Have you seen this one?

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/115971824962

If that price stays below £200-220, I think you’d struggle to do better.

Luke,

Your profile says you’re based in London and the eBay listing says London (there’s a W1 postcode, if you drill down). An Uber fare from W1 to where you are could be factored into the total you are prepared to pay? I’d rather do that than trust a courier TBH.

£150 for a 504 with smashed glass is silly money. I have a 104 and 504. Both great tuners and in regular use. Be patient you will get better than the above ebay listing

I’ve been on hitchhikers quite a while and I think the going rate for a very good 504 is closer to well upwards of £300. And cracked glass doesn’t impair the performance; if shoved in a rack, probably invisible. I’d be more worried about performance, the quality of the LEDs and the presence of lettering on the front.

FWIW, I waited ages for my utterly mint one, to round off my 500 series collection, and it cost me almost £400 collected last year.

Happy to sell my 504, for £400.

Amongst my other 'old' tuners I have a 504 purchased s/hand, and a Kremlin (purchased new), currently the Kremlin is inoperative and the 504 is working perfectly.

Here's one : https://www.retrotechaudio.co.uk/meridian-504-1.html


I've purchased other kit from 'Retrotech' in the past (Leak Stereofetic, Quad 303, 405, Rotel 965BX Discrete) and always found them straightforward to deal with.

Mike K.
