Sony XL-55 Pro

Can anybody tell me approximately what this is worth?

Sony XL-55 Pro cartridge, original case, original box, spare, brush, and original manuals. See picture.

Needle is broken off.

Thanks

I've heard these can be worth around $800. Is that about right or is that inflated? Also, how much less is it worth because of the needle being broken?

Thanks

Sold mine in Europe for 100 euro.......but that was very cheap. I dont know if you can get a new needle for this kind of cart.

Rettiping that beauty is going to be expensive, if you can have someone do it, that is.
It´s a very, very good cartridge, though.

I am wondering what it may be worth un-retipped.

Not much, I´m afraid.
Retipping costs about 90% of a new cartridge.
