I bid on it and won at the starting price. Next job is to fit it, that will be a first. Last time I did anything like this was in the early seventies with an AT1005 tone arm and a Garrard 401, could only afford a Goldring G800 after I bought the 401! I remember it all costing £65 and my dad had to build a plinth to house it, I was 17 at the time. I want it back!!!! Bought it from REW in Tottenham Court Road.
