Where can I get a replacement stylus for a BEOGRAM 2000, other than B&O or ebay ? Any suggestions would be great, and advice on the types that are compatible, Cheers

These were mentioned before for good prices/service.

Compatability of cartridge depends on which model Beogram 2000 you have.
The 1970's BG2000 will accept the SP range (except the SP15 which has a totally different fitting and you probably won't find in any case). The stylus can be replaced on these cartridges.
The later 1980's BG2000 will accept any of the MMC1 to MMC5 range of cartridges only and have to be changed as a complete unit as they are integrated. Soundsmith's SMMC4 would be my advice in this case.

In that case you want to go for an SP12 as this is the best of the range.
