Where to buy old separates for system? (online/in person)

nimrod86

Hi guys,

Recently got myself a full stack of Technics separates and I'm absolutely in love with it! Here's what I've got so far:

• Technics SU-X320 Integrated Amplifier
• Technics PL-J28A CD Player
• Technics RS-X320 Double Cassette Deck
• Technics ST-X302L Tuner
• Technics SL-J110R Turntable
• Technics SB-CS60 3 Way speakers

I've been scouring eBay and Adverts on the hunt for a Technics SH-E51 Graphic Equaliser to complete the setup, but haven't been having much luck Adverts has none, and on eBay there are only two for sale at the moment in the UK, and with postage and import charges now the cost of them is doubled and just not feasible.

Is there anywhere else I'm missing online (or even in person) I could try in my hunt for this equaliser?

Thanks in advance!

you could try france, germany etc., the local ebay or donedeal equivalents.

Thanks, will give that French Donedeal equivalent a try! Hopefully some of the sellers are open to posting internationally!

I did try selecting Worldwide on ebay.ie, but in the past I've found that I'm still missing stuff that's on ebay.co.uk, so I'll give the regional variants another try!

if a seller only posts to france, or italy etc. then it wont show on a worldwide search in ebay.
You can ask the seller if they’ll post and they may agree

Ah! That explains that, thanks for your help. I've messaged two sellers on leboncoin so hopefully one might be willing to post!

Just want to say a big thanks for that link to leboncoin.fr

Got talking with a seller on there, and I've ended up getting an amplifier, cassette deck, radio tuner, and CD deck - as well as the equaliser I wanted! All for €50 + €75 postage as it all weight nearly 20kg! The equaliser on it's own is around €200 on eBay from the UK, so great savings made!

Seller was very helpful and very willing to post internationally luckily, though communicating in French through google translate is "interesting" some times!
