Moving to Ireland from US

I'd agree that you might want to wait until you are there. Also, turntables don't always travel well, even if you have original packaging. I'd be worried about sending a TT overseas.

Pink Fish Media seems to be a pretty active forum in the UK. You might look for used gear there. Art of Sound is smaller, but another UK site worth looking at the classifieds of.

I agree with the above. Wait until you're over there and buy from a local dealer and establish a good relationship with them.
