Neon, you don’t realize how introverted the Japanese can be. If you live in Japan and own a cartridge that needs retipping, I’d guess it’s like finding alcohol during Prohibition. You have to know a guy.
I’m quite confident that there are retippers in japan who don’t speak English and do not want to be bothered with attracting non-Japanese speaking clientele. We travel to Tokyo every year to visit our son. We’re going again in late May. I’ll ask.
How do we know that there are not re-tippers in japan available for Japanese audiophiles? I would bet that there are such persons. The Pacific Ocean is a significant obstacle to their doing business in the United States.
