VPI turntable repairs

Schipo: Thanks for the advice but I think I'm done with VPI.....It's quite a shame , I really like records......But I think I need to try something else....

Will, Still you haven't clearly mentioned what Model Turntable this is? All I see mentioned at this point, is the word "Jr"?

Is this a HW-19 Table? Or?

If it is a HW-19 Table, there may be diffculty getting much in the way of parts, or repair. VPI dropped support of this Table, being that it was made for a good 25 years, and while they have some parts still available, some things like Plinths, Armboards are most likely non-existent. Custom fabrication will be the only way, unless one could catch used parts here, but you may be in for a long wait.

If it is a more current model (Scout) then there should be no problem for any parts. Mark

I am sure if you speak to Harry he offer some kind of repair deal Its worth a try otherwise you going to be out by a lot of money and it will not be easy to sell what you have.
Was the package insured as might be worth seeing if you can get some compensation also the seller should help you out with this

Well I and others have had different experiences with VPI on the phone, mine mostly positive, others I know, the opposite.
You might try again, and ask for Mike, or just as you say
"move on". It is a big world out there, and plenty of ways to listen to music, vinyl and digital. VPI is a small company, that is selling probably about as much as they can make, and at times seem to get overwhelmed by the amount of interest. I don't think it is because they don't care. On the other hand maybe when you are selling more then you can build, you may develop an attitude ? You will have to decide how much you want to take I guess !! 2 sides to every story.

Besides the exact Model of Tuntable . We need to know what Tonearm is mounted on it . If it is something other than a VPI you might look elsewere for help .
