    Why don't you phone Expert Stylus? They made the original styli and may still have stock. I bought a brand new P77 stylus last year.

    When I got my Linn serviced a while back I took it to a fella in Crowthorne, between Wokingham and Sandhurst.
    I got him to fit an Ittok while he had the deck and was also going to ask him to put a Grado cart on there to replace the old P77 on my Basik arm as I couldn't get a replacement stylus myself .. and he told me why : he'd bought them all

    So I got one from him.

    I don't know how many he had/has, but it's worth emailing him : Simon Clark is his name http://www.theaudiofiles.co.uk/items.html

    To be honest £85 for a stylus with a paratrace tip (one of the best exotic line contact stylus profiles) is unbelievably good value. If you were to consider the Ortofon equivalent (i.e. a 2M Black with a Shibata) is over £350.
