Flux HiFI Electronic Stylus Cleaner

Thanks Slaw!!  That's a deal.  Simple yet effective and overpriced device, which really gets the stylus clean.

Yup, it really works. The vibrating bristle pad gives some audiophiles the creeps, but I've never had an issue with it.

I own the Audioquest version of the Signet, and it works in much the same way as the Flux, based on what I read and photos.  It's very effective; the first time I used it on a well used MC, a big gob of dust fell out from the innards of the cartridge body; that was very satisfying. But I also use Magic Eraser.  Nothing beats ME for convenience, and I therefore use it before every play. Since the key to the benefits of cleaning the stylus has to do with doing it in the first place, I have come to favor ME.  It's like brushing your teeth after every meal.  Have any of you compared ME to the Flux or the Signet or the Audioquest/Signet? Maybe using one of the vibrators can be likened to a regular dental check-up, not daily care, at least for me.

I notice that some eBay vendor is charging $38 for shipping the Flux Hi-Fi.  Who(m) are they kidding?  The thing probably weighs a few ounces at best.  A gratuitous rip-off on top of the $154 cost.

Lewm.
Pretty sure that's because it's shipping from Germany.
All the ones I see on eBay are from Germany right now.
