I'm no expert on Rega vs. VPI, but I do own a P25 w/a Benz Glider. Judging from the used prices on A'Gon, $750 for a used P25 is "in the ballpark". Or, you can get a used P25 with a cartridge in the $800+ range, if you want to deal with shipping to you, etc. If you are "tempted to snap it up", & it's in nice condition, I'd say go for it. It would be great if it includes the original box as well. The P25 may be a "no brainer" at that price. (Like Bigtee said, even a used VPI Scout will cost you a lot more).
Bottom line, I don't think you can do any better for $750. I keep thinking about upgrading from my P25, but a sig. upgrade would cost at least 3 times as much, IMHO. Just buy it! You can always unload it for that amount should you decide to sell. Just my 2 cents.
