Bent Stylus....what to do?

Hey Fellas, I recently sustained some damage to my Grado Ref Stylus. Took it to the dealer and they highly recommended a new cartridge. The stylus was slightly bent inwards. Will this damage the LPs?. What happens if I don't replace the Stylus. I have not decided on what to do, yet....Would appreciate your input.

I'd not take a chance with a bent stylus. Back in college days, I ruined some good LPs by playing them on a damaged stylus. Replacing the LPs cost much more than replacing the stylus, and some were out of print
Don't take. a chance with your LPs.

I can’t believe I *still* forget to check the date range of some threads.
