Just ordered a vpi avenger

I wouldn't want anybody but myself setting up my turntable. Especially that table. I couldn't imagine anybody else taking the time to get all the adjustments just right. Even after the setup is done per specs you still need to fine tune with your ears.

Thanks for the fast response I’m not closed to pay them it would be very nice to pay them if the installation was spot on.

Congratulations. Nice setup.

Dropping that much dough, the dealer can at least setup the cartridge for it, if you also purchased a cart. Other than that, the setup is likely straight forward-unbox, follow instructions. Just make sure it's on a level surface.

From a dealers perspective it's more time/expense that needs to be accounted for. Doesn't hurt to ask. 

When you get a major appliance, delivery typically isn't free. Do tip them well, if they do.

Usually a table like that they should box it up and help load it in your car. It probably comes in a couple different boxes and in case more than one guy helps load I would be prepared with a couple bills to avoid the embarrassment of them having to split the tip.

Unless you are an expert in setting up a table, I think it makes sense for them to set it up. I also think that the appropriate time to negotiate their services would be before you gave them the $10K. VPI Avenger is probably a good choice, just be sure to select a cartridge that is worthy of that investment.
