I usually don't comment on crapophones because they are so  common--but this 
one needs to be seen to be believed.  It's a genuine  "Victrola".  It's so 
very ugly.  And the seller complains that some  "idiot" electrified it.  
Perhaps 
the seller needs to be electrocuted  himself.
Check out ebay #180308998185  You will love  it.

Does the Idelia on Ebay seem to anyone else like it might not be legitimate?
It just doesn't look right with Free shipping, Zero feedback, and no
response to a question.

I  have to admit, I found this very entertaining.  Made me feel a bit  
sorry for the seller actually, especially the bit about the stone and  
the cat.

This was also the first time I've seen a molded plastic platter on one  
of these.  In the '60s and early '70s, cheap generic phono motor  
assemblies (and tone arms) were sold for replacement and fabrication  
purposes, so it appear to go with the electric motor.  This one is  
right up there with the transparent cabinet Crapophone that appeared  
during the past year.  It's almost painful to even look at the images.
