Hi Paul,
Just go to the page where you've seen the Dynaco on Ebay, then copy the link (it'll start with 'http'), from the address bar on your browser, by right-clicking on your mouse and highlighting it, then paste the address onto the reply box here (by right-clicking on your mouse)
I tried to find the Dynaco you mentioned, but only got some instruction manuals....
However, Dynaco are a vintage American brand. Their equipment is quite highly rated, and not usually stupidly priced like some Audio Research or McIntosh kit can be. If it's cheap enough and in good nick, it should be a sound buy

Yup - good point, Ali, although it's nothing a step-down transformer wouldn't sort out...
Well done, Paul - piece of piss posting links, innit?
Looks nice, although I think that £325 is a tad 'optimistic'. I'd defo be making an offer
Good luck!
Marco.

I contacted the seller and it is 240v and its also factory built, I probably wont buy it but its a beaut, also did a completed listings search and it seems on the expensive side

Judging by the rat's nest inside, it doesn't look like a 'factory' build to me.
