put some pics on when youve fitted the Jelco. I still have a bit on an itch about that arm lol
Will do bigman.
These belong to a mate of mine from work who is a former BBC studio manager. Apart from an easily polishable fade on the tops, they are mint and are the quite rare Swisstone made version. Well worth a look. He had a bid from someone in Taiwan with no feedback and cancelled it.

Nice speakers but not anywhere near the right price, the seller must be on a different planet:eek:

I don't know, these are pretty rare, with the stands too. I agree he won't sell them at that price, £500 would be more realistic, but compared to what you would get new for a grand there is a lot of speaker there for the money.Quote:

Wouldnt be surprised if they sell.
Only 2 days left, collection only, not a bargain price. I doubt it but we shall see.Quote:

To me that says they aren't worth the asking price, don't get me wrong they're a nice pair of speakers, i had some Sony APM speakers in the late 80's, hence my interest, but even then they weren't £1000 pair, i'd pay about £200 or £300 max, just cos somethings rare doesn't mean it automatically should be worth a fortune.Quote:

Some pretty serious money being asked for vintage Decca FFSS cartridges these days.

That's probably a tenfold increase in five years. Mind you, they are scarce and in sound terms maybe worth it!

This is a bit steep. £275 for an Ortofon armlift.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Or...3D142246897898
Maybe it's a solid Platinum one.
just a tad....seen them sell for a ton though
Got a very similar one on the shelf near me. Colton item I think. Must be worth a fortune now! :)Quote:

That's nothing. How about £300 for a single new five pound note? And all because it has a serial number which starts with 'AK47'!
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RARE-NEW-5...3D371834096819
Oops - Snap! :lol:
The seller will take offers. How about 500................penceQuote:

Peace
she didnt know the value off the tt at that point,that is why the ad was placed at £100,she has had over 300 emails, 1 person wanted to come down from newcastle,1 travel up from cornwall! others were saying i'll give you £50 more than your asking etc. pure greed if you ask me,sometimes its nice to do the right thing in life and help someone out. thats not directed to anyone on here,just saying. peace back at ya!Quote:

I put a 3009 on my Toshiba and preferred the Mission. That's all. I'm not in the market for an SME 3009 after my own experience with one. Beautifully engineered and very pretty but just didn't like the sound. Sold it on here (the forum) for a non profit price too. Coz I'm nice like that [emoji6]

Should also point out that I thought it had been purchased for £100 and then been put back up for sale at £500.Quote:
