Platter wobble - too much?

Maybe so
But there are plenty of GEM decks out there and have never heard of one this bad so have to figure its a one off Friday night special.

Obviously up to the OP but needs to returned post haste whatever they decide to go with.

I wanted to make it clear that I didn't start this post to cast any dispersions on the manufacturer (which is why I didn't mention the brand).  They responded immediately to send out a second sub-platter when they (and I) thought the initial problem was a bent spindle.  I just heard back from them, and they are offering a refund or a repair/replacement - my choice.  I wouldn't want this one experience to color anyone's perception of the company or the specific table.  The manufacturer has been first class all the way, and the table sounds very good.    

Thanks very much to everyone for your help - it was good to get confirmation that the wobble was a significant issue.  And I'm glad that I could find one topic on which Audiogoners all agree :)

All the best, Scott

@syntax I do think it's a great sounding table.  I'm willing to forgive a one-off production flaw.  They handled the situation with the utmost attention to customer service.  

Glad they stepped up to the plate for you!
I really do think it was just a very unusual one off experience as they do have a very good reputation.
Good luck with your next table!
