Apologies if these have been mentioned before but I can't believe that these have been listed several times and still haven't sold at this price http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/JPW-AP3-Sp...item3aac8c6e3b
Stands included as well but I think you would probably be better off with some open frame stands for them.
I've got a later pair of these and I won't be changing them any time soon

Mission 774 tonearms are rather in demand recently. Not surprisingly. What else can you get for sensible money that competes. Nothing! I guess we'll see prices continue rising. Funny really. I paid £200 for my first one about twenty five years ago. A bit over the odds back then for a used one, but I wanted it. It turned out to sound better than the Ittok I had on my 401, so the Ittok went (and some modded Rega arms) and the 774 has been here since (along with a couple more --- just in case).

Isn't that rather an 'arse about face' way of doing things? Just have the new bits sent and fit 'em yourself.
Worth doing. The AR competes with anything up to an LP12 (not that I'm a fan of LP12s). The only other belt drive TT I'd consider at around the same sort of price as the AR, is the now quite scarce Manticore Mantra, which is a bit special. Don't know why, but it just manages to sound better than most other belters. The Heybrook TT2 is excellent too, but fetches a bit more as a rule.
