Beogram 8000

I’m just posting to see if anyone here would be interested in a beogram 8000. I have one that I would like to sell. It doesn’t have a working cartridge unfortunately ,the Mmc 20cl is with it but appears to be broken. The turntable runs and changes from 33-45. The arm runs back and forth smoothly. It doesn’t have the cable with it, it only has the power cable. It will need some work but it is in nice shape generally. I’ve looked at other examples on eBay etc and I’m asking $475 which I think is very fair. I would like this to go to a good home as this was owned by my aunt and run in a system with Macintosh amps. If no one wants it, can someone recommend a good place to list it as I’m not a fan of eBay.

Unfortunately, these have value only with a working cartridge, due to the unusual mounting.
I'd suggest you troubleshoot the cartridge issues, often there are wiring issues with linear travel arms.

Hopefully that's all it is, and you can use it or sell it for decent money.
 
Or else expect scrap value, less than $100, it is useful as a parts donor only.
A person needing parts may pay decent money.

B & O was never a volume seller, and no longer make audio equipment.
Turn tables are even more difficult to sell, particularly broken ones from a company known for eccentric designs.
