    WTB: Cheap Turntable

    I'm looking for a used vintage Turntable for light use in my basement/bar system.  It will not be used frequently and will play through my Forte II's and Sony receiver. I've been looking at Technics and Dennon, but I don't have any set brand in mind.  I don't want to spend much more than $100. I will be attending the pilgrimage in Indy and would be willing to wait until then for in-person pick up, but shipping is also OK.

    How 'bout something like this?  I might be willing to part with mine.

    I presume you have the earlier model?  That wouldn't be bad at all.  There is a shop up here in Saginaw that sells records and used TTs, but he's pricey and doesn't have very many quality TTs.   

     It's a shame, I was in Detroit last night for a Tigers game (the less said about that game, the better) and I didn't see this before I left.  I'll send you a PM.

    Pete, are you going to the Pilgrimage in Indy this summer?  Otherwise it would not be feasable for me to drive to Chicago with gas prices being what they are.  Thanks for the offer.

    Joe,

      You have a pm.

    James

    Everything. OK! I'll talk! In third grade, I cheated on my history exam. In fourth grade, I stole my uncle Max's toupee and I glued it on my face when I was Moses in my Hebrew School play. In fifth grade, I knocked my sister Edie down the stairs and I blamed it on the dog... When my mom sent me to the summer camp for fat kids and then they served lunch I got nuts and I pigged out and they kicked me out... But the worst thing I ever done - I mixed a pot of fake puke at home and then I went to this movie theater, hid the puke in my jacket, climbed up to the balcony and then, t-t-then, I made a noise like this: hua-hua-hua-huaaaaaaa - and then I dumped it over the side, all over the people in the audience. And then, this was horrible, all the people started getting sick and throwing up all over each other. I never felt so bad in my entire life. - "Chunk" / The Goonies
