This is a buyer’s market for the model: at kr 21,000, the asking price sits just above the kr 20,598 median and well inside the normal used band between kr 18,946 and kr 34,699. That makes it fair to slightly attractive, not a bargain-bin steal, but comfortably reasonable for a sought-after deck.
The appeal here is the Planar 8’s core strengths: very low-mass design, strong speed stability, and the kind of clarity and timing that make Rega tables such a good listen. If it’s complete with the original PSU, platter, and dust cover, it becomes an easy yes at this level; if condition is truly clean and it has been well cared for, that adds real value.

Rega Research, founded in 1973 in Essex, England, by Roy Gandy and Tony Relph, emerged from Gandy's lifelong passion for vinyl playback. A Ford engineer and music enthusiast, Gandy built his first turntable, the Planet, in his spare time, blending the founders' surnames to create the Rega name. From humble beginnings in a derelict mill, the company quickly gained traction with early models like the Planar 2 and Planar 3, establishing its heritage as a British hi-fi pioneer dedicated to precision engineering and hand-assembly.
Rega specializes in turntables and tonearms, its cornerstone products, but has expanded into a full ecosystem including cartridges, integrated amplifiers like the Elicit and Brio, phono stages such as the Fono, and speakers like the Ela series. While early efforts included loudspeakers and electronics from the 1980s onward, the brand prioritizes vinyl-centric components over headphones, DACs, or cables, all designed in-house for musical fidelity using specialist materials and tight tolerances.
Rega holds a revered position in the high-end hi-fi market as a niche boutique icon, prized by audiophiles for affordable, lifetime-quality performance that emphasizes music over gimmicks. Globally exported to over 50 countries from its Essex facility employing more than 150, it remains a symbol of British ingenuity, with turntables like the Planar series securing enduring loyalty among vinyl revivalists.
