It's a Hanpin Super OEM. Look at the details compared to any of the other 'premium' versions - they are identical.
Move along Gentlemen, nothing to see here...

I reckon a genuine SL1200 equivelant/improvement would retail at £1500 absolute minimum. This is just a disco deck with a Pioneer badge stuck on and doesn't pretend to be anything else even in its own blurb. Some wishful thinking going on which I could sort of understand if there wern't hundreds of decent used SL1200 out there for sale at around £250 notes.

Its 'Key Features' tell the story. S shaped tonearm! - must the High End here. 'Rubber-lined tone arm ...' Oh dear, have they not heard of sorbothane? If Richard (oldpinkman) reads this he will have conniptions.
