RARE* PHILIPS FP 440 - ELECTRONIC LINEAR TURNTABLE - WORKIN À VILLIERS SAINT BENOÎT

*RARE* Philips FP 440 - Electronic linear turntable - working condition. Hi, I'm selling this beautiful turntable because I've got no use for it anymore. It's a Philips FP 440, a rare turntable which have the oddity to have a drawer like loading mechanism. This unit works fine, the drawer is not jammed and opens as expected. I've never opened the unit for maintenance so it might need some to make it last longer. At least, it still works. It has some light scratches, here and there, due to normal usage. There's a bigger scratch on the top (see pictures) but that does not prevent the unit to work and should be easy to get off with the right technique. It still has its original stylus and the 33rpm to 45rpm disc adapter, located in the drawer. There's also the small brush that came with it, cleaning the stylus each time the drawer is opened. It has power cable and audio cables hardwired in the unit. The power supply is 220V only. I'll send the unit using the UPS standard service, sorry for the high shipping cost. I never had any issues shipping fragile items with them. The unit will be well protected and all moving parts will be secured. The shipping costs takes into account the packaging itself I have to provide and the fact that I have to drive 60km, round trip, to go to the nearest UPS Access Point. So that's why the shipping cost is a bit higher than you should expect (I added approx 5€ for packaging and fuel). Sorry non-European buyers, the shipping cost is too high for non-European countries (almost 120€ !) and I don't want to take the risk to send the unit that far, I'm sorry. If you want more photos (or even videos) or more info, feel free to send me a message. I'll answer as soon as I can. If you have any doubt, ask me, I don't accept returns. Thank you and happy biding.
