One of mine is fucked, both cart and headshell. Is anyone selling one/a pair fairly cheap? Don't need anything fancy just something to tide me over until payday.

Safe!

I could lend you one of mine, but I think the needle's fucked.

Mate that would be absolutely amazing, I think the needle on my existing one is ok (just a loose connection inside the shell somewhere) so if they're compatible I might be able to transfer it over. Safe!

Edit - just to clarify its the full unit that you tighten directly into the tone arm, not just the bit with the needle that screws onto the headshell jobby. Wasn't sure if that was clear or not!

Yep, I bought a new set coz I've misplaced one set (don't ask). The spare one I have is a crappy numark cartridge + headshell if you want to borrow that for a bit. I'll bring it along this evening.

Mate if you could bring it tonight that would be amazing, can't last a whole month with new decks and no way of playing shit on one of them! Cheers

I ebayed a cheap as fuck shell/cartridge for like 9 quid (new)..... Not saying that's a good idea but it's a decent "tider over".
