Junk dealers were merchants who bought and sold used pieces of technology and equipment. Anakin Skywalker was once a slave owned by Watto, a Toydarian junk dealer from Tatooine. The Crolute Unkar Plutt was a junk dealer who operated in Niima Outpost on the planet Jakku. Due to his monopoly on the market, he had earned the title of junk boss.
