Not that rare, but an oversized plinth with two SME tonearms ready to go is not often seen

@reubent 

good find, I forget to look on Marketplace. I've sold a few things there.

Well first and foremost, yours is an idea of great merit.  Secondly, I still haven't taken time to learn the lessons you so patiently provided to me about posting photos.  Not long ago I bought a minty Mitsubishi LT22 for not much money.  I think about $700.  It is a whole bunch better than that Rabco you started this thread with.  I know of what I speak because back when these were current items, I was still in the business and sold both products and set many up.  Anyway, that is neither here nor there today.  Finally, I guess I am in old curmudgeon mode today, but harking back to my days selling hifi, I was the principal turntable set up guy at two separate McIntosh dealers, one in Seattle, and one in San Diego.  This experience, with time out for deployment overseas serving in the Navy, spanned about a decade from 1970 to 1980.  I worked on and serviced a lot of turntables.  Still do for that matter, but these days it is as a hobbyist.  Anyway, we took in on trade both Thorens 124s and Garrard 301/401s all the time for TD 125s.  Once in a while a Rec-O-Kut too.  We considered these old dogs.  How times and perceptions change!  For me they are beautiful to behold, but they are still noisy, rumbly, clunky damn things to listen to.  I really do not understand what the appeal is in terms of listening.  Beautiful to look at they may be.  But for playing records?  Not my cuppa.
