Oracle Alexandria turntable question

Anyone have an opinion if this turntable is worth fixing if I pick it up for $80?

It has a broken leg, broken dust cover and powers up but platter won't spin.

That's all I know and I've seen only pictures as it's an hour's drive away.

Thanks all.

Thing is it's close to 100 miles away. Still weighing time and gas to pick up a broken turntable whose parts are really hard to acquire.

Shipping would be fairly cheap though. Unless you have some particular emotional reason for the brand. I know I would drive 3 hours for Celestion SL6 speakers.

Seems like a lot of hub bub over something I’m just curious about. Pride in getting it running and all that but hardly a priority at this time...
