  • Cash offer, on the spotFair
  • Store credit, same offer+20%
  • Anything we can’t buyTold kindly

We buy gear to restore and resell it. That means we price against the bench cost of putting it right, which is why a dead receiver still has real value here and nowhere else.

Get a heads-up number first

Fill this in and Marcus will come in with expectations set. You still get the counter offer in person; this just starts the conversation with the facts on the table.

Thanks. This demo form doesn’t send anything anywhere, but on the real shop floor Marcus reads these every morning.

One owner’s upgrade is another’s first system

Everything you sell goes on the floor restored, warranted, and loved. That’s the deal.
