I just found this 50 years old in my basement and it doesn't work. The turning knob turns freely. Is it worth anything? How hard is it to repair it?

They are selling (sold) not asking for around $25 done with free shipping which means the seller is netting under $10. Personally unless you are an expert at fixing, best to either sell as is to someone who can fix it or wants it for parts and sell the records off separately since someone may want to complete a collection.
