SELLING TIPS:
We recommend when selling machines remember in order to maximise the price obtained you follow simple rules:
1) Clean the machine as much as possible so it presents well at first glance. Think of your reaction when you go to buy a machine. Would you consider a machine that is dirty or damaged? So be open about the machines condition. Nothing stays hidden for long.
2)Remove all rags, bottles and excess items from around the machine before taking photos.The quality of photos are generally a reflection of the way the machine has been maintained.
3)Take a video of the machine is operation and photos of the machine connected before dismantling. This is essential even if you to move the machine in a hurry. Dismantled machines are hard to sell at the best of times but are even harder if there are no good quality photos and video of machine in operation.
4)Ensure the price you set is realistic. The market has changed alot with the prices obtained for used machines dropping dramatically. It is our experience that finance is generally hard to get and the global prices are depressed. Always consider the opportunity cost of the money tied up in your machines. An offer that is not too far from the market price should be accepted, as the next offer you get will generally be lower.
