Looks to be a good fit.
Why LP Gear?
To find a replacement needle for my old LAB 250 turntable.

Simple, easy, access to PayPal, and I love your vast selection. Only negative point is the 'delay' encountered when asking for help, if a certain stylus will work with a certain cartridge. Buyer need a NEXT DAY reply, because when I'm asking about something I found on Ebay, there is a tiny window of opportunity to actually BUY the item, and secure one of your styli for it....when you answer a week later--that's too late.

cheapest place I could find it! No one else carries even a cheap needle for the PC-220....
09/11/2018
For under $100, the Precept PC-220--with this new stylus installed--is an outstanding cartridge. I buy 'old' cartridges with broken stylii, then go to L.P. Gear to upgrade them. I have a Grado MTE, with the 8MZ stylus; and this Precept PC-220 sounds just as good. "Cheap" replacement needles are available everywhere--LP Gear has quality stuff--you pay a little more--but it's worth it!

It is the stylus specified for my turntable.

I've only used it once. It sounds great. My criticism is that the instructions for installing were terrible. But I can really tell the difference between the old stylus and the new. It came promptly, fit my turntable arm, was well-packaged, and works!

Why Trust Verified Reviews?
Verified Reviews are real, authentic reviews collected from actual paying customers, using Shopper Approved's Verified Review Platform. When reviews are Verified by Shopper Approved, you know that you can trust them to make better buying decisions.
Unverified Reviews on the other hand, are reviews collected by Open Review platforms that allow anyone to leave a review, without any validation or proof of purchase. Unfortunately, most reviews you read online are Unverified Reviews, and can't be trusted.
As a consumer, here's how you can tell the difference:
Verified Reviews from Verified Review Platforms like Shopper Approved, have much higher review counts and higher overall Star ratings, because they attempt to collect reviews from every single paying customer.
Unverified Reviews from Open Review Platforms, tend to have much lower review counts and more negative Star ratings, because people with bad experiences are primarily those who leave reviews. This often creates a misleading, inaccurate portrayal of a companies true reputation.
So, when searching for Verified Reviews, look for the name you know you can trust. Shopper Approved.
