hey guys, just relive this thread because i'm seriously asking myself to buy a peer of sl1210.

First, i'd like to know how can we check if the turntable is in good shape? (direct drive, pitch, etc..)
(asking because my first turnables was unused)

And for now saw an ad:
A peer of sl 1210 M3D for 1250€. Is it fair?
Seem like new on the fotos.

Thank for help.

about the price, yes, it could be a good investment if they are new-ish and everything is functioning correctly on them.

I bought 2 MK2 last weekend for 700,- €, without case but with 2 systems ... one in really good condition, optically like new, and the other one looks a lil bit used. booth of them are playing fine... i had been looking for them for 2 years now, and here in germany the prices have rised from 300/350 to 400/550 mainly. They still want 400-600 € for the sh*tiest club 1210 that is in a horrible condition. I have seen some on ebay for about 900-1200,- €!

Anyway, if you take some time and keep looking you can find some in good condition for about 350/400,- € ... a good tip is to look after ebay auctions that end in the week and not on weekend ; ) ...
