We Buy Used Professional Projectors
Sell your used Christie, Barco, Panasonic, Digital Projection, and Epson projectors — outright buyout or consignment. We purchase large-venue laser and lamp projectors from venues, rental houses, and AV integrators nationwide. Fast quotes, insured freight, and payment within 24–48 hours.
Who We Buy New & Used Projectors From
We buy used projectors and projection equipment from venues, houses of worship, universities, corporate campuses, production companies, AV integrators, rental houses, and IT recyclers. Whether you're looking to sell a single high-end Christie or Barco projector or liquidate an entire inventory of decommissioned units, we want to hear from you. Organizations across the country trust StradEvents to provide fair, no-hassle offers on their surplus professional projection equipment.
Used Projectors & Lenses We Buy
We focus on buying used professional, large-venue projection equipment — typically 8,000+ lumens — in both new and pre-owned condition. Laser and lamp-based units alike. If you're looking to sell a used Barco projector, offload a surplus Christie Crimson, or liquidate a fleet of Panasonic large-venue units, StradEvents is your buyer. Here's the used projection equipment we're looking for:
Projector Bodies
Single-chip and 3-chip DLP, LCD, and laser-phosphor projectors from major professional manufacturers including Christie, Barco, Panasonic, Digital Projection, and Epson. We buy new and used projectors across all major product families — from the Christie Crimson and Griffyn series to Barco UDX and G-series, Panasonic PT-RQ and PT-RZ lines, and beyond. We evaluate based on technology, lumen output, resolution, lamp/laser hours, and overall condition. Complete units with lenses are preferred, but we'll consider bodies only.
Lenses
Zoom, fixed, and specialty lenses compatible with professional projector platforms. We buy individual lenses, lens kits, and large lens inventories. Even if you're not sure of compatibility, send us the part numbers and we'll sort it out.
Rigging & Cases
Road cases, flight cases, stacking frames, rigging hardware, and custom mounts designed for professional projectors. If you're liquidating a projection package, we'll take the full kit — projector, lens, case, and rigging together.
Accessories & Parts
Input cards, signal processors, remote controls, replacement lamps, lamp modules, filters, and other OEM accessories. We actively buy used AV accessories and spare parts — these items carry real value on the secondary market, and we're always looking to add to our inventory. We're happy to include accessories in any buyout or consignment package, or purchase them separately. https://www.stradevents.com/we-buy-projectors(Consider adding: See what AV accessories we buy → as a future link.)
Projector Condition We Accept
We buy used projectors in a range of conditions — from fully working units to as-is equipment. Our in-house technical team at our Milwaukee facility handles testing, cleaning, and board-level repairs, so don't count out projection equipment that's been sitting in storage.
Working Units
Fully operational used projectors in good cosmetic and functional condition. These command the highest offers and move the fastest through our remarketing channels.
Needs Service
Used units with minor issues — lamp warnings, filter alerts, firmware needs, or cosmetic wear. We repair and refurbish in-house and factor service costs into our offer.
As-Is / Unknown
Pre-owned equipment that hasn't been powered on in a while or has known faults. We'll still evaluate it. Many "dead" projectors have recoverable value in parts or can be brought back to life through our refurbishment process.
Two Ways to Sell Your Used Projector
Not sure whether to sell your used projector outright or consign it? Here's how each option works — and you don't have to decide upfront.
Outright Buyout
We make you an offer and pay within 24–48 hours of receiving your used projector. No waiting for a buyer, no ongoing involvement. Fast and simple.
Best for: Quick projector liquidations, clearing storage, large decommission projects where you want cash now for your used equipment.
Consignment
We list, market, and manage the sale of your used equipment on your behalf — through our e-commerce store, our industry network, and several established remarketing channels. You keep more of the sale price in exchange for a longer timeline.
Best for: High-value or specialty projectors where you want to maximize recovery and are comfortable waiting for the right buyer.
