The best audio steal or deal you've ever gotten?

Linn Sondek LP-12/Basik Plus/Denon & Dynavector carts
an Audioquest sorbathane mat, PS Audio phono stage and Rega
RB250 (spare) tone arm and 2 set of brass tip toes

All of the above in excellent condition, save some swirls on the dust cover, including shipping costed me a whopping...

"$200.00"

How it came to be I had purchased another item from him at a way inexpensive price and at the time I was ready to plunk down $1500 on a new vinyl rig. I inquired, basically, out of curiosityabout he having a TT for sale and he mentioned he had the above tucked away for the last decade. He was kind enough to dig the turntable out that day, took digital pictures and emailed them to me. He even shipped it all out to me before I mailed him the money. Everytime he found another TT related item he mailed it to me free of charge, like belts and such.

I know this all sound entirely too good to be true, but it is true! I will never sell any of this rig and if for some reason I ever decide I am going to give up on vinyl the next owner will pay what I paid for it.

Thanks for the read and now let me hear about your best steals and deals!
