Looks like a serious piece of gear, the platter itself weighs 1.4 kg, automatic, direct drive.
It's on sale for about 20 euro + shipping. Would this be a good deal?

Thank you.

1 step down from the 731Q, which I think is a very fine table. If the shipping is SAFE and reasonable, I'd go for it.

Well, I've certainly enjoyed my 622 which is very similar... perhaps an older version. I paid US$85, local pickup, and mine was a 1-owner and rather well taken care of and operating almost flawlessly (save for the typical auto stop issue) ... and I feel it was a fair price, for what it's worth.

Value question moved to Dollars and Sense.

If the TT is in good working condition, 20 euros ($27 US) is a great price. I'm partial to direct drive, but would use any of the drive types. If you don't like the cartridge, you can always add a cartridge of your choice. Verify that the seller will lock the transport locking screws before the TT is boxed & shipped.

Guess I'll bid for this. Dual 704 was refered a s a better TT?

Thank you.

Didn't realize what the Euro<>USD conversion rate was. I'd be jumping all over that for $27

Well, fact it's I can buy a Dual 704 on the same price, so I'll have to decide. You won't belive it, but I found an CS 714Q (quartz) for 10 euro or so.

I really don't know which one to buy.

Buy them all and then decide. I think you will be able to sell them for the price you will pay wiyjput any problems. Only after hearing them and playing them for a while will help you decide.
