I flipped 3 or 4 of these from estate sales over the summer....tube powered ones though. I was picking them up at estate sales for $20-$40 and selling them for $100-$200 (I got $200 for an early 60s RCA in very nice shape). Did simple recaps on them.

There's a decent demand for working period-correct functional record players out there, if you're patient. Right now I have a Motorola that's doing the same thing yours is, with the lack of a reject function. In my case there's a small tip broken off the arm that actuates the reject function, so it's not really repairable without a parts unit....so I'm not going to bother.
