Need to slim down on the carts so first up is a Shelter 5000 MC. These are great sounding carts but I recently bought a 9000. Sorry but I have no idea on the hours on this but there appears to be a decent amount of life left on the stylus (see pics). The 5000 is probably my favourite sub £2k cart. New these are around £1600.
It comes in the pictured wooden box as I don’t have the original.
