Heavy Equipment Going for Scrap - Missed Opportunity for More Profit

biggest problem i have is finding someone with the money. and too many low ball offers. some of the folks i deal with seem to think the ad said i was paying them to take it off my hands.



i just the love the ones that want the fastest quad core money can buy with a lifetime replacement warranty all for $20.

and then ask if i can finance it for em.

You're right it's hard. After 3 months I just sold a giant logging winch from turn of century for $350. I had it advertised on CL for 4 months. Bought if off a truck on the way to scrap yard for $50. I just knew a 150 year old piece of logging history like that was worth saving. I've got a lot of stuff on CL now and every week or so something sells. just takes a long time but now CL makes it easy to renew so not too tough. My problem here is that my town is 400 people. whole county is 20,000 so most buyers are out of area - so there's a drive problem. I sell lower than someone in urban areas for sure.
