Experiences buying used cartridges

Most of us who belong to this forum have at one time or another purchased a few used cartridges. I wanted to start this post to discuss our experiences.
Would you do it again? Was it a good experience with an honest seller or was it a nightmare?

chaster,

I am willing to gamble, lets say 5 bucks on a used LP or CD but not hundreds. I have close friends who buy used cartridges and they have never had an issue. It’s just not my cup of tea.

You can buy an original Uriah Heep UK Vertigo LP or UK Castle reissue. Your money your choice.

As I write this I am listening to...no, I am experiencing the Sound Smith SG 220 that was for sale here.

Could not be happier!

Research the product, research the seller, chances are good you will do all right.
