About Lea Malagon

I broker copiers and printers for New Jersey businesses. One person, no quota, no showroom — which is the point.

Before you call a stranger about your copier, check that I’m a real person: Lea Malagon on LinkedIn.

What I am

An independent broker. When you buy through me, the equipment is sourced through a dealer who holds the manufacturer authorisation, and they handle delivery, install and ongoing service. What you get from me is the part that happens before all of that: working out what you actually need, negotiating the term and the per-page rate, and reading the agreement on your side of the table.

What I am not

Not an authorised dealer for any manufacturer.
Not a marketplace. I have a specific line card, and it’s published below.
Not free of interest. A dealer pays me when an order completes.
Not a company. There is no team. If you call, you get me.

Market access: I currently source through a single dealer partner.

What “independent” means here

I work for the company buying the copier.

I don’t work for a manufacturer and I don’t work for a dealer. I size the machine to your real volume, negotiate the term and the cost per page, and tell you when the deal in front of you is a bad one — including when the right answer is to keep what you have.

What it doesn’t mean: I’m not a marketplace that quotes every brand on the market. Here is exactly what I can and can’t get you today, through my dealer partner.

Can source today

Brother
Canon
KIP
Kyocera

Can’t source today

Konica Minolta
Lexmark
Ricoh
Sharp
Toshiba
Xerox

If your requirement points to a line I can’t source, I’ll say so on the first call and point you somewhere useful.

Where I work

New Jersey is the home market: Bergen County, Burlington County, Camden County, Essex County, Gloucester County, Hudson County, Mercer County, Middlesex County, Monmouth County, Morris County, Passaic County, Somerset County and Union County — the towns and corridors I cover. My partner also covers New York City and Philadelphia, so if your offices straddle the river I can keep them on one agreement. If you’re outside that, ask anyway; I’ll still read your agreement and tell you what you’re paying per page.

Why there are no numbers on this site

No rates, no “save up to 40%”, no testimonials. Equipment pricing swings enormously by volume, term and configuration, and a range wide enough to be honest is too wide to be useful. When I can substantiate a number, it will appear here with the evidence attached.

Have me look at it

Three ways, cheapest first. All of them end with you knowing your real cost per page.

Call or text me with the invoice in front of you.It is a short call, not a pitch.
Or just send the invoice. That alone gets you your true cost per page and whether the allowance is sized right.
Send the lease schedule too and I’ll also find your notice deadline and read the terms. The schedule is only needed for the deadline.

What happens next: I read it and email you back a written summary within one business day. If I need anything else I’ll ask by email. No phone call unless you ask for one.

Or write to lmalagon@gmail.com — some work machines block the button above.

If the answer is that your current deal is fine, I’ll tell you that. I’d rather be the person who told you the truth when there was nothing in it for me.

How I get paid: the dealer pays me a commission on completed orders. You don’t pay me a fee. Ask me at any point what I make on your deal and I’ll tell you.
