Damaged Dynavector 20XL

Somehow I have managed to severely bend the sytlus on my Dyna 20xl (low hours). What are my best options here? Is retipping an option or should I just write it off an replace it?

You give your cartridge back to your dealer and he sells you a new one at a spiffy discount. My advice however would be, while you are at it, upgrade to the Karate. Not much more money but you will love the sound. Jim dynavector dealer.

Is the Karat that much better than the 20xl? Also, are any of you guys using the Karat with the VPI JWM9 tonearm? Looks like the Karat is a bit lighter than the 20xl. thanks
