I’ve got a pair of Technics 1200 Mk2s that have been sat in their boxes now for years. Depresses me that they are just doing nothing. Wondering how much demand there still is for these in 2026? Has everyone moved on?

 

First bought approx 20 years ago, one brand new and one in very good used condition, and used mainly for scratching. There are some superficial marks etc on the outside casing, but as far as I know everything was working flawlessly the last time they came out of the box. How should I go about testing them? What are the common failures, etc?

 

Should I get them refurbed before attempting to sell, or sell as is? How much generally should I expect them to be worth in either case?
