Soundsmith in New York can replace the cantilever if the motor isn't damage. The cheapest option is 150 bucks. They have 3 option going up to 350.
Hope this helps. I have the same cart with a broken can't. I bought it broken to have it repaired.
I've read a lot of negative reviews on this cart but I've never heard one myself. You liked it? What type of music do you enjoy? Mine is the first edition of it.

It's one of those "love it or hate it" cartridges.

Like a Decca, lol?
I should get mine fixed.
I used to own the Blue Point, 3 of them, possible to get sounding good but always had a hard sound. My biggest qualm was with its tracking abilities. I dropped vinyl for years, then entered back with the affordable at120e, eve. This mm outperforms the blue point in all aspects, and tracks inner grooves like a champ IMHO.

I have heard the same cart (Blue Point Special) with the $350 soundsmith retip, well worth the money, much nicer than the Goldring 1042 I had.
