Hello all,

I have an extra set of hearing aids that I no longer need anymore. These were going to be my back up pair, but they don't really fit my hearing range anymore. Therefore, first of all, does anyone know what he or she can do with used aids? How much do you think you could sell them for? Have any of you ever had experience with water proof hearing aids? I was reading about them and saw a model that could withstand 3 feet of water for 30 minutes. Just wondering.

I have always wanted hearing aids that were water proof.

I haven't used water proof hearing aids in a long long time, but when i did when I was a kid, it didn't like to work well. Bassed on what I've found, if you got a little water on them it worked okay, but go swimming and duck your head under? forget about it.
I have no idea about selling used aids. I know the satoma club is a club for hearing impaired andif i remember right they'll take used ones a as donations.
