Well, compared to the prices they charge for small bits of wood it looks something of a bargain to me.
£15k used for a £35k turntable. That's not bad. And even £35k is small beer compared to what you can pay for a tt.
I remember hearing a (then) £80k Rockport turntable 30+ years ago. It pretty much trashed an SME 30 in a direct comparison. Which was a bit of a shock. So, yes, sometimes you get what you pay for.

There's pisstaking then there's gold medal standard Shyster Muck pisstaking.

Donny Trump and his mate Vlad have probably got several already.
