[filmscanners] Re: sale value for used Polaroid SprintScan 4000
To the best of my knowledge, Polaroid, or their consigns still offer service and parts for the Sprintscan 4000 scanners. Since the product was made for Polaroid by Microtek, they may also have service and parts available. I would find $50 a very low price for a properly working SS scanner.

You need to be sure you are looking at completed sales. I have no idea what any of my film scanners are worth, but given the likelihood of a mechanical issue, I wouldn' t risk my reputation to sell a film scanner unless it has had a factory refurb. Especially true for old CCFT based scanners. The Polaroid is in worse shape for resale u nless Microtek is servicing them. --Original Messa ge-- From: Paul Patton Sender: filmscanners_ow...@h alftone.co.uk To: li...@lazygranch.com ReplyTo: filmsca nn...@halftone.co.uk Subject: [filmscanners] sale value for used Polaroid SprintScan 4000 Sent: Jul 16, 2009 10: 29 AM I recently tried to sell a used Polaroid SprintS can 4000 film scanner using an eBay sales service.
