SME 3010-R Vintage HIFI High Quality Audiophile Turntable Tonearm

The SME 3009 was first introduced in the early 60's. It became a very popular tonearm, and is still highly regarded and sort-after by turntable enthusiasts all over the world!

The manufacture of SME 3009 Series II Precision Pick-up Arms ended in 1972. In response to many requests to reintroduce them for professional and enthusiast hi-fi application SME  produced the Models 3012-R, 3010-R and 3009-R. They are basically similar to their classic predecessors but with important refinements. This sale is for the 3010-R.

Crafted from thin-walled stainless steel, the 3010-R features a new design balance system with longitudinal and lateral fine adjustment. 

Optimised for 12” records, this tonearm offers exceptional geometry for accurate tracking. Manufactured primarily for the Japanese turntable market, it delivers outstanding performance and reliability.

Similar to the SME 3009-R Tonearm but with a longer length, and akin to the SME-3012-R Tonearm with an even longer reach, the SME 3010-R stands as a testament to precision engineering and unmatched quality in audio playback.

The most complete, compact wallet I've ever seen!!
This is the most complete, compact wallet I have ever seen, there is a space for everything, even coins. I ordered 2, one for me and one for him. Mine does not fit in my purse, it's 10 inches long. I'm debating, should I return mine or keep it. I've searched for one similar, less than 10 inches, and found nothing. He is so excited and happy, he has already filled his up. This is the only wallet one needs AND it's RFID blocking.

Excellent Family Passport Holder – Spacious, Secure, and Stylish!
Color: Black Wallet, Color: Black Wallet
I bought this passport holder for my family of five, and it has exceeded my expectations! It easily fits all five of our passports with room to spare — I’m confident it could hold a sixth passport comfortably. The layout is very well thought out, with six card slots, one clear ID slot, and a mesh zippered coin pouch that’s perfect for small items. There are also two roomy zippered compartments inside that could hold documents, tickets, or even some cash. I love the added features — an exterior slip pocket, a zippered pocket on the outside, and even a spot for a pen (which comes in surprisingly handy when traveling). The wristlet strap is a great bonus, making it easy to carry, and the main zipper closure keeps everything secure. The material feels durable and nicer than I expected for the price. It looks sleek, holds everything we need for travel, and keeps us organized on the go. I highly recommend this passport holder for anyone traveling with a family — it’s practical, well made, and very affordable.

Great wallet
Color: Black Wallet
These are great wallets; the size is a little big, they are roomy and not bulky. I do get a lot of compliments on the appearance of the style because of the size they are thinner than a bulky leather wallet and your stuff isn't scrunched up inside which makes it easier to locate. Love the look with the different colors and it seems to be a plus because of the card protector. I know they advertise as a vacation wallet but the comfort of the security and with the zipper closure makes it great for everyday use.
