What's it worth?
Actually two questions here.
I have to downsize some of my collection as age is catching up and a move to smaller dwelling is in the near future.
I have 2 turntables and think I will keep the SL1200MKll. As much as I hate the thought I may have to give up my beautiful Luxman PD 121. It has an SME 3009 TA with a Denon DL103 MC cartridge and Denon AU 320 dual pick up matching transformer. Pretty sure I still have the original owners manual for it. I have owned it since new and very rarely ever use it. I have no idea what this set up might be worth today in near perfect condition.
The second question is the one that scares me the most. I don't think I would even attempt to pack and ship this nice table so it would have to be a Pick Up only sale and I live in the mountains about 90 miles from NYC.
A few years back I sold one of my Sansui G-9000 receivers and packed it like it was going to Mars. The shipper drove the fork of the fork lift right through it and then fought me over the insured value. I won't do it again.
Thanks for any input here.
