I received super excellent service on my vintage Royal Quiet De Luxe. Rick really knows what he’s doing and he’s one of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet. Prices very reasonable too. I highly recommend.

Rick is the man you want to go to when you are looking for authentic, workable typewriters! He’s very knowledgeable and does a great job refurbishing older ones you have laying around the house. It’s also very interesting to be able to speak to him about his machines that are used by celebrities and also as props on movie/TV sets. He is a fair guy with fair pricing. Highly recommended, especially to those that do or want to write, a typewriter is the way to go! Plus his security guy, Buddy, is adorable! The fact that he’s an adoring dog dad to Buddy & Vanilla makes him tops!

My dearly loved IBM Wheelwriter stopped working. My husband found Karl's Business Machines on the internet and took the typewriter there to be repaired. Not only did the typewriter not work, it was absolutely filthy inside. When it came back it was working and Rick (the owner) had cleaned every part! It looked like brand new! A real pleasure doing business with them. Rick is tops for customer satisfaction. I highly recommend!

Very easy to work with and gave me a great rate for a heavily damaged Hermes 3000. Will never go anywhere else!

Another flash back in time when you could get great service at a fair price, which is always refreshing. My wife spotted a vintage typewriter on a recent trip and made a comment on how much she liked it, thanks to Rick, one exactly like it arrived today just a couple of days after I reached out...just in time for Valentine's Day.

This place is AMAZING!!! I took my type writer here to see if it could get fixed up for Valentine’s Day so I could write a letter for my gf, however the owner was nice enough to write letter on my behalf in time!The shop itself is a great emporium of typewriters and retro gear, really a must visit if you’re in the Trenton area or in need of Type Writer repair services !

I brought a 1930s Hermes Baby in to Rick at Karl Business Machines because it was having carriage issues. Even though it’s a pretty rare typewriter these days, Rick was able to get it typing like new again. It’s hard enough to find repair services for typewriters outside of larger cities, but even harder to find someone who can do real quality work like this.

I have called Karl on occasions to help me with my flintstones type-writter and he always helps me. He is very good at what he does that's for sure! Thank You Karl!

Rick repaired my 1920's era Royal typewriter. The typewriter came out better than I ever could have anticipated. Rick was very friendly and communicated with me throughout the entire process. I would definitely recommend Karl Business Machines for any repairs of vintage office equipment.

I had the pleasure of purchasing a large antique business machine from Karl's Business Machines. The proprietor is gregarious and helpful; he went above-and-beyond in helping get the item crated and shipped across country, and it came safe & sound. Would absolutely work with Karl BM again!

I have had an IBM Selectric typewriter for 39 years. It finally quite on me and I was in need of another electric typewriter. Typewriters are the best for envelopes and mailing documents. I found Karl Business Machines in Trenton. Within a week, Rick the owner found me a Brother electric typewriter. Rich reconditioned the unit an it works and looks like it is brand new! Rick gives excellent service and I would highly recommend Karl Business Machines!
