Reply to Which Stylus/Cartridge?

I have just bought my self a single Technics 1210 Mk II turntable.

I am looking to use this deck to record my vinyl onto my HDD and potentially in the future, mix with another deck.

According to the seller,"It has a stanton 500 AL cartrige and stylus. the stylus though working has seen use, so to protect your records would suggest you replace it."

I am a complete newbie to turntables.

So my question to you is: What stylus/cartridge should I purchase for someone that is going to be using it to record vinyl and mixing between records?

I do not scratch!

Please bear in mind that I am a newbie to turntables. I have looked through the other threads on the community regarding cartridges and when I read oftcom, concords, tracking etc being discussed, it just makes no sense to me.

Someone please help!
