Description
?ª˜¨¨?ª˜¨¨¨¨˜ª¤.¸*•.¸*•¸? ? Super eBayer ??¸•*¸.•*´¸.¤ª˜¨¨¨¨˜ª?¨¨˜ª? I do provide excellent service to every buyer. Please see my feedback before you bid, and see that everyone is happy with my prices, my product .... and my service. Good Day Thanks for looking. In that this item is as costly as it is, I must lay down some ground rules. This is for local pick-up only in Locust Grove, VA 22508. No, I will not and cannot ship it, at least at this point. Next, no nonsense please. Im too old. Dont need it. Getting old is problem enough for me. This is a cash upon your absolute satisfaction sale and do not pay me until you are gloriously happy, pulling out of our driveway. Please read the following: I bought out an entire recording studio, lock stock and barrel for a tidy sum. Among the items was this table. Comes with manuals and vintage warranty registrations. I listed it previously incorrectly, so I opened up the box to take appropriate pictures. I also contacted Jim at VPI, and here is what he told me. Its definitely an Aries 1 model, circa approximately 1994-1995. The arm is indeed a 10-inch (you only measure the armtube) JMW metal unipivot arm. A very solid, substantial table in its day, and lots of them still running from ~30 years ago. And, I received this from a fellow trader kind enough to share his knowledge. One thing VPI didnt tell you about your particular Aries 1 is that in place of the stock platter that came with the table, yours has the platter from the VPI TNT 5.The Aries had a real good platter: 1.25; thick, comprised of a 7/8 thick bottom section made of aluminum (onto which was bonded a thin sheet of lead, covered in cork), with a 3/8 thick top layer of Delrin. The same platter came on the TNT 3 and 4.The TNT 5 has a great one: 1.5; thick, the bottom section 5/8 thick stainless steel (no lead sheet), with a 7/8 thick top Delrin layer. Thats the platter you have, and its the one most VPI aficionados consider the best platter VPI has ever made. Congratulations, it (and the Aries table) is a beauty! There is full inspection available to the buyer, but no returns for any reason, once it meets with your approval. Buyer expected to pay local sales tax as well, so please come prepared, and do not say that this is all you brought. Must be picked up with 3 days. Thanks in advance. Enjoy the music. Dance while you can, and every time you can. Please see my other GREAT items up for sale on ebay!!!
