Shootin' Star I'm lookin' for a set of Technics 1210s to get my old vinyl collection up and running again. I'm in California and need 2 decks. Unfortunately I sold mine 8 years ago and they were a rare pair. So frickin' stoopid. Anyway, I'm looking for places online to buy, have to be in good condition with minimal defects. Still have some gold tipped needles which I didn't get rid of at the time of the decks, guy was trying to get them for nothing. Had a look on
www.used.forsale/turntables
and doesn't seem too bad. Where else can I look? Would be amazing if I could find a set in Cali.

1210s suck, they just have all the fanbois that are shit at mixing, get a pair of stanton str8-150`s instead
they are made for battles and general use, and mixing on 4 decks, 1210s break as soon as you scratch or use them too hard http://www.stantondj.com/stanton-turntables/str8-150.html

Mine are nigh on 20 years old, and work as well as the day I got them.

I just sold on my 1210s to pay a few bills (again) must be the 8th pair of decks I've gone through now. I tend to buy them when I have the money then they get sold again when I need money XD; always hold onto my vinyl though.
The 1210s were actually my least favourite out of all the ones I've had. Plenty of other as good, and better decks out there.
back on subject though, ebay is probably the best bet these days.

str8-150 are why technic`s stopped selling 1210`s, if you have a club or venue with alot of style playing, str8-150`s won`t let any music genre down by breaking when someone starts to scratch or does alot of rewinds etc, and the stylus won`t break or start to bounce
the motor has 4x the torque of a 1210, the pickup will pickup and the motor won`t need a push start or maintenance every month
str8-150 are`nt aimed at nothing, they are just built for all general use

I always scratch with my Technics (they are actually 1200's, my apologies).
I'll not sell them just to buy an alternative pair but I appreciate your suggestion is gratefully noted.

i did`nt tell you to buy a pair, i said the OP would be better of with str8-150`s instead of sticking to crap old 1210`s
you will probably have to buy new decks, because they don`t break often

I didn't say you did tell me to. In any case, my 1200's have served me perfectly well with regular use, and they were manufactured in 1996. I would recommend them, anyway.
Please don't quote me any more in this thread.

i`ll quote all i want, if you get a pair of 1210s on ebay or somewhere for $500, they will need $200 in maintenance when they are delivered, in the long run you are just better off with some str8-150s
