Spring cleanout has come early this year. I've put my 401 up for sale on ebay:

Have a look, bid and push the price up so I can buy an SP10 :)
I'll give you £50 for the lot ;)
Hang on, I doubt I'd get the MAT for that price these days - Boooooooo
Very good luck with your sale. I loved a 301/Bastin plinth/OmegaPoint arm/Decca Silver-VDH deck I had the pleasure of setting up for a friend some years ago.

Thanks Dave,
Somebody on here has already stumped up an € for the 401. There's 7 watchers on the motor unit.
I'll be sorry to see the 401 go, and who knows I may regret it, but I just don't have the space to have multiple turntables.
Wish I could get mine back, but the chap who put it into storage twenty years or so ago denies ever having seen it - he's honest and I really do think it's memory lapse...

I'm sure I'll have some regrets about selling this, but It'll surely go to a good home. For the purists it's not in stock condition, but for listening to music dificult to find a better example.
Hope you got a good price for it Peter?
I'd have probably let the auction end personally, I'm sure there was going to be a last minute bidding war! :eyebrows:

Mike,
I got a fair price for it (1200€) and a shure V15 Type III with a new stylus. I sold the Plinth/Motor/Arm together. I was really worried about shipping the plinth. It would have cost a lot and I had to make shipping boxes. I managed to sell locally, it went to its new home in a taxi.
I demoed it full bore without the Bastin Power supply, and it sounded really great (made me wonder why I was selling it :mental:, and the buyer thought I was :mental: ).
But I have this Technics SP10 project that I want to complete before the years end, so something had to go.
