Used & new Miscellaneous & Other Items for sale in Islamabad & Rawalpindi
Where can I buy used miscellaneous & other items in Islamabad?
One-off items are the hardest things to buy privately, because there is no price to look up and no second unit to compare against. A condition grade and a model number take the place of that comparison: New, Like New, Good Used and For Parts / Repair mean the same thing on a safe or a telescope as they do on a fridge. What is missing from the box matters more than its scuffs.

What to check before buying a used miscellaneous & other items
These are the checks that set the condition grade on anything we list — and the ones worth running yourself wherever you buy.
Find the item's own adapter
Adapters, remotes, lids, feet, brackets and lens caps belong with the item rather than in the seller's drawer, and a proprietary power supply is the usual gap. Read the voltage, current and polarity printed on the brick against the label on the item, since a generic adapter of the wrong polarity may already have done its damage.
Open the battery compartment
Anything stored for years with cells left inside should be opened before it is judged on anything else. Leaked alkaline crust creeps from the springs along the wires to the board, and once it has reached the board the item is usually finished however new the outside looks.
Lock it with the door open
On a safe, cash box, trunk or filing cabinet, throw the bolts several times with the door standing open, using the key and the code both, and check that a second key exists. One key and no combination, or a code nobody remembers, means the only way in is a drill, and a drilled safe is just a box.
Roll the case over a kerb
Wheel a suitcase across a tiled joint and a doorway kerb, listening for the rumble of a flat-spotted or seized wheel, then run the telescopic handle out to full extension and lean on it. A handle that will not lock at each stop, and zip tape that has split away from its teeth, are the two faults with no spares behind them on most cases.
Feel the tank's silicone seams
On an aquarium or terrarium, run a fingernail down the inside silicone bead in each corner: an edge you can catch, or black spotting under the bead, means it needs resealing before it will hold water again. Chips in the rim of a glass panel and crazing in acrylic spread once the tank is filled and cannot be repaired.
Look through the optics
With the caps off, hold a telescope, binocular, microscope or camera lens up to a bright patch of sky, never the sun, and look through the front element at an angle. Fine white webbing across the glass is fungus, which etches the coating and stays after cleaning, and a coloured ring at the edge of a cemented lens is the glue separating; then rack the focuser both ways feeling for slack.
