Okay, I've got a Perkins Brailler, manual not electric, that's probably a good 20 years old. The place we used to send it to for repairs isn't doing it amymore. I all ready know about the Ackly Appliance Braillerman repair place. Does anyone know anywhere else that does brailler rerepair?
Also does anyone know of anywhere that might sell used braillers?
Thanks:

Chastity, I forget what part of the country you are in, but this might be an option for you. I just found out this company moved, which is a disappointment, as my brailler needs to be fixed, and I was ready to hand deliver it to them, as they weren't far from me. Anyway, The Selective Doctor does good work. I'll paste the link to their contact info page.

Excellent! Thanks for that since there aren't that many places anymore that repair these. I know the Perkins itself used to, but not much anymore.
