Rega RP8 Turntable and RB808 Tonearm, Virtually Mint

Description

I am re-listing this Rega, recently removed from my eBay listing as "sold", because the previous buyer purchased it in error. Please note that this is the slightly earlier "RP8" with the 808 tonearm/TTPSU power supply and not the "P8" with the 880 tonearm/Neo PSU power supply. The former has a hinged removable dust cover and removable outer plinth, while the newer model does not. In all honesty, I have used and listened to both models and could not tell any difference when coupled with my Koetsu cartridge. That includes the 808 and 880 tonearms because I have used both of them, with no discernible audio difference between the two.  I'll leave it up to the buyer to decide if the extra 00 for the newer P8 gets you a better sounding turntable.
So here it is again, the acclaimed Rega RP8 turntable and Rega RB808 tonearm. It is complete with the original box and packing, a manual, cover, TTPSU power supply, etc.. It was the back-up to my Oracle Delphi Mk V (see second photo), so it saw virtually no use, probably less than 100 hours. The plastic cover is in great shape with no cracks or chips, but it does have a couple of the usual minor faint scratches which are mostly unnoticeable. I can provide additional photos if necessary, but, again, these are very small and could easily be polished out if one desires.
Please note the Koetsu cartridge shown in a couple of the photos is NOT included - this is for the turntable/tonearm and accessories only. A new extra belt is also included. Not shown in the photos, but included, is the black factory soft platter mat.  Install a cartridge of your choice, and you'll be ready to go.
This is a very fine sounding turntable, durable, easy and simple to use, and I am only selling it as I have purchased yet another high-end turntable and just don't need three (or so my wife says, Hah, hah !)
The table will be carefully packed, double boxed, insured, and shipped via FedEx at actual cost. .
You can bid and purchase with confidence as I have been a life-long audiophile and carefully maintain my equipment. I will be listing this on a couple of audiophile market websites, so please note it may be subject to prior sale. Please ask any questions you may have and I will be happy to answer them.
