Prospective buyers of the Rega Saturn, or Rega Apollo CDPs should know...

... Rega will not honor their warranty to buyers of "used" units.

Rega will honor their 3 year warranty... only... to the original buyer.

So... know that... if you buy a used Saturn, or Apollo - which then develops their now widely experienced, "infamous" read errors... Rega will not repair your "used" unit under their warranty.

It would be best to avoid used units, or 1) accept the fact that you have no warranty; or 2) obtain the seller's warranty to facilitate obtaining warranty service through their dealer... if... they're the orginal buyer.

As always... "caveat emptor."
