Looking to buy a typewriter, not an electric one. The old fashioned kind. Give me the deets!

Try Weschler's auction house in DC on E street, across from the FBI building. They get different stuff every week so keep checking. (yeah sorry it technically isn't in NOVA.)

You might try a pawn shop. Also, there are lots on Ebay. You might find one locally that you could pick up rather than paying for shipping.

Here, just go to ebay and set preferences to sellers 25 miles within your local zip code.


A top rated seller called Mclean Surplus sells all sorts of old equipment.
