Buying A Cartridge Direct From Japan

Dear Duvallite: It's not so easy for a foreigner person to buy in Japan with out been there.

Cartridges are a very delicate items nad more than one time cartridges can comes with problems and you will have no one to claim for it.

I think that if you don't have enough money to bought a cartridge it's better even buy it second hand through sites as Agon.

Does anyone have a direct source in Japan for purchasing Denon cartridges for less than Comet Supply? If so, please provide source.

Better to buy second hand thru Audiogon? How much did they pay you to type that?

Especially considering the delicacy of a cart, I think a new new cart, shipped insured and packed correctly from any country would be less of a risk than going through Audiogon second hand.

While I have certainly bought second-hand carts here, I understood the risks I was taking and for the price asked was willing to accept that risk.

But would I sleep better buying new from Japan than 2nd hand from Audiogon? You betcha.

Dear Viridian: Could you share your source in Japan?

Thank's in advance.
