Used photo copiers?

I know a guy who has a company set up to do short term copier rentals. Depending on who calls, the rate is either sky high or very, very cheap but all depends on the customer. If their business isn't wanted, a BOFH like excuse is given to imply if things were just a bit different the rates would be outstanding to keep the reputation at the right level.

Some lucky customers get a newly serviced machine swapped in every month for nearly nothing. Those customers tend to be the offices of his political opponents. None has ever asked to have the hard disk swapped.
