In Reply to: RE: Garage Sales....Why? posted by Phil D on June 02, 2007 at 17:51:55
Just out of curiosity, how much did you pay?
I paid $50 for the set-up....two Gemini turntables with Stanton cartridges, a mixer, amp and the "coffin"
When I got to their sale, I told them I look for stereo stuff....they told me they had DJ gear and I told them I really don't get into DJ gear....
I looked anyway and they said it worked great....all they were asking for it was $50. I looked at the amp and noticed the one speaker post was broken off...that's when the lady said "That's why it's only $50!"
Anyway, If I knew a channel was out on the amp and that I needed to work on the 'tables, I would have passed on the deal.
Lucky for me, I got the 'tables working so I can use them...I may even send one to Gemini to have it refurbed if it is not too expensive. They are not bad turntables...knock-off of the Technics SL-1200.
Sorry for the long answer!
*tusk...tusk*
Yes, I am complaining!
I only bought the items because the seller TOLD ME TO MY FACE that everything worked!
The amp is not worth repairing....the turntables are worth only $20 each....the mixer is of no use to me...
Whether I paid $5, $50 or $500....the point is the SELLER LIED! If I knew the amp was bad or the turntables needed that much work I would not have bought at ANY price, nor would I have taken them for FREE!
