Look again. There's no BIN. Auction only.Originally Posted by Macca
We'll have to remember to check it out. But you can't make an offer it is just £1200 BIN and collection only from well out in the sticks. A fiver says the auction will expire with no sale

Quite. I find it interesting how stuff like this can actually end up selling for more when the buyers think the seller doesn't know what they have... If you know what I mean ?
I've sold stuff in the past listing out in great detail exactly what it is & what needs doing to it to get it back to rights etc only for the buyer to return it saying its crap so I relist but change the description to a simple one saying "heres a piece of junk I found in a garage" & it sells for twice the original price & the buyer is over the moon
Then you get people trying it on..."One Garrard 301? gramophone I found in my deceased uncles attic, I don't know anything stereos but thought i'd offer it for sale before taking it to the dump.... *Grease bearing model*"

But Technics are the best innit ? Not sure how so many of a certain age came to that conclusion but I've heard it many, many times. They didn't do marketing like Bose so what gives ? Is it all thanks to the SL1200

More fool him for using a dealer price for reference... Never mind the fact those were in better condition and had a worldwide shipping option. IMO his best shot at getting a decent price would be start at 99p.
