We have a winner - I don't think there are ANY authentic parts in this.

Actually, the id plate that's warped May be real. VV-IV Model to boot

slight possibility - but they're faking the ID plates

I especially like the way that "RCA" has been cast into the back bracket, for added authenticity.

The use of felt on the motor board is also a novel idea. One normally expects to find it on the turntable........

This is so hideous; so frightening; so repulsive... I cant stop looking at it!

Look at the ID plate. It looks like it is paper glued to a piece of brass cut with scissors. Look at the edges!

barfff... It's appalling they're trying to sell it for 300. I really hope no one buys it..
