VPI Classic Signature Rosewood As New

This VPI Classic Signature with JMW 10.5 3D arm is indistinguishable from new.  I bought as an open box unit (although it hadn't been removed or set up) just 16 days ago, from a member who had originally purchased it last December from a VPI dealer.  Manufacturing date was March 2016, but I was the first to remove it from the box and set it up just 2 weeks ago.

I used it for a week before deciding to bite the bullet and buy the 20k retail rig that I had really wanted all along.  Although this Classic sounded great, it couldn't stop the crazies.  Some of you afflicted probably know just what I mean.  Anyway, here's an opportunity to own this  Stereophile A-listed table and arm at the going used price. But it's new. The only thing you'll miss is the fun of breaking the seals. 

Ships in 2 boxes, 22 lb for the platter, and 60 lb for the plinth and everything else.  Buyer to pay $150 for shipping (I'll refund difference if it turns out to be less).  I'll pick up Paypal
myself. It's in the box and ready to go.
Thanks for looking,
Dan
