Send it to Soundsmith for a complete $300 rebuild and own a great brand new cartridge for less than $600. Or use one of the other reliable retip services for possibly even less. If you like I can ship directly to retipper.
https://sound-smith.com/cartridges/fixed-coil/zephyr-mk-iiiReview:"I was completely blown away when the new Soundsmith Zephyr Mk III ($1500 USD) humbled my favored Ortofon & Intact Audio SUT combo so significantly, both musically & sonically, and at about one-third their combined price, to deliver the most alluring live-like musical presentation I've ever heard from my Westminster Royal SE loudspeakers.
I love the way that Peter has voiced the new Zephyr Mk III phonograph cartridge. The Zephyr Mk III is naturally warm, remarkably musical, sonically excellent, exhibits a vivid musical presence, is dynamically superb, is tonally beautiful, resolve lots of meaningful musical & sonic nuance, exudes a high quality of construction, and is very affordable to rebuild so you can enjoy their charms for the long haul."https://positive-feedback.com/reviews/hardware-reviews/new-soundsmith-zephyr-mk-iii-phonograph-cartridge/Actual cart I bought:https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649482551-soundsmith-zephir-mk-iii-less-than-30-hours/
