A strong buy on price: £1,795 is above the recent 75th percentile of £1,441, so this is clearly an ambitious ask versus the typical used market, not a bargain. Against a median of £1,087 and a 25th percentile of £1,012, you’re paying a meaningful premium for the condition and presentation.
That said, this is a well-regarded deck, and a clean excellent-condition example can justify stretching if the arm, feet, platter, and motor/bearing history are all as claimed. The upside here is mainly in avoiding the usual used-buy uncertainty with a tidy, ready-to-run piece; just make sure any extras, packaging, and service history are documented before paying up.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
