Understanding the market

Half of recorded transactions fall between $1,750 and $2,500. The full range runs 2.7× from lowest to highest, which is normal for used equipment where condition, included accessories, and service history vary between units.

What buyers should know

Hours of use is the single most important figure and the hardest to verify. Ask directly for the estimate, whether the stylus has been inspected under magnification, and whether a retip or rebuild has been performed and by whom.

This range reflects 13 recorded sales, compiled from publicly listed and completed sales elsewhere on the used market, not from HiFi Registry transactions. That is a large enough sample to price against with reasonable confidence, though condition and provenance still move individual units.
