              You must have a low definition of "a fortune."

                considering i seen a boxed set of 1210's mk5's ( new ) on ebay selling for 3 grand i would say that if you invested in a set of these new ones ( limited editions ) you would get a healthy profit if you sold them in the future especially due to the fact that pioneer won't be making these again and they are extremely limited

                  "selling for" or "sold?" ...two entirely different things. I'm asking $100,000 for my cat, doubt i'll get it tho.

                  i was really getting at the idea of whatever proceeds these magical turntables bring being a "fortune" tho.

                      they were pretty dope for a turntable....

                      3 grans isnt too much money for many people, what if paris hilton wanted to try her luck with vinyl, shed drop em in a second

                        The funny thing is Technics got big because the direct drive motor they used had such good torque that a DJ could cue up a record at the speed it needs better than the other record players... So unless you need that in your life play your records on a cheaper one rich idiots lol

                          Re:

                          A decent 1200 or 1210 can still be found in the $550-$600 range which is affordable considering the longevity & quality.
