If it is a DP6 arm (which I own) then the 2nd hand price for that alone is more than £500.

Is the Thorens TD124 a Mk. I or as Mk. II?
Regardless of which Mk. it is, £500 is an absolute bargain. Thorens 124s these days usually go for £750 - £1000. I don't know much about the MØRCH arm, but I would have thought it was worth about £250, so together with the 124, £750 would seem to be a more realistic price.

Ok.. I'm making moves to buy this..
The guy who is selling used to own a hi-fi shop in the 80s and is selling a lot of new old stock.. he also has a thorens reference turntable with 3 arms.. and a ton of vintage arms, cartridges still boxed and sealed.. and a boxed / sealed SX1080
