Nakamichi TX 1000 turntable

The first off all Nakamichi TX-1000 is the awesome hightech apparatus for collectors.
And there are turntables, which are first of all great for listening to music. Micro Seiki, EMT, Thorens ( please add the list :) owners understand, what I talk about...

$3k is funny.  I seen in is going in the $7-9k range lately, with a NOS unit just went on eBay for $20k. 

Agreed. $3K is a joke.
There are serious collectors out there and as long as everything is in working order.....it can go for serious money even if outperformed by some other uber Japanese classic DD decks.

This was 2 years ago; the OP probably bought and sold the TX1000 in that length of time.  But $6-7K range is where I have seen them for sale.  I agree that $3K would be very low. On the other hand, the first guy, who said that they are hard to repair if malfunctioning is very correct, so far as I know.  Makes you think we're living dangerously with vintage turntables, or something like that.
