come and get it! Also an Italian wanted
shipping costs. Both thought better of it in the end.
