Acousti-Craft instead of Barzilay. Scott 299C amp, Scott 333 tuner, Miracord TT, and JBL LE14C's. All 1962. By the time I sold the two Scotts, I broke even and had free furniture and JBL's.
Price is indeed a bit aggressive. Maybe even at a premium over the components, and the furniture is actually a liability - not very many people want that big set.

I keep hoping to find something like that in the thrift stores, but the way things are nowadays, I would have a better chance wining the lottery!

No kidding. Even decent LPs are tough to find. I haven't got much since the '08 crash. Too many "semi-pro" scavengers supplementing unemployment/ other by ebay-ing. And the thrifts ebay too.
My set, plus a Pilot console (SA232 and SP210 for $200) were the only times I violated my never more than $50 for a console rule. Can't do that anymore, everybody thinks they have a goldmine; "look at the gorgeous furniture". Bah. Unless it's separate speaker cabs, it's gutted and on the burnpile.
That one looks like it has separate speakers, however the price is still way too dear. I got in this because I am cheap! That price is rivaling new gear.
