Other than scrounging through used stuff, Does anybody have a source for KNOWN GOOD or NEW ceramic or crystal cartridges for old phonographs? Not interested in playing the E-Pay lottery Icon_rolleyes . Reasonable prices would be good too.

Pardon me while I go back to scrounging.

It is getting to the point that I feel negligent for not dealing with phono combos:
