Is this a good deal? Seller seems legit

 

I bought mine about a year ago. Searched around for the best price. I think I paid $65
$68 seems like a good deal to me.

 

In Italy = 139 €

2 years ago I payed 110 € in shop

 

Yes and then buy a Jico SAS for it and you are good to go!

 

I looked at this. I've bought from Adorama via Amazon before. No problems. I just decided to get the Denon DL110 instead.

 

Adorama is legit. I've bought photo equipment from them for over 20 years, with no problems.

 

Bought one two weeks ago. Good purchase and a good price. Nice aluminum box, screwdriver and brush, too.

 

Get it, as good a price as you'll find, give or take a buck or two.

 

Went to order it as it says free shipping to Australia but when I get to the final screen it changes to US $85.45 (Au$122.88) shipping bringing the total to Au$220.65!
Pass

 

If I can help keep your costs down, you're welcome to have it shipped to me, and then I will forward to you at a hopefully more reasonable cost. Drop me a line if interested. (I've done this for other Aussies before.)

 

Anyway, this is a marvelous cartridge when properly optimized. You gotta make sure the capacitance loading is right (approx. 250 pF from headshell through the phono stage to amp inputs), or it can sound dull/bloated.

I have one on my '50s Rek-O-Kut L-34/SME 3009 S2 unimproved, and it sounds pretty darn terrific.

 

KAB has them for $70. E-mail Kevin and ask what shipping will be...I bet it will be reasonable.
