Hacker Instruments is still the "go-to" company for new or used RCM  and 
HCM style coverslippers.

I purchased a used  Hacker RCM-3660 glass coverslipper several years ago.  
It was missing  some parts and the nice people from Hacker supplied me with 
the needed  parts.  This work horse has been running 7 days a week for the 
past  several years and has never given us any problems.  Great machine and  
great people.

We use the Leica  CV5030 the advantage of it is that it can be attached to 
their Auto stainer  providing continuous workflow as rack and coverslip 30 
slides per run, without  the need to physically transfer slides rack between 
the autostainer and  coverslipper or used as a stand alone coverslipper if 
needed, though at time  it can be problematic.

For a start glass cover slip must be kept at 37  oC prior use otherwise 
they tend to stick to each others.
Also does not  recognised all the slides type unless they are Leica one, or 
the coverlslipper  as been calibrated to use a specific slides type.

In the past I used  the Sakura Acetate film coverslipper, and their were no 
major problem with it  though remounting section was a very tedious  
process.
