Hi Mihai, ... needless to mention that vendors often offer special trade-in prices for "old" equipment if a company is life-cycling their stuff.
some of the equipment gets refurbished and sold through brokers, some gets shreded to salvage some gold and I strongly believe that most of the equipment that was initially in mid-europe and ran there for 3 to 5 years gets a second life in eastern europe, africa or south america ;-) br Ralph ----- Am 12.
