I wouldn't buy it either, for different reasons. The photography and lighting were suboptimal. When cleaned up and the whites balanced, its colors resemble an MSA of the late 1970s to early 1980s. I had one back in '81, and I did not care for the finger-stop in the changer. It was made of aluminum and would notch and detune.
