Technics SP 10 mc II. Worth looking at?


There is a Technics SP 10 mc II with a Micro MA 88 arm for sale and I’m wondering whether it’s worth buying. Due to local lockdowns I can’t view it. It’s  vintage, but if anything is wrong is it reparable, and worth repairing?  Otherwise I’ll keep looking for a Rega or Linn that I can afford

Most auctions see all the bidding action in the last 2minutes. This whole convo will change in terms of value during that 2 minutes and it will be to late to ask anything then. 
Given your location, shipping for any restoration work is a real cost consideration. As much as I loved my SP10mkII, I'd say this auction purchase has a good amount of risk.
If you really are determined to make a go of it, consider setting up an esnipe account, figure out your max bid ahead of time and let the algorithm do it's thing in the last minute of the auction. Cheers,
