That's a really nice price for that model in oak!

Also, check out the description. The seller has an interesting proposal in addition to the phonograph :lol:

Nice machine, and seems like a great deal. It would be nice to see what is behind the double doors. It might have the automatic ejector system, the pull out boxes, or regular slats. Sometimes they have a small drawer. Whoever lives near by, it's worth to check it out.

I passed right by there yesterday on the way back from a track meet with my son. Doesn't exactly sound like a family friendly stop, though.

I agree with Harvey... this machine looks like a Nonpareil, but he lid is similar to the one on my Deluxe / 200.

At any rate, a nice machine in oak.
