Wheelchair Arm

I recently had to purchase a wheelchair when i broke my hip, femur, and arm. It is a one arm drive wheelchair that can be controlled by the user using only one arm. The kit to make a regular wheelchair do this is $850. The wheelchair itself was $800.
I dont want to make a huge profit or rip anybody off or anything, but it was really difficult for me to purchase this specialty item because i was out of work for 4 months.
I know i can try craigslist, and ebay, but was wondering if there were any other medical type sites where i could list the item and see if it sells.
Any ideas?

Electric wheelchair are usually made to measure, so it will depend on if you find a person who is the same height, weight and build, let alone if they have only one arm operable. Best of Luck

If a person is an arm amputee, and injures (or loses) a leg to where they cannot walk unassisted, how do they use crutches or a wheelchair?

Gets the type of crutch that has the arm brace on it or use a motorized wheelchair with controls on side where arm was.

Any decent wheelchair dealer/service centre should be able to position the controller anywhere you want it.

Ok. On Family Guy, there's this guy in a wheelchair who has a thing on the arm of the wheelchair where he can type things and it is spoken by a robotic voice. I want to know if there is a website where I could do this - type things and hear it spoken by the computer just like the guy's wheelchair on family guy. Thanks!
