    Reselling copier parts?

    Does anyone on here re-sell copier parts? I get them all the time, huge copiers too!

    I would like to sell the working boards on ebay, and get 30-300$ rather than 1.50 a #

    I've read on here that some do well with them on Ebay. I had some last year and joined a copy tech forum of some sort to inquire of your same question and most of the guys there said they either preferred or were required to use only new parts

    Well... that... is... lame, but like I said I would rather get 30.00-300.00 a # rather than 1.50 a #.

    Can you send me the link to the copier forum?

    I would also like to get into repairing copiers and printers, as I could be possibly getting a job into repairing them the next city over, thanks for the help Bear!

    Well like he said. The people who already work on them prefer or are required to use new replacement parts. I worked at big time toshiba copier dealer in Memphis. No used parts were used. Well according to the customer they were new. Not to shoot you down though. Best of luck selling for more than scrap.
