It's brand new via Amazon.  The problem is the spindle is warped or off centre.  I have taken a video on the iPhone to show whats happening.  I am holding an allen key just touching the shaft at a couple of points with the lathe running at it's slowest speed.  An experienced opinion would be appreciated.  I have contacted Amazon who are trying to find a UK contact.
