AI Thread Summary
Selling an older 3D printer from a defunct company can be challenging due to the lack of customer support. Utilizing platforms like eBay is recommended for a broader audience and better chances of finding a buyer. Craigslist is an option, but it poses risks with in-person transactions. Pricing the printer competitively is crucial to attract potential buyers. Overall, eBay is suggested as the most effective platform for selling the printer.

How to sell.
I have an older 3D printer. The company that made it has since gone under. I'd like to sell it, but not sure how many takers there could be without customer support available. Any suggestions? Currently doing FB marketplace with minimal success.

Craigslist can become somewhat shady with parking lot transactions as you don't want the buyer to know where you live.
