That's what I so too. Not sure you win more often doing it that way, but it removes the temptation to up your bid if you get out bid.

I use Goofbay. It means you have to give them your ebay details, but I've never had a problem with it. It means I can put my bid in days in advance and forget about it.

I have found a remote for my VRDS 7. Bit expensive, but got to be better than my 4 iron.

The auction finished while I was on my way back from Great Yarmouth. Nice surprise to get home to.
It just happens that I have spare drawer bits on my dead vrds 9. A new, non-original, remote would have cost me £30. So I'm happy with the deal.
The plan now is to use one vrds 7 as a benchmark for upgrades on the other.
Just hoping my snipe on some interconnects works this week and that might see the end of my spending for this year. Apart from some upgrade bit's for the cdp that is. And maybe an arm for the new Teccy. And maybe a cartridge. Mmmm.......

Haha. Seriously retro! Look at this - "a Mitsubishi mc-8000 turntable/cassette player, has mixing controls, balance controls, bass controls, recording controls, turntable speed controls and so on."

I shall watch that (purely out of curiosity).Originally Posted by The Grand Wazoo
Assuming a set of Quad IIs + Quad 22 will sell for £400, and further assuming The Quad FM2s sell for £200 each, the AM2 for £100 and the remaining Quad 22s for £100 apiece, the buyer could see a return of £2,300.
Now how much the winner pays for that little lot remains to be seen!
