I don't need two of these superb cartridges. Having just found one with the original boron pipe cantilever, and decent suspension one has to go and it's not the one I have spent a couple of years looking for. ;)
It apparently has a Jico elliptical stylus fitted, but I can't see any marking to verify this. (I can't find the advert I bought it from either).
It sounds great, but it's not as good as the one I just bought.
I am basically after what I paid for it - £125 posted.
It won't come with any fixing hardware, apart from the nut and bolt holding it in the plastic case.

If anybody can confirm if that is a Jico elliptical on there, then that would be superb.
It does look very similar to this one: http://www.jico-stylus.com/product_info.php?products_id=655 and has the same black mark on the cantilever.
I was told it was a Jico elliptical, and I have every reason to believe it.
I originally bought it with a view to fit a Jico SAS, as it's one of the best MM cartridges ever made. I just didn't manage to get one before they stopped making them, and the subsequent price increase.
