Anybody here buy a cartridge from 'highendbroker' ?


    If you have, how did it go from start to finish ?

Personally I'd only buy a used (I'm assuming it's used) cartridge from a dealer I've done business with or someone I know in my very small circle of audiophiles. But that's me. 

@rsf507 I understand that for sure. Just looking to see what members here have experienced.

They (highendbrokers) offer a warranty, but, I`m not sure it`s worth much if it isn`t factory backed.

Define "higendbroker". Do you have someone in particular in mind? If so, much better to reveal the actual identity. If it’s 2juki on eBay, for example, he has a good reputation. I bought my FR64S tonearm from him, and I have been very pleased with it. Many others here have purchased cartridges from him. Chakster, who hasn’t been around here for a few years, at one point claimed that one or more of the eBay sellers (maybe including 2juki, but I am not sure) sell cartridges with non-factory serial numbers. I don’t know what became of that issue, or even if it is a real issue, but you might search these archives.
