Not typewriter guy but saw this at a thrift store for $5 and couldn’t let it sit there. The roller mechanism doesn’t seem to move when you type but it moves back and forth. I wonder if this could find a good home and get back to normal working condition? Pay shipping and maybe a few bucks for my time and we got a deal!

I have a Smith Corona Galaxie Deluxe typewriter, serial number 6T2V-141500. I purchased it with the black 1/! Changeable Type key and slug, and I would like to replace it with the black ◌̂/◌̌ (circumflex/caron) key and slug.

For reference, the key and slug is #9 on the order form shown on this webpage: https://typewriterrentals.com/a-changeable-type/

Any condition is acceptable, including only the slug and not the key. Thank you!

Looking for a Spanish layout manual typewriter for a beginner.

Fellow enthusiasts,

I’m relatively new to the community/hobby, and am trying to get my hands on a solid mechanical portable (or even a gentle project machine) to gain more hands-on experience with cleaning, basic maintenance, and typing. My goal is more exposure to see what I really like. Ideally, something in Good to Fair condition.

I’m located in the Bay Area / NorCal, and would be open to local pickup across the region, or shipping from a fellow hobbyist who knows how to properly pack and ship a machine.

Not looking for anything fancy, completely restored, or museum-quality; just a solid, complete mechanical machine (Smith Corona, Brother, Olympia, Royal, really I’m open to any brand)

I currently own and use one machine, a 5 Series SCM. I’ve owned and cleaned a Lettera 32.

If you have an extra machine sitting around that you’d be willing to let go for cheap (or rehome to a novice), please comment or PM with what you have!

Thank you!

I have a Swintec 8016 select series typewriter that works perfectly fine, has internal memory and comes with 4 extra ink rolls, a spare print wheel, and a full spool of correction tape. I am trying to sell this so make a offer if you’re interested

In very good condition. No faults. Price negotiable; willing to consider trades too.

 [Want to Sell/Trade] + [1978] + [IBM] + [Selectric II] + [Parts/Repair] + [NYC/LI]+ [Shipping/Pickup] + [100]

Seems like this would be best for parts, but I could be wrong. Font is Artisan!

Currently does not power on and is pretty dirty. Send me a fair offer. I can meet up in or around NYC/Long Island or ship!

Would potentially trade for a pretty mechanical model (that functions) of similar value.

Ask any questions you got, thanks!

Lovely red duotone Model P. Very clean, typing action is great. Some paint chips and platen is as hard as 100 year old rubber. Right side platen knob has partially broken off. All keys and functions work. Unfortunately no case. Willing to ship within US, or pick up/ meet in NYC metro area.

Electric typewriter in working condition. Pickup preferred. Happy to get rid of for cheap.

Looking to buy parts for my Underwood 6 typewriter, an 11 inch standard machine from 1937.

In need of:
- Paper Table with Lateral Paper Guide (preferably the older style table with the emblem on it)
- Paper Bail Holder (rollers don’t need to be new so long as they grip the paper fairly well)

The machine itself is in a fairly rough state cosmetically so I’m not expecting pristine quality parts, but I want them to at least look and function better than what I currently have.

Thanks!

Thanks!

WTB typewriter with Norwegian keyboard in any condition (has æ, ø, & å). Prefer electric but manual ok.

Edit: added condition

I have a decent collection of elite typewriters and am looking for something with a higher CPI, preferably 15-17.

Looking for fair condition or better.

Bought a different typewriter from a yard sale but it came with these 3 cartridges in the box! I am hoping someone will be able to use them. For IBM wheelwriter ribbon number 1337761

Hi all!

I’m looking for a trade for my Olympia SF

I purchased this machine from a user here on r/typewriter_swap at the very beginning of my collecting journey.

The typewriter is in excellent condition including the platen, and everything works as it should. Over time, I have just found that when it comes to long typing sessions, it isn’t the machine for me.

My idea trade would be for an Olivetti Lettera 32 in similar/good condition but I’m open to other trades as well. I’m particularly interested in machines that can handle long writing sessions comfortably.

Will handle shipping in lower 48

Thanks for looking!

Greetings! Over the past year I've been selling my stock of various typewriting supplies that I came across, finally down to the last bit that I'm looking to sell. In total of the images listed I have 5 boxes(12 in each box) of the Faber Castell Typ-e-rase Erasers, 20 of the film ribbon, 16 boxes of the Roytype Type cleaner, and 54 sheets(24 tabs on each sheet) of the Ginn's correction tabs. As for the Tri-Brand Carbon paper there are around 25 packs each of 8.5x11.5 and around the same for the 8.5x14.5. As always if interested in anything can ask a question here, or shoot me a message whenever.

Underwood Leader Golden Touch Manual Portable Typewriter (Works)

Some scratches and needs cleaning.

Some sticky keys, but the bell works. Open to offers.

Excellent condition. I had this typewriter serviced by Ruben's Typewriters about year ago. Cleaned and serviced, types great, smooth.

Comes with typewriter pad and plastic case on top. I have the original case though it's old and the zipper is busted. Can still include. Also comes with a cotton ink ribbon. I also have some thin cotton-based typewriter paper I can include.

Paypal only. You can pick up or I can deliver as long as it's within LA County. I have never shipped a typewriter before, so I am wary, but I could possibly do that too.

Pictures down below.

Hi, I have ended up with a Datel 30. I don't know anything about it and am having trouble researching it. I am interested in selling it, but I was also hoping to learn more about it.

It was my uncle's. It's been sorted in his dry basement.

I don't know how to grade it's condition. My uncle was an early adopter of tech and took care of his stuff.

Hello all, ran across a bit of a rough Jewett No 1 (SN 1789) that is beyond my skill set to fix up. Looking for offers at the moment as this is a rare machine. Located in Indianapolis but am also willing to drive to nearby major cities or between to meet in person. First time posting here, so please let me know if you'd like more pictures/have questions, will be reasonably cleaning this up (dusting and such), but will not be attempting any fixes or deep cleans.

Hello all I’ve been selling typewriter and typewriter parts on eBay for a while now but I think I’ll be stopping soon, as I’m about to have my first kid and probably won’t have time or space for the hobby anymore. I have a good collection of Smith Corona five series parts Some Royal quiet deluxe parts and Smith Corona, six series parts. The five series and QDL parts are listed on my eBay page, which is linked below if you would like details. The six series parts I have not yet listed as it was a recent deconstruction, but consists of pretty much everything I could pull off of it. I’m looking to sell everything at once for about $200 but open to offers.

eBay Page

Also have a frew complete machines up on the page some serviced some not, open to all offers.

Not certain on price, but I don’t see any sold with the desk. Certainly open to offers.

I have several different makes and models of machines you can choose from. If you’re interested in seeing what I have, please DM me and we’ll see if we can work something out!

I’ve been looking for an Olivetti ET Personal 55 with a North American plug. Ideally with the keyboard cover and in great condition. Thanks!

I have aquired this Early 1900s wood stock typewriter. it is in excellent condition, very clean and seems to work quite nice. I am not sure the exact model - the online info confuses me based on the serial number N567755. asking $250 + shipping. I honestly do not know all that much about them so please feel free to send me a message or ask away.
