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?
I had what you term "a good experience with an honest seller." Got a very gently used Ortofon Jubilee about 15 months ago for a great price. I've used it almost every day since and have no regrets.
The only time I would buy a used cartridge is if I planned on replacing or retipping the stylus. Other than that forget it. As a matter of fact that would be the last thing I would buy used!
