Chilliwack is out the Fraser River Valley from Vancouver. It is close to one border with Washingington State.
Someone is downsizing.
The machine is a universal disk player, handling laterally cut records and both Pathé and Edison vertically cut. The ad shows pictures of Pathé and Edison styluses, but the text of the ad does not state that they come with the machine.
$599 CDN, about $445 US. -- negotiable

Video of the machine, I think.

The voice of the man in the video sounds very familiar to me... Don't know, but rings a bell or so...
And yes, he's the same seller of the Columbia 123a, just touch on the 'other items by this seller' button and this comes out in his website radi-o-antiks he explains why is he downsizing.

Yes, He does.
My retirement hobby is restoring technical antiques, in particular old tube radios, gramophones, phonographs and TVs. At age of 76 not collecting anything anymore, in order to be able to continue my hobby, and to create the necessary space I need to sell my finished restoration works.He also has a list of things he has and has not yet sold: https://www.radio-antiks.com/IndexRadio ... ale_11.htm
Very interesting.
