Hi!
 
Is there a reason you don't recommend the Lenco L-85 or L-65?  I ask because these two have popped up in the local craigslist and I'm looking to buy.
 
Thanks!

I would have thought Project turntables would have featured on your list

Lenco L-65 and 85 (http://www.thevintageknob.org/THEVAULT1/L85/L85.html) arn't as popular as the L-75/78 amongst enthusiasts because they are later '70s belt rather than idler driven so arn't contenders for a poor mans Garrard / Thorens TD124 mantle. They do the look the same as the classic Lenco's though and are just as tweakable. I wouldn't worry too much if you find one for a good price it's a very fine starter turntable with a lot of potential, still having the same Swiss build quality.
 
Pro-Ject arn't on the list and neither are Rega, not because they don't make nice turntables but because the list was all about vintage bargains for those who can't afford newer budget decks like these, but still want to check out spinning some vinyl.

I have found a few turntables on kijiji that look alright. Some input would be great.
 
Denon DP-37F - Is being sold with a bunch of other stuff, doesn't want to sell it piece by piece. But I may be able to convince him otherwise. Not sure how much he would want/I should pay for it.

Any advice?

I don't see any mention of some of the old Sharp 'woodys' - are they generally regarded as not worth the time?
 
Thinking about a Sharp RP-203A, myself.
