Lyra Titan: Stylus broken during shipping

Analog friends; I've a question.

I purchased a Titan i for the second arm on my tt. It's a dealer demo cartridge described as "best condition".

This one arrived yesterday:

Did anyone of you ever had a damage like this on transport? The cartridge was very well packed in original box with stylus guard. Btw. it was impossible to find the broken stylus in the box.

Thanks for sharing your experiences,
Marco

I agree with JFrench. I have never seen a as new demo lyra cartridge that dirty around the the wasabi paper.

If it was packed in the original packing with stylus guard, I cannot see how the stylus couls snap. Regardless the stylus should be in the box.

Return it for a refund or a new one.

Did it come from overseas? In that case it's possible that someone in customs may have opened the package for inspection.
