We buy used Hewlett Packard equipment, IBM, Compaq, Digital Equipment, and much more.

We welcome all offers to sell computer equipment, and we have only 2 rules in buying:

1. You must have an asking price. We get several hundred sell offers per day with prices, and cannot possibly evaluate offers with no asking price attached. Our best guidance is to offer the product at the low end of your expected range. If you're just shopping around looking for top dollar, ask a little more. If you're particularly anxious to get rid of it, ask a little less.

2. If we want to buy at your asking price, we expect you to be able to sell. We wish to deal with principals or their authorised representatives only. If we make a counter offer, we naturally expect that a representative would need to touch bases again with the owner.

Most computer equipment becomes worth less and less over time, until it's worth nothing at all. Eventually it becomes obsolete to the point that whoever hauls it off will want to be paid to do so. Our business involves buying equipment that is well on it's way down that road. We sell into the contract maintenance and logistics industry, which demands parts long after they are considered valueless at your local computer store or online webstore.

We are the world's number one source for a few select parts, and we will be very aggressive in pursuing them, in large quantities. Hopefully these parts are the ones you're selling.

Some people are not comfortable e-mailing a company that has visibility only on the web, so we'll first provide you with our company name and address, and then let you know the best way to contact us:

The best way to contact us is to use the link below that sends your message, and with a subject line that identifies your e-mail as coming from this site. This is important because most of our e-mail comes from dealer and broker broadcast lists; they don't expect an answer if we don't want the product, and we don't reply. If you use the link below to send e-mail, and you leave the beginning of the subject line as it is, we will give you the courtesy of a reply.

If we believe either that there is no market for the product, or that we already have an adequate supply of the product you're offering, or you're offering it at a price that's at least double what we would pay for it, we will reply with a polite "No Thanks". If we want it and feel your price is high, but not too high, we will make a counter offer. If we like your product at the offering price, we will contact you to make payment and shipping arrangements. By the way, we never open attachments, so don't send an Excel or Word file. Turn it into text and put it into the e-mail.

You're free to write, but we won't mail, call or e-mail a reply unless we want it and are willing to pay your asking price.

You're welcome to call, and most of the time we'll be able to give you a yes or no within about two minutes. If were lucky, we'll be selling something when you call, and if so we won't be able to talk. In this case we'll ask you to either call back or e-mail. This won't be done to blow you off - our favorite way to do this is on your dime and without typing a reply.

Below we are listing some names of manufacturers of product we buy. In addition, we buy products of some manufacturers not listed below. If in doubt, offer the product. The worst that can happen is a polite "No Thanks" or a counter offer.
