Who is your "reliable" used avionics source?

[birdofjoy]

Hey folks, I need to buy a few things for a panel remodel that don't need to be brand new, so what is your trusted source of used avionics? I know of skymanavionics.com from my mechanic, who knows and works with them for a few years now, but they don't have what I'm looking for at this moment, so I'm exploring other options. I know there's eBay but I don't trust it that much either. I'm looking for an FMS/GPS but I'm intentionally not saying what I need to avoid all the spammers - which I'm sure I'll still get them anyways.

Back in my whack-a-mole days when I was trying to keep the old panel working before I threw in the towel and upgraded, I bought several pieces of avionics on eBay with no problems. I just tend to buy from dealers rather than individuals. Many offer a warranty.

I ordered a couple radios from https://www.bennettavionics.com/ and had a great experience. They were well packed and received ahead of schedule.

I have an Aspen 1000 Pro (not MAX) that came out of my panel.  With synthetic vision and AoA unlocks.

I have bought used stuff thru Skyman Avionics on E-bay with really good results.

That would be the Grim Reaper @Alan Fox

I’ve personally witnessed him cutting up Mooneys so we know the avionics are real.

I’ve bought avionics from @Alan Fox. Great shape for a fair price.

I have a work associate that also does avionics. If you are interested, send me a pm of what you’re looking for and I’ll forward it to him. He’s on Beechtalk as well.
