Where could i purchase an electric chair from?

[Sarkoz]

Preferably one that has a lot of history and has been used in executions if possible.

[Traci66]

One in good working order?

[MarkRae]

Have you tried Amazon...?

[lardhelmet]

Have you tried ebay or freecycle?

[wolf63]

Ebay

[Traci66]

eBay might be a better place Mark.

[Sarkoz]

No none of those places sell them, what do they do with them once they stop using them or when the prison closes down, sell them or destroy them?

There must be quite a few floating around spare in US prisons since they went over to lethal injections. You could try writing to the Warden of Sing Sing.

[Sarkoz]

Just in case you're wondering i need it before Halloween and will be preforming a televised seance/magic trick and so need one that been used in electrocutions so that we can "Contact the dead"

Mike11111, what kind of prices are they talking?

[cazzz1975]

my advice would be to make a mock up of an electric chair, I cant see them being readily available to buy due to safety reasons

[mike11111]

I don't know what prices they are asking but you'll probably get a shock when you find out.

[maggiebee]

That's shocking!

still in use in four US states. However, you may prefer to buy locally and support British industry

Cazzz1975 it has to be real and i would just be happy with the chair and starps devoid of any electric workins so see no reason why it would be refused.
chi-chi66 what has been tried? Do you even know what my seance/magic trick consists of as only me and my partner know so am wondering how a random stranger on the other side of the internet would know.
Thanks motley, i'm sure that would've been a right laugh but it still doesn't help me.
Yes thank you jno, as said before i'm intending to do a public televised public seance/magic trick and not kill anyone as the chair will not be plugged into anything or have any other sources of power except the power of the other side hopefully

if the act involves summoning up the spirits of executed criminals, you might need to be prepared for a few accusations of bad taste, much as if you were using a gallows. Capital punishment is still a hot topic and not everyone is going to like seeing it turned into entertainment.

Everyone on a forum i use understand the basic jist of what we're going to attempt and succeed in and tbh people are falling over themselves to be involved and in the audience and we understand the full implications of our actions but thanks for the warning.

We bought one for my mother..............unfortunately all it did was tip forwards so she could stand up.
