Where to sell stairlift
If you are thinking, “where can I sell my stairlift?”, then look no further than our used stairlift online store. Besides selling used stairlifts for very low and
attractive prices, we also buy stairlifts from people who intend to sell them. Usually our shop purchases stairlifts from homes where the owners intend to move out and decided not to remove their stairlifts and install in their new homes.
There are times when the home has no need for the stairlifts as the user of the stairlift has recovered from their injuries. Therefore, the owners want to sell their stairlifts while it still has residual value. A typical stairlift has a useful life of ten years and it still can fetch a decent value if you sell it within 5 years time. The first place to look for dealers who will buy your stairlift will be the local newspaper classified section. You can approach any stairlift dealers and if they do not buy back old stairlift, you can ask for referral to other dealers who trade used stairlifts. As long as your stairlift is still functioning well, there will be willing buyers for it.
You can contact us and we will send our engineers down to assess the value of your stairlift before proposing the price that we are willing to pay for your second hand stairlift.
Price of your stairlift
Our online store has a way of assessing the value of your stairlift. We look for the general wear and tear conditions of the stairlift and decide if we have the necessary skills and parts to upgrade the system to a condition suited for re-installation. There are many costs involved for stairlift resellers. Besides upgrading the older stairlifts for sale, we also have to bear the cost of removing the stairlift as we do not encourage owners to do it themselves. There may be more damages to the stairlift and affect its resale price.
What we look for before buying your stairlift
When we send our engineers to assess the value of your stairlifts, we generally look out for a few things that affect the value of the stairlift the most. First, we will request for the age and brand of the stairlift. The age of the stairlift will determine the useful life of the stairlifts and the remaining years. It will also determine how much work and refurbishment we have to apply to your old stairlift to extend its useful life. Secondly, we will request for the maintenance report to know when was the last time the stairlift has been serviced. We find it surprising that there are owners who do not take care of their stairlifts and do not service it for 5 years. This will affect the value of the used stairlift if you wish to resell it in the market. Our store usually do not accept stairlifts in bad conditions as the upgrade cost is more than the selling price. The other important component we check is the electronic controls of the stairlift. We need to ensure that it is still functioning because it is more expensive to replace the electrical parts compared to the mechanical parts.
