description is this for the Mike New bearing upgrade on auction by Dave Cawley. This is the bearing upgrade for Technics SL1200/1210's. See link.

And how much more evasive can one get with answers like those given to two inquiries? "Some would say it is defective, others would not". WTF.
Dave Cawley knows its condition so why not be up front and say so? It is either defective or it isn't. The strong implication is that one will be taking a risk buying this bearing but my bet is that it is perfectly OK as are the others he plans to sell.
So why the deception? To prevent cannibalized sales of his own inferior bearing? To take a cheap shot at Mike New by implying his bearings are defective? Or is it that he simply could not make enough money selling Mike New bearing upgrades? And knows he can't manufacture to the same quality? Probably.
