How Much Should I Sell My Used Power Chair or Mobility Scooter For?

Below is a very general graph that shows the average depreciation of a mobility product over time. It’s a very simplified illustration that is used to show a range of depreciation over years for products based on their original purchasing price. There is no real science behind the numbers, it is actually taken from numbers that represent used vehicle depreciation with a slight modification to the purchasing price.

In most cases, used power chairs or handicap scooters are classified as open-box (never actually used), slightly used, used and scrap for parts. If your product has noticeable wear-and-tare then you might want to consider selling it for 50% or less of what you paid as most people tend to want to save a lot of money when buying something that could potentially need repairs in the near future. Items that are open-box or slightly used can be sold for around 65% – 75% of the original purchasing price in most cases.

Every product is different, every brand is different too. The recommendations we provide are simply estimating selling price ranges that we have seen work in the past based on customer feedback. We recommend looking online to get familiar with new and used pricing from dealers online and in-person to see what a good selling or buying price would be for the make and model that you have. If you would like to get an estimated price for a used product, feel free to call us and our staff may be able to help.

How to Buy a Used Power Wheelchair or Other Mobility Device?

Whenever you purchase a used product online, you need to cautious. Many people out there will try and sell a unit that is defective without disclosing the fact that it has a defect. In some cases, products are being sold by owners who did not even know that the product had a defect.

Our recommendation is to download and thoroughly read the user manual for the used product that you’re considering. Once you know how the product is supposed to perform based on the user manual and other forms of research that you perform, you should be better prepared to ask questions and inspect the item you’re considering.

I Need To Sell My Power Chair Quickly, What Do I Do?

Selling a used mobility product is easy, all you need to do is have a camera or smartphone that takes pictures as well as a computer to access the web (which you already have if you’re reading this). First, you need to identify the product serial number, make and model. You will also want to take many pictures and videos if possible of the entire product from top to bottom so that your buyer can feel confident that the product is in the condition it is listed as. Once you do that, it’s up to you to create the listing in its entirety, add a relevant title and description for your product that you are listing for sale.

Try to gather as much info about the product as possible and include all of the details you can gather about your used product. The potential buyer is going to want to know as much as possible about the product before buying a used product that doesn’t come with a fresh factory warranty. If you take time to set up a great product listing that includes as much information as possible, you will save time in the long run from prospects that call or email you with questions.
