Is that not a little top end priced for a Lenthall?
They are a nice sound though.

Maybe the 'gold needle bar' means something special ?
An offer could be made of course.
Like you say, they are a good sound - and this one has a box too.

Ridiculous price, even with box. That "gold" needle bar is simply a bit of gold paint that some bored person decided to add one day!
Some years ago I got into a tussle on Ebay with a certain person who shall remain nameless who was hell bent on outbidding me on every item I bid on. Between us he and I cleaned up all the Lenthall soundboxes that appeared on Ebay for about 12 months including unused shop stock and nicely cased examples. I don't think either of us broke the £50 mark on any of them.

Looks like it sold for £170. Crazy price.

All the buyer needs now is the gramophone :

Probably available for less than a third of the price of the soundbox.
