IKEDA Sound Labs IT-407 Satin-finish Tonearm USED with box, head shell, cable

Description

I am the original owner of this Ikeda Sound Labs IT-407 12" 307mm tonearm. I usually show more professional photos than I am using here today, but I was not willing to unmount it just to take photos. If it does not sell, I will be keeping it so just did not want to go through the hours involved in dismounting it and remounting it for no reason. The photos used do a fairly good job of showing the condition of the tonearm. There are very few marks on the arm or base. You can probably tell, if looking closely, that it has been mounted, so it does not look exactly as new, but looks quite nice. It has been mounted on my Micro Seiki since new, over ten years ago.
You will notice 3 dabs of material running from the base to the armboard, these were placed so I would be sure that the arm would not be able to move on the armboard, as the mounting nut was tightened. There is a slight possibility that the surface of the mounting collar would be marred slightly as I clean these off, though I tend to think it would be not severe if it occurs at all.
There is only one aspect of this arm that is not exactly as it was when I installed it, and it should be noted. Several years ago I snagged the monofilament line which supports the weight for the antiskate, and pulled it loose from its attachment to the base. This was reattached to the base with an epoxy resin in exactly the same place as the original attachment. This is in no way a functional issue and affects nothing outside of the fact that there is a small black bead of epoxy to secure the line to its mounting, which was not there originally. This area is best seen in the black and white photo. This has remained in place for many years now and I have no reason to believe that it would ever become unattached again unless it is snagged and pulled on quite vigorously, as happened originally. Again, this has no effect at all on the hanging weight as the length of monofilament line is unchanged from stock, is still the original line, and the mounting location is identical. Price has been adjusted downward accordingly.
This arm comes with the original matching serial number box, still in the original plastic outer covering, and will come with everything that was in the box originally. The original Ikeda headshell leads have never been used and are included. The original Ikeda tonearm cable has never been used, and is included.  All the original paperwork which came in the box will be included.
The off brand headshell and cartridge shown in the first ten photos are not included.
This is a lovely tonearm in excellent, one owner condition, well cared for. I have tried to price this attractively.
