new opener or replace remotes?
 

I have an old Craftsman 1/2 hp garage door opener.

The model is 139.53615SR, mfg 11/91

the remotes are worn out

Is there a place to get a cheap remote - need 2?

or time to buy a new unit?

I put the model # in an Ebay search, and also searched Amazon.
There are a bunch of replacement remotes on Ebay, a couple on Amazon.
Most are under $20.

I second this recommendation. I've got a twenty-some year old opener
from a company that's no longer in business. When the remotes wore out
these folks helped me identify which model I had and supplied
replacements, guaranteeing a return if they didn't work. They worked
just fine.

I'll 3rd that. Ebay and Google are really your friends. Yesterday
I decided to buy the dresser that goes with the bed I purchased last
year. Well, you guessed it, it is no longer made. So, I Googled
the manufacturer's name and number on the bed, and I got a whole
bunch of useful hits. I purchased the dresser from a place in Utah
but had it warehoused in Florida ... I live in NC. They said free
shipping, but only gave me a price after doing some calculating.
But it was a good price and should arrive later this week or early
next week. "This Internet stuff will never catch on!"
