I am upgrading to the Mini-pro 2 and have my newly refurbish (by Gayle @ Nitty Gritty) available for sale. Unit is 2.5 yrs old and had the following done by Gayle @ Nitty Gritty:
http://www.nittygrittyinc.com/Fi_models.htm
REPLACE SUPPORT PLATTER PAD, VAC-SWEEP
SERVICE DRIVE MOTOR, REPLACE CAPSTAN RUBBER
FLUSH VACUUM ,* REPLACE INTAKE FILTER/COLLAR
COMPLETE SYSTEM CHECK; LIGHTLY REFURBISH UNIT
ADDED TWO COOLING VENTS
Unit has been used to clean approx 225 LPs and did a very fine job of it. I have the factory box. I am posting here first for my Polk friends before I move to 'the other site' - in 1 week. I purchased unit for $825 in 2008 + $100 for recent work.
I have expensive equipment and take meticulous care of it so it lasts me for a long time. Having the 2.5 Fi refurbished/serviced prior to sale is a testament to the prior statement.
Asking $375 (firm) + $25 shipping/insurance.
PayPal, Check (shipped once cleared), bank check/MO excepted.

This shouldn't last long.~ In search of accurate reproduction of music. Real sound is my reference and while perfection may not be attainable? If I chase it, I might just catch excellence. ~

I agree, if I didn't have a 3.5, I would love to have this one. -

Basically the same, except the whole thing is wood, no visible plastic showing. Mine has been refurbished, and works like a charm.

Wow, did Gayle do that for you or are you a master woodworker?[

I'll post some pics when I get home later this afternoon. It was labeled as "collectors edition" whatever that means.

Mine has a band of walnut in the middle instead of the oak.
Sorry, didn't mean to hyjack your thread. -
Whoa! That's pricey for a NG that only cleans one side. Nice, nonetheless. OK, back to our regularly scheduled program.~ In search of accurate reproduction of music. Real sound is my reference and while perfection may not be attainable? If I chase it, I might just catch excellence. ~

I like the looks of the 3.5 - very ellogant. I wonder how warm things got after 5 LPs?[
