 I try not to pay anything for mass market turntables/phonographs, especially those needing a new needle, the yard sales are full of ones needing needles, or cartridges, and or belts, because people don't know where to get them, or can't be bothered, even the second hand stores won't take them. It's probably a half decent record player, and if it can track records without skipping, good, I'm just letting you know about my experiences in the local/regional market. I don't care about what they may sell for on fleabay, there are so many scam sellers and bidders on there who knows if a $200 sale is legit, but given that I don't like having radios shipped I wouldn't trust a seller with packing it right or a shipper getting one here in one piece with destroying it.
