selling used test equipment question..

This isn't really a for sale posting.. (one liner at the bottom if
anyone is interested). My question is has anyone had experience selling
used electronics equipment to these used equipment dealers?.. I'm
picking up a pickup truck load of stuff tomorrow and I'm trying to see
the best way to get rid of some of it.

Including what I'm getting tomorrow, I've got

Sorenson DSC150-7 150v 7a adjustable DC power supplies
Valhalla Scientific 2301 and 2100 watt meters
Tektronix OF150, OF235 OTDRs
Tektronix 2215 & 2215A o'scope, and Phillips 3217 o'scope
some other fiber test equipment, as well as other stuff.

For example, I've got an e-mail into American Test Equipment in Va..
they show for sale an OF150 for $4295, and an OF235 for $7750. I don't
expect that much for the equipment, but what should I expect?.. 50%,
25%, 10%?..

Anyone comment on tech-systems electronics?.. They are showing $995
for the OF150, around $400 for the scopes..

Just wondering how I'm going to get rid of some of this stuff..
certainly I'd rather have it go to an individual rather than a reseller
if the price was the same.. if anyone is interested in buying or
trading the e-mail addy is correct.

Thanks,

Jim

There's a posting from yesterday.. 'For sale Radio Receiver and
Spectrum analyser'..

no complaints in that thread..

Probably because at least it's blatant and up-front.
You seem to be trying to do the same thing (sell something) but are
pretending that you're not.

A quick google search shows 1270 hits for 'for sale' in
sci.electronics.misc

1270 wrong doesn't make yours any less wrong.

So, ignore the last paragraph..

A little late for that, don't you think?
