New Rega Planar 3 MM Cart recommendations

I recently purchased a new set up - Rega Brio amp, Rega Apollo CD and Triton 1’s (started with the the T7’s but quickly upgraded) I have an extensive CD selection but some of the things I want now are only available on Vinyl so I’m planning on getting the Planar 3. I’ve spent the past weekend reading about carts and I really want to go with a MM because the amp already has a phono channel for MM. It seems the reviews on the stock cart aren't that great so what are you suggestions for a MM around the same price as the Elys please (c.$300)

Thanks

 ... you should not accept a cosmetically defective product unless the dealer offers you a substantial discount. Personally, I would not accept it at all ...  As to the hum - the dealer should be dealing with that. When you buy new from a dealer, part of the price is service and support. Have the dealer fix it. Period.
That's good advice. Regarding the cosmetic defects, I wouldn't deal with Rega directly on that - let the dealer manage it.
