Q&A: I want to find out what to charge for my used copiers and printers?
Question by Waterstone: I want to find out what to charge for my used copiers and printers?
We bought two new copiers and are getting rid of several older copiers and printers purchased in 2002 and 2003. They are older, but still functional so we figured in this economy, fledgling businesses might want to purchase used equipment cheaply. I am not sure what to charge for them. Does anyone know of a site where I can figure out a fair cost? They are Ricohs and Xeroxes. I plan to list them on Craigslist…purchaser to haul away. We still have lots of supplies for the Xerox printers as well since we weren’t sure when the funding for the new copiers was going to come through from corporate.
These copiers and printers were $ 10,000-$ 40,000 when first purchased so I am pretty sure they are worth more than $ 35 now!

One thing is see if your xerox printers are on the list from xerox to be used as trade in on newer models. Contact them by way of their website or if you have a rep from xerox that handled your account they would have this info. Also were the xerox supplies purchased from xerox or part of your metered supplies? If purchased you can ship back to xerox for credit . If part of your metered supplies you wouldn’t be able to get credit and should sell the supplies separately. Check with your rep.
In regards to your Ricohs basically the same applies. You just need to contact the rep for those products. If you want to out right sell I would check on eBay, Craigslist etc. and see what they go for.
