Nice turntable to have Sachin. Looks like in excellent condition. Congrats !

Looks great!

Could you PLEASE list down all details on the documentation / paperwork that was required to get this beauty land up on your doorsteps? This would be of great assistance!
1. Was it shown a sale transaction?
2. Its a used piece, so what was provided ... invoice etc etc. Am a noob in this import respect, that too of used equipment.

A known procedure would be truly helpful for less-endowed people, like me :sad:

Congratulation Sachin! Now work starts for you

Cheers and all the best...

No paperwork was required from my side.This was my second TT import.First was Micro Seiki from US.
1.Yes it was shown as sale.I asked him to declare original purchase price,so I would produce Paypal invoice incase anything goes wrong.
2.I asked him to write Turntable in item description(no new or used).

Regards,
Sachin
