    The short answer is "not a lot"!

    The MMC cartridge, if it's a good one, is the most valuable part and is worth selling on it's own. You may get £50 for the rest of it.

    Ebay will be the best place to sell, without a doubt.

    Bit hard! The C75 are worth more than that if no foam rot! Difficult to sell though as big and no CD player. Shame as this is a fine music centre with an excellent amplifier. Far better than the rubbish you buy in Currys these days!

    1200 $AUS !!!! How much is that in £?

    MMC stands for Moving Micro Cross. The B&O equivalent of a Moving Magnet cartridge. Not made by B&O any longer and probably worth £50-70 or more on it's own, depending on type.

    Holy God!  If you really meant to type $1200 AUD and not $120 AUD sell it to him right away before you lose your chance!  Graham, thats about 500 GBP!

    Strangely enough there is one on Ebay for £500 at the moment.
