I know you weren't.
Some of the e-mails he sent to me made me laugh as well.

Madness, i picked up a complete working piece of plastic crap of a CD player with the very same laser & a mechanism for less than £30 deliveredThat gives me a spare motor to spin the disc etc as well
Plays any CDR perfectly, that says it all...
I guess i should be glad that people don't do any research on things
Bests, Mark

Lovely Pickering XV-15 625E, virtually 'stolen' from eBay!
Just won this little chap, which I definitely consider as being a bit of a bargain:

I've always wanted one of these, and this one is minty with a hardly used original stylus. Not bad for £27.00, when I know just how good these sound....!
It's certainly a valuable new addition to my vintage cartridge collection, so thanks to Andr'e for alerting me to it - nice one, dude!
Marco.

Nice One Marco, shame about the mark on the model number label just under the mounting lugs, this always happens cos people are just careless...Now if you ever see an 'XLZ-7500S' with 'PLZ' at a cheap price snap that up
