There are some minor scuff marks on the dust cover, and there is some peeling at the corner shown.
I used it about 5 years ago and it was working fine. However, I haven't checked it since. It's a direct drive, so the belt doesn't stretch like in a belt drive, so the rotation should be fine. When powered on, the rotation speeds of 33 and 45 RPM were normal. I checked with the light. The needle tip is still there, but the wiring at the back of the head was broken, so I soldered it myself, but I haven't checked if it's properly connected.
The rubber part of the brake that stops the rotation is missing, so it cannot stop rotating immediately.
The ground wire is broken, so I've taped it in place. I'll include the Emperor head and two record cleaners. The Emperor's stylus tip is quite worn. Please consider it a bonus. The instruction manual is also included.
