WE BUY VINTAGE analog photo booths
Analog, dip and dunk, vintage, chemical black and white photobooth … we are passionate about preserving this part of Americana for future generations to enjoy. Have a photobooth that you’re tired of storing? We’re offering the fairest prices around.
Selling a vintage photobooth?
We pay top dollar. Sell your photobooth to us. We’ll place it where the public can use it again. We do not “flip” photobooths, get them for parts or convert them to digital. If this is important to you, you’ve found one of the ONLY shops committed to this.
We love these machines, but not enough to cheat anyone. Our vending photobooths fund our passion for buying and restoring antique and vintage machines. If you find a better offer for a photobooth that we want, we’ll beat it.
We’ve purchased photobooths from San Francisco to New York, and Los Angeles to Quebec. Mint condition to near-destroyed and in pieces. We’ll buy one or an entire warehouse. Contact us for an efficient, fair transaction.
LOOKING TO BUY an analog photobooth?
We no longer offer analog photobooths for sale. We have a backlog of analog work and we’re keeping our promises to clients waiting on booths. We’ll re-evaluate whether to sell booths again in the future.
FILM PRODUCTION SEEKING HERO PROP?
We work with large and small productions. Mega corporations and shoestring budget productions. We understand the financial side and set buyer’s mission to deliver the perfect scene. We have a small collection of photobooths that can be deployed given a realistic timeline (including time in transit). We also value privacy.
How we buy them
We’ve driven or flown to our sellers to load a truck or two, helped them dig out from basements and barns and can send freight companies to pickup. We cater to each seller’s situation. At the end of the day these are 850lb+ objects and we have the experience to make not only selling them but moving them easy on you.
