Most of us who belong to this forum have at one time or another purchased a few used cartridges. I wanted to start this post to discuss our experiences. Would you do it again? Was it a good experience with an honest seller or was it a nightmare?
Buying a used phono cartridge for me would be like buying a used Tooth Brush! The used cartridges I do have were included with used turntables I'd purchased. If I liked them I changed the stylus or had it retipped.
I am willing to gamble, lets say 5 bucks on a used LP or CD but not hundreds. I have close friends who buy used cartridges and they have never had an issue. It’s just not my cup of tea.
