6. Buy & Sell

The buyer who bought tonearm EMT997 through our "BUY & SELL"
two weeks ago posts following "BUY" request again:

Model Name: EMT Frantz cartridge TSD-15(round type stylus)

The buyer already has EMT927 record player and EMT997 tonearm,
so he wants to get TSD-15.
Only EMT cartridge can be installed to EMT tonearm.
Former name of EMT was EMT- Franz and BARCO took over EMT-FRANZ.
Therefore, BARCO only produces EMT products at present.
"WEST-GERMANY" is printed on the case of EMT products by FRANZ and
the mark on EMT cartridge by FRANZ is different from that by BARCO .
Round type stylus is only required.
