There is one cheaper but only one and its collection only so unless you're looking for open box, s/hand or refurb this is the best deal. £149.99 at Argos and more at Amazon.
Theses specs etc are from the Audio Technica site for the turntable only.
AT-LP60-USB turntable features
Convert your vinyl records to digital audio files
Mac- and PC-compatible Audacity software digitizes your records
Fully automatic belt-drive turntable operation with two speeds: 33 1/3, 45 RPM
Anti-resonance, die-cast aluminum platter
Integral Dual Magnet™ phono cartridge with replaceable diamond stylus
Built-in switchable phono pre-amplifier with RCA output cables to connect to audio systems and powered speakers
Just received this - it's the non USB model so you can't convert directly from the turntable... Groupon basically described it incorrectly. Going back.

Is this brand new or refurb??
The vinyl player is great for price but they have had a lot go back faulty from what I've heard and read

They don't advertise 'refurbished' therefore if they were they would breaking some consumer law, no doubt.

Hi, Can anyone who has ordered this deal from Groupon and has now received their order please confirm that the turntable model is definitely AT-LP60-USB and not just the AT-LP60 model; as the Groupon offer title says AT-LP60 and only under the photo is USB mentioned - in the specifics section there is no mention of Mac/PC compatibility enabling digital files to be recorded either. The photo provided on the Groupon deal can not be made any larger to be able to see the exact model description on the turntable front and Customer Services at Groupon could not provide any more information other than that already visible on the deal page.

Hmmm... Good point - looking at the pictures on the groupon site, the model description appears shorter than the USB one should be on equivalent pictures (call me sad :smiley:).
I've ordered one - but if it's not USB enabled then I'll just send it back. The site is quite clear in its description that it should be. We'll have to wait and see, and hope...

All the best with the return!!
