Appraising Vintage Turntable

I know I have something good on hand but I'd like to get some direction in establishing value and condition of a Garrard 301. It is a grease bearing model and has a tonearm I've never seen before, a low mass model. I would email pictures if that would help, or put them in this forum post if that's permitted. I have no inclination yet as to keeping or selling. Thanks

Thanks. It appears to have been in a console as the plinth isn't very sustancial.

A grease bearing 301 is worth between $1000 and $1500 depending on condition, more if it's the older hammertone color. Final value will depend on plinth and tonearm.

A-gon has a price history section so you can look at recent transactions and how much money was involved.
