When you’re in the market for used printing equipment, where do you look first? Most print business owners likely start online with a Google search for something like “used printing equipment.”
Each month, the average number of Google searches for pre-owned printing hardware is significant. For example, here are common search terms and the associated Google search volume:
used printing press - (800 global searches)
used screen printing equipment - (600 global searches)
used printing press - (200 global searches)
In North America and some European countries, the first results that show up are typically eBay and Facebook. However, sellers or buyers are increasingly cautious about transacting on these kinds of marketplaces due to the reduced quality control and the increased risk of scams, fraud, payment failures, and bad transactions.
Alternatively, you’ll likely find websites for used printing equipment dealers in your area. A limitation of this option is that the dealer may have a limited inventory and mostly wants to sell you something from that inventory. To find the equipment you are really looking for, you may find yourself bouncing from one dealer website to another and simply adding to your frustration and wasted time.
For these reasons and more, Printing Connect Online created our Used Printing Equipment page. Since its launch in 2023, this page has risen in popularity and traffic volume and is on its way toward becoming one of the print industry’s leading online marketplaces.
