Benz Ebony L retip

I am looking to get my Benz retipped.  I also wish to keep the original boron cantilever, condition permitting.

I does not appear that Benz offers these services so I am down to van den Hul, Soundsmith, Expert Stylus (UK) and Northwest Analogue (also UK).  Any one have experience with these names and if so:
1) make and model of cart?
2) work done?
3) approximate time taken?
4) level of satisfaction and how close to the original cart sound was the retip.

Thanks

Why not take advantage of the retip exchange or upgrade programs offered by Musical Surroundings (Benz distributor for North America)? You can either swap out your Ebony for a new one or receive sizeable credit toward a Ruby or LPS.

There were some availability issues with Benz cartridges in the past, but those have been resolved and there's healthy stock in the US.
