I have one like this (without the hackjob) that i picked up 6 months ago. I lucked out as i only paid $25 for it. I powered it up slowly with a variac and believe it or not everything still worked. I moved this to the front of my list of ones to be restored. Cool thing about this combo is that its not any bigger than a regular radio/record player combo of its day except for the fact that its just a tad deeper. This seller has to be out of his mind. Luckily he didnt do anything that cant be reversed but at that price who wants it?

Tony, that's great! At least you know that once you start replacing caps, what you already have can only get better!
