Vintage Pioneer Automatic Return PL-518 Direct Drive Turntable - Works and sound great, but needs a little help. See what's right and wrong below. What's Right?1. It works!
2. 33 and 45 RPM speed is consistent with no fluctuations.

5. The body of the turntable is really solid with minimal wear to surface and printing
6. Auto return functions but needs adjustin...g.What's Wrong?
1. Needs new feet - the old feet will ship with the turntable (The original rubber feet dry rot on these turntables)
2. Needs new stylus - The old one will ship with turntable (You'd replace it anyhow right)
3. The tone arm clip does not clip onto the tone arm.
4. No cracks in dust cover but does have clouding and scratches (They all do it seems) You can choose USPS, UPS, or Fed Ex. Fed Ex might be the best way to ship an item of this size and weight.
