How to buy

At 10K Used Gear, we try to make buying second hand gear simple, transparent, and reliable whether you work in lighting, staging, AV, or specialist production industry. The equipment you buy will be fully tested, of quality and fairly priced. So … how do you buy from us?

How to buy from 10K Used Gear

You can browse our full stock online under our products section. To make finding the right gear even easier, our website allows you to filter products by segment and brand. Simply select your preferred options to view everything we have available, including both 10K Used Gear’s in-house stock and items from our trusted vendor partners.

Or alternatively you can contact our team and we can give you the opportunity to offices to see the gear in person. Each listing includes detailed specifications, high-quality images, and condition reports, giving you a clear picture of exactly what you’re buying.

If you can’t find what you’re looking for, our team can source it for you through our trusted industry network. Once you’ve found your gear, you can buy directly online through our secure checkout, request an invoice by email or from your local representative, or let us handle the sourcing and logistics for you.

Payment Options

We offer several straightforward ways to pay for your used professional equipment. You can buy outright or trade in your existing kit to offset the cost of your new purchase. If you’d like to proceed, please note that terms and conditions apply, and a member of our team will contact you to confirm your eligibility for this offer.

VAT Info:

If you’re ordering from the UK or Europe, we’ve got both sides covered. 10K holds UK and Irish (EU) VAT registrations, allowing us to process orders smoothly across both regions. Depending on where your order is shipped — and whether you have a valid VAT number — this can help reduce or even remove the VAT charged on your purchase. Our dual setup ensures fair, compliant, and efficient billing, no matter where in Europe your gear is headed.

Collection and Delivery

After your purchase is confirmed, we’ll arrange collection or delivery at a time that suits you. Our team works to make the process efficient and reliable, no matter where you’re based.
