    Quad 303 restoration

    Why not Basf? I think they own Glasurit and a few other auto paint companies and you can try Azko-Noble, they do a few automotive paint lines.

    Quad 303 restoration

    Wiping the paint directly onto the supplied sample is very poor form, especially when it's obvious it's not an automotive part and hence they cannot assume the paint is 2k and tough as nails. They have special test cards for spraying the mixed colour onto, that's just laziness or ineptitude...

    The new Garrard 301

    Only $16k, I wonder if that'll get the 2hnd prices for the original ones even higher? For $16k what plinth and arm do you get and what is that price valuing the motor/platter at?

    Regarding proper/safe ways of dealings between forum members

    Spurge you had your chance to state your case, which the forum kindly allowed, Michon even went as far as showing you exactly what was required to do that successfully. You didn't follow that advice and posted a convoluted/jumbled up mess with no clear timeline or dates. It's impossible to make...

    Residual financing for secondhand cars?

    Some people like flushing money down the drain? All a warranty offers is peace of mind in terms of potential repair bills, it doesn't guarantee hassle free motoring. You could also buy an aftermarket warrantee for the Kuga for peace of mind in terms of potential future repair costs. I'd...

    Residual financing for secondhand cars?

    Op if the Kuga has been reliable, is only 7yrs old and barely been run in at 114k why sell it? Drive it till it actually gives issues, it will be a lot cheaper to maintain and repair the Kuga than to sell it for peanuts and need to make payments/residual on a newer vehicle.

    Determining the value of used audio gear

    Well you seem invested in the outcome of this nonsensical debate, you understand the concept of arbitrage I'm assuming because it is a common occurrence worldwide. Aren't you the guy that bought that Revox set for R9k from that guy in Plett? If so it makes this thread of yours rather ironic...

    Determining the value of used audio gear

    The OP has unrealisticlly high hopes if he expects to sell 2hnd gear for the prices achieved in the US/EU. The market there is huge, more buyers/collectors with fistfuls of cash to push prices up, comparatively here in SA the market is tiny and buyers probably have a fair degree less disposable...

    Clean equipment

    Blurry, poorly lit, equipment filthy dirty... But what truly amazes me is the stuff often still sells quickly and not because its a great deal. Maybe there's some kind of genuineness in something so poorly presented that attracts people. For some buyers I'm sure part of the attraction is...

    Advice on replacement tweeter

    If the tweeter still sounds fine then careful use of a vacuum cleaner normally can pull the tweeters out quite cleanly, depending on what it's made of. Look on ebay as well, you may find a replacement for a bit cheaper.

    Quad 33 restoration

    Are you using acrylic art paint for the lettering? How durable is it once its cured, pretty tough if I recall last I used some?

    Bying a cheap second hand car

    For R20k if its in good running order as it is its worth a shot, be careful though as the guy is giving it away even as French vehicle prices go. If you decide to go ahead with it make sure it passes a Cor before paying because some issues may mean it will fail and require some pretty expensive...
