The classic VPI Scout in great condition, signed by the Weisfield's! I checked with VPI directly and they verified that this was indeed hand signed by Harry and Matt for a show demo (I can dig up the email if you'd like it). Includes numerous updates: 300 RPM motor (which you can run double belts with if you wish to experiment), anti-skate option, Delrin clamp, Herbie's Audio Grungebuster mat, Deep Groove heavy counterweight for heavier cartridges, and custom acrylic dustcover. Also includes all of the alignment tools, manual and all packing. Trying to be conservative on the rating because there is one small flaw on the base between the platter and arm... hard to see but I've included a pic and want to fully disclose. Mint other than that. I am not the original owner, but have been running this as my primary 'table for quite some time and I'm only selling due to acquiring another 'table and arm combo I've lusted after for a while... typical audio nerd disease! I may regret this because this is one of the best 'tables I've ever owned. It's just an excellent, stable performer, day in and day out. You can't go wrong with this magnificent design!I will cover shipping and PP fee at my asking price for sales in the Continental U.S. ONLY. Others will need to be negotiated. I have all packing and boxes. There are two boxes, one for the table and one for the dustcover. The table box is 25X19X12, weighs ~34#, and the dustcover box is 24X19X13, weighs 12#. Thanks for having a look! PLEASE READ: The fine print, because there are some folks that make it necessary... • I will consider offers, but please don't waste my time or your own making stupid ones that are 25-50% below asking price. I try diligently to price items well and in line with the Blue Book and the market. Silly offers will be politely declined. • All sales are final. This is a used item and is sold as-is with no warranties intended, implied or granted. That said, I do want to make sure you're happy with your purchase and our dealings, and will work with you on any issues. I have 100% positive feedback over many years on Audiogon (as DOGMCD), US Audio Mart & Audio Asylum (as MUSIKHUND) and I do my best to keep it that way! That said, don't try to scam people by trying to get your money back after a month or more! • Shipping costs are the responsibility of the buyer and will be the actual amount, unless it is specifically stated otherwise in the ad. I always include insurance on items when shipped; seems silly not to, due to the expense of some of the audio equipment we all love and enjoy, so any shipping damage becomes the responsibility of the shipper and neither you nor I get shafted! Total shipping costs will be actual amounts, no markups or added "fees". • Please DON'T send payment, until all shipping costs and payment fees have been discussed and agreed upon. I prefer PayPal, fees are the responsibility of the buyer at 3% added to total cost of item plus shipping and insurance. I'll also take Google Pay and Apple Pay via the web. If you would like to pay via check or money order, I will ship the item after funds are fully cleared. Locally arranged sales for cash are always appreciated as well. Thanks.
