Can you sell a used AED defibrillator on eBay?
These are Class III devices, the FDA's highest-risk class, and are treated as prescription-only.
eBay doesn't allow any medical device that requires a prescription. Whether a particular AED defibrillator does depends on how its maker registered it with the FDA, and that is printed on the device: look for "Rx only" or "Caution: Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician" on the label.
