This looks like a really nice one.

Not a bad price for that model in that condition. It looks really nice and the record albums and paperwork are a bonus.

I agree it's a good price for the machine- But there is one "curiosity". They show a picture of the Victrola Decal, inside the lid. But that picture shows the decal against an oak lid. Obviously the machine isn't oak.

I was thinking exactly the same thing when I looked at all the photos. I'd suggest "buyer beware" and ask many questions.

Good catch Brad. I would have to agree with Jerry to ask a lot of questions. A good deal if legit.

As Brad has pointed out, it's evident that this machine isn't oak. Maybe the seller wanted to show the VTMCo badge but couldn't get a decent shot of it, so found this photo somewhere and used it instead. Question is, why bother? It does raise the specter of misrepresentation. And to what purpose?
