A quick kudos to Slow Boat Records staff, who provided me helpful information about where in the world (or at least in Wellington) one can purchase an inexpensive yet in-good-working-order turntable. As this is a topic only vaguely related to their main trade, I was doubly impressed with how empathetic SBR staff were to my plight. Thanks, team.
