View Full Version : Is there such a thing as a headshell box?

I've got a whole buch of headshells with carts on them that I could do with keeping in something safe ...

Is there anything?

Maybe with the right size slots for them to sit in so they don't rattle about?

Most of them are fine in the money box I have them in as most have stylus guards ... The nagaoka mp11 with its little exposed cantilever is just begging to be damaged though!

Any thoughts?

Worldwide going from UK Ebay won't show you everything, though things have improved recently I have noticed :)

Only stuff that is advertised on Ebay.com will show in a worldwide search. It won't show stuff advertised only on Ebay.de (Germany), or France or Belgium or Spain etc... Unless they are also on Ebay.com or whatever the big one is...


For a long time now I have been logging into foreign sites to find stuff :D
