Wouldn't mind that too much (although would take a bodyguard :lol:
.... but shouting at potential buyers CASH ON COLLECTION ONLY - NO EXCEPTIONS and then needlessly repeating it 10 times without even having the decency to post clear and properly oriented pictures would not persuade me to part with even a fraction of that money - bargain or no bargain

It's less than an hour's drive from me but quite frankly I've met enough grumpy disrespectful farts to last me a lifetime....

It might be a collector's item. I can't imagine many have survived this long. Make it £10 and he might weaken.

Mike you may well be right..... However for anyone that can turn up and listen to the amp and meet the person, to check out both!, this amp is still a bargain...

Like you, I like to buy from 'nice' people but sometimes eBay listings do not do justice to some people. It might be that the seller is actually a very nice chap but has no idea how to properly list on eBay

If anyone is near to the seller and bothers to visit and check him out, and his amp for sale, I am quite sure someone will be getting a complete bargain...

£890 or 'offer' is a steal for a late model Oto... believe me I own one...;)

This very amp is now down to £800 on the wam. Pics there correctly oriented and there is one of the internals. Also no hectoring re cash on collection etc.

Dont say which colour of rondo it is but looks like the cheaper red. Maybe a tad overpriced for my liking but they are good decks and can understand you fancying it Paul. Would go well with your kit. I liked that big Sony that was for sale in Edinburgh, but couldnt justify 2 decks

It's the chassis on the Kenwood that really appeals Grant. It's a thing of beauty.

yes I am - this would be going back to about 1992. Are we talking about a completely different castle trent?

...and I can never understand how sellers happily describe items as being in excellent condition yet for the photos insist on putting accessories including plugs teeth down on top (especially of turntable lids), seemingly to ensure a jolly good scratching...

Of course it will be brilliant, just look at the size of those metres. :)

If it's happy into 4 ohms, you could happily string speakers around the space. I assume that you wouldn't want deafening levels anyway. Most people like to chat over a drink.

Crazy... and looking at the comments there seems to be a doubt if the B-110's are the originals. I am quite sure my Sterlings would sound as good if not better and mine are mint, which these Chartwell's are definitely not... and my Sterlings could be had for a fraction of that silly price... :doh:

And these are just stupid, and they all have rubbish binding posts...:

Cheap SUT anybody? Ending very soon.

It's an Audio Technica AT-630. Pretty basic, but at a bargain price it's better than nothing.

Looks in decent condition.
