Sell Allen-Bradley parts — extra PLC modules, drives, HMIs, safety relays, or enclosures — that are just gathering dust? Don’t let them sit idly when they can be converted into cash. At VB Industrial Supply, we specialize in buying genuine Allen-Bradley components and excess inventory, offering fair pricing and helping you clear space, reduce carrying costs, and benefit from unused stock.
Why Allen-Bradley?
Allen-Bradley, a brand of Rockwell Automation, is globally respected for its rugged industrial automation and control products—including PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers), HMIs, VFDs (Variable Frequency Drives), contactors, safety components, and motion control systems.
These parts maintain long service lives, high demand, and solid resale value—especially when genuine, in good condition, or properly refurbished. This makes Allen-Bradley stock especially attractive for buyers and distributors in automation, manufacturing, energy, and maintenance sectors.
What VB Industrial Supply Buys
We are interested in a broad range of Allen-Bradley inventory, whether new, surplus, unused, NOS (New-Old-Stock), or lightly used (depending on condition). Items we typically purchase include:
-
PLC modules and racks (CompactLogix, ControlLogix, MicroLogix, and legacy series)
-
HMIs / Display panels
-
Drives / VFDs (PowerFlex, Kinetix, etc.)
-
Safety components (safety relays, safety controllers)
-
Power supplies, contactors, I/O modules, sensors
-
OEM parts, enclosures, spare parts
Even obsolete or discontinued Allen-Bradley parts have value if they are genuine and in reasonable condition.
How to Sell to VB Industrial Supply
Selling parts to us is straightforward:
-
Prepare Your Inventory List
List each item with as much detail as possible: model / part number, condition (new, used, NOS), quantity, photos if possible. The more specific (serial numbers, specs, compatibility), the better. -
Send Us the List
Submit your inventory via our “Sell Us” page on VB Industrial Supply. You can attach files or tables for large lots. -
Get a Quote
Once we review your list, we'll provide you with a competitive offer. We evaluate based on condition, model demand, and current market prices. -
Ship / Drop-Off
If you accept our offer, you ship the items to our warehouse or arrange drop-off (if feasible). We inspect and verify condition. After verification, we issue payment. -
Payment
We offer transparent payment options—wire transfer, check, or other agreed methods—once items are confirmed.
Key Factors That Affect Value
Several factors influence the offer you’ll receive for Allen-Bradley parts:
-
Authenticity & genuine parts: Items must be original factory parts. Counterfeit or modified parts severely reduce value and demand.
-
Condition: New, sealed, NOS condition gets the highest price. Used parts should be clean, fully functional, without damage.
-
Model and demand: Some Allen-Bradley models (recent ones, commonly used in modern automation systems) tend to sell faster and higher than rare legacy models.
-
Documentation / datasheets: Having manuals, datasheets, and clear labeling helps.
-
Quantity & lot size: Bulk lots may yield better per-unit pricing due to reduced handling overhead.

Beware of Common Pitfalls
Before selling, be aware of risks and ensure you are not exposed:
-
Warranty and Warranty Validity: Often, manufacturer warranties do not transfer when parts are sold second-hand, especially through non-authorized channels.
- Counterfeit Parts: There is a risk of receiving or unintentionally selling counterfeit Allen-Bradley components, especially in surplus markets. Always insist on original labeling, serials, and factory packaging.
- Legal / Distributor Agreements: Ensure that selling on is permitted under any agreements. Some OEM partner or distributor agreements have restrictions.
