Garrard 301 or Thorens TD-124 ? Which do you consider better? Why?

So after spending more time with the 301 which I have in for repair, I'm kind of under its spell. I can't help but think it's better made and classier than the 124. It's the first time I've had a turntable in my house which I like more than the 124, and would consider changing it for. Not that this helps you too much!
 
I have a TD-124 and it's glorious, but I would like to pick up a 301 at some point to experience that pure idler sound (I like the aesthetics of the early Rek-O-Kuts and Russcos, etc, so I dig the "mechanical" vibe of the 301...) Wish I could've been a player for one of the 301s at the big McIntosh hoarder auction in CT, but it just wasn't in the cards right now. Did anyone else have any luck?
What big mcintosh hoarder auction?
