@neonknight, the only TT I have sold was a sale done with a similarity to your purchase of the DP 75.
I was to visit an audio friend who resides 100 miles from my home.
Through a forum talk, it was made known I had a Japanese Vintage DD TT, which was way beyond my wants, as it was suspected as NOS, factory box present, and not seemingly having been opened prior to my checking the contents.
A forum member wished to see it with the notion that if satisfied, they will make an offer on it. A rural location Farm Shop was selected as a meeting place, about 30 miles from my friends, hence a little detour was done prior to the visit.
The interested party and I stood in a Car Park with Boots Raised, eating Farm Shop purchased Rustic Cuisine. The deal was done, and one Boot emptied with the other becoming laden.
We parted ways, and that was that. Nearly two years later, at an enthusiasts' audio event, I met the Buyer and the TT adorned with a very nice plinth design and SME IV in a room, the owner was chuffed, as it was a risk for them to create, as they were, before this, a sole Garrard 301 user.
