Question about Marantz Price

Yes! Almost 50% off seems like a good deal!

If it has the Clearaudio Virtuoso cartridge in good condition, then yes.  If some other lesser cartridge has been put on the table, then maybe not (the Virtuoso is an $800 cartridge).

ok thanks for the input, I am trying to get that info from the seller.

Found out from the vendor that no cartridge is included.
But I am thinking, since it has no cartridge (assuming everything else is working well and in good condition) and I were to get say a Hana SL MC for around $600 (after a 20% discount as one vendor states), it would end up around $1400 to $1500 (after maybe taxes and shipping), I think that would be a decent deal considering the table new is around $1500.
I am still pondering, since I would need to get some type of dust cover.

I don’t get it.... Get a brand new one with virtuoso cartridge for around 1500 or a used one for around 1500....? How is that a good deal? Am I missing something?
