Good evening
I’m looking for some advice before I purchase a standard x cabinet with motor, speed control , turntable . How easy / available are parts for these machines?
I see reproduction tonearms on eBay , I’d need the support for horn , the horn and reproducer .
Thanks
Dan

The parts you need wouldn't be too hard to come across with a bit of patience. Just don't get caught up in spending more than the machine is worth by essentially buying it ala carte. Just guesstimating... reproducer $125, horn $100 + shipping $40, tone arms approx. $100 each, horn elbow $50, etc.
