What Cartridge Manufacturers Will Retip Their Moving Coil Cartridges For A Fee?


What cartridge manufacturers will retip their moving coil cartridges for a fee?

I have a $3k Sumiko cartridge....Sumiko offers me $900 credit for my old cartridge towards the purchase of a new $3k Sumiko cartridge.

Next time I buy a new cartridge, I'd like to buy one from a manufacturer that will retip it for a fee.  Do any manufacturers of moving coil cartridges do retipping?

I prefer the offer of a fresh recently inspected new cartridge for a discounted price.

Audio Technica: I sent my AT33PTGII in to see if it's stylus was worn as I expected.

Yes, it is worn, we have a program to sell you a new cartridge for $_____

Half the price when purchased a few years prior.

Yes please!

Everything new, including fresh suspension which is often forgotten, recent inspection for output specs and truly straight/aligned cantilever/stylus tip.
