was just about to post regarding needles.
if your gigging, pubs/clubs... take your own. as old stylus damage the grooves in vinyl plus sound quality is not as good as it is coming from fresh pins.
I recommend ortofon concorde carts n stylus.
eta, although it does depend on what or how you play your tunes, ie; straight forward blends & mixes or turntablism/scratching.

Those are all final bids, the prices come up green like that when you do an advanced search on sold listings, very useful when you need to know what the going rate for something is

You keep talking about "damaged" 1210's.
One of the main things everyone likes is the fact you can hammer nails in with them and they'll still work. I've seen sets over the years that looked like they've been through a war*. They still worked fine.

A lot of the collect only listings for where I live end up being a minimal of a 300 mile round trip usually a much greater distance, and with the shifts I work it is also difficult to arrange a viewing and time/day to collect them. I missed out on a large number of decks due to that.
The only technics I missed out on that were a good price and a sensible distance to collect I missed out on as it was the middle of the month and needed to be paid and the price they were on gum tree don't think they were up for 48 hours.
With the damage it was 'missing a foot, damage to the tone arm or one of the buttons not working' correctly.

With the one that had delivery as an option your forgetting that having another bidder (myself in this case ) the price would have gone up.
All of January I watched pretty much all the decks I was interested in and the one you have picked out was an exception and would have cost more if I was bidding on the item. I out bids in on a number of 1200's and every time the price I was willing to pay was exceeded.
You can get the 'collect now ' ones cheaper but they were no good to me as I couldn't get to them.

Cheers will look into them.
I will mostly just be blending and mixing hopefully will be good enough to do some scratching and turntabalism stuff at some point and will try it at home a little.

For what ever reason the bottom listing has been relisted, doesn't mention anything in the listing as to why I has been.

Cheers, I know Piccadilly area so that with google should get me to a shop or two no worries. If anyone knows of particular shop worth going to in Manchester would be appreciated.
Got my train tickets sorted for London so looks like I have about 5 hours of record shopping before I have to meet up with me mate, by then i'm sure the shops will have kicked me out anyway for closing time.

I go to a little shop that keeps its new stuff in the store, and anything else in a warehouse but listed on Discogs. If I know I'm going, I'll take a look online, and arrange to pick it up at the same time as I can browse what's new in.
