Bargains on ebay?

Very rare Supex SM-100 Mk.III MM pickup cartridge. Never heard one myself, but these are reputed to be one of the very best MM designs.

Is that the case Dave? I did not know. That means the design also lives on in some of the Clearaudio MM cartridges, which are very close relatives of the Sumikos.

VDH interconnects....The seller is also selling Valves.

Have been a few pre-power Stratos set-ups on ebay recently, one with four power amps.

Uncommon I'd say.

They come up as often as any other uncommon thing.

Below a certain level of common of anything, unless you are on ebay going through the whole lot often enough, you will likely never see another again..

That's what leads people to believe that some things are as rare as this or that when they're just uncommon. It's just how the statistics work out - constant passing ships in the night.
