Update: both enlargers are gone, the box of accessories + the lens from the enlargers are still available

Thanks Conrad. So I am wondering if I will be easier to find people who would want some of the parts/accessories rather than the enlargers themselves. Do you see any of those that might be more valuable? I saw similar development tanks being sold on eBay but I suspect that those might be odd one-offs rather than a trend.

Hi Everyone, As I mentioned in my 1st post I occasionally come across discarded photo equipment.Would like to learn more about it and in the process find people who might be interested in any of it. Would like to earn a few bucks in the process if possible, but just keeping stuff away from the landfill and giving it a second life makes me happy too. So... The other day I picked up two photo enlargers and a box of accessories. I am trying to learn more about all these pieces. In particular, which of the accessories go with which enlarger and what are the "orphaned" ones used for. 1. BESELER 23C Series II Universal Colorhead Darkroom Enlarger 2. Vivitar Enlarger E32 Both appear to be functional, or at least, don't have any obvious signs of damage. Photos are posted here. Can post more photos if needed. Also, I will try answering any questions to the best of my ability. Thank you!

Noted thank you!

Good Day Everyone, Greeting from Maryland, where it's finally Spring! I am an amateur "digital point-and-shoot" kind of guy. Still prefer my Canon SX50HS over smartphones, for its 50X optical zoom! I have to admit, I used to be more active when my boys were young. Now they are taller than me and so I have to pick a different subject for my photos. :-) My reason for joining this forum is a bit different, though. From time to time I come across old photo equipment that people simply throw away. I pick it up. I guess you can call it dumpster diving... Most of the time I have a very vague idea of what it is I am grabbing, I just love to save stuff from landfill and try giving it second life. Which means learning about my finds and also finding people who could put this equipment to good use. Can I use this forum to do both? Thank you!
