Can
you help me price my equipment so that it will move quickly? |
|
Yes. We will be glad to assist you in establishing a fair market asking price
for your machine. Selling a machine is similar to selling other items such as
cars, boats, houses, etc. There is always a buyer depending upon the price. Our
goal is to work with you to meet your need and net for you the best amount we
can for the machine. Depending on your specific needs, we have (3) basic
methods for selling equipment:
-
Time is not an issue. Basic machinery marketing. If you can keep the
equipment at your facility with no time limitation, we suggest placing the
equipment on our main website (www.exfactory.com) under the appropriate machine
category. Our website averages about (3,300) different visitors each day. This
method can bring you the highest dollar amount for your equipment.
-
Liquidation. If you need to dispose of the equipment within the next (2 -
4) months, we suggest featuring them in our "Liquidation" area. If you
have several machines, we will gladly include them in a special, dedicated
liquidation section on www.exfactory.com and send targeted email
broadcasts to speed up the process! - You should know that in a liquidation,
the net amount you'll have after the sale is generally lower
because of the time restriction.
-
Auction . If you have to dispose of the equipment NOW, our
auction site is the best way. We'll need to establish a reserve price for each
machine prior to the auction. Typically we can move the majority of your
equipment in (30 - 45) days.

What
can I do to get the best price for the machine that I’m selling? |
|
Good photographs of the equipment will increase the value of the equipment more
than anything else. Be sure to thoroughly clean the machine, as well as the
surrounding areas when taking photos. You should supply at least (4 to 5)
photos of the machine: A good general overview of the complete machine and
additional close-up photos of the critical areas with doors and sound
enclosures open. |
|
|
|
Do
you provide some kind of warranty on used equipment? |
|
Warranties are available on used equipment. Most equipment sold through
EX-FACTORY INC carries a basic functional warranty, to ensure the equipment
arrives in the manner described. Reconditioned equipment is offered with a
warranty supplied by the technician who does the work. These types of
warranties vary greatly so be sure to inquire as to the specifics of any
warranty offered.
|
|
|
|
Can
I inspect the machine under power? |
|
The majority of equipment can be inspected under power. In some cases a
unit may be in storage where power is unavailable. If necessary the Seller can
typically run power to a machine if a deposit is offered prior to
purchase. |
|
|
|
What
is the actual location of the machine? |
|
Our equipment is located throughout the Unites States, Canada, Mexico and the
rest of the world. We provide regions or groups of states to allow you to hunt
for equipment closer to you. A salesman will be glad to give you the actual
location of the machine as part of the sales process.
|
|
|
|
Are prices on used equipment
firm or negotiable?
|
|
In life everything is negotiable. The pricing and sale of equipments are
no different than cars or houses. We are motivated to sell equipment and will
always work with a buyer to establish the best price for equipment.
|
|
|
|
Where can I get service/parts
and support for one of these (used) machines?
|
|
Parts and service are typically provided by the OEM or Original Equipment
Manufacturer. We will be glad to provide you with the contact information for
the OEM on any equipment purchased through us. Occasionally OEM’s do go out of
business and we can usually locate a comparable part or source for parts on
equipment. Most people find that seeking a local source for routine parts or a
machine shop for castings is more cost effective and simple than going through
an OEM.
|
|
|
|
The machine listing doesn’t
say why the machine is being sold. Can you find out for me?
|
|
We can certainly find out the specific reason a machine is being sold. Even as
the majority of equipment on the market is available due
to upgrading existing equipment. This leaves the old
equipment as surplus or taken in on trade through another dealer. The
other major source of equipment is through lending institutions who contract
with us to market and re-sell equipment they need to mitigate their losses.
