Equippo, an online market place for used heavy equipment, says it has introduced a full money-back guarantee with free worldwide return shipping.
The company, which offers equipment from the US and Europe selling for as high as US$500,000, says the new guarantee applies to all orders placed on the platform, and it gives customers the opportunity to test machines extensively for five days on their jobsite, anywhere in the world.
If they are not satisfied, customers have the ability to return them for a full refund.
According to the RBA Investor Report September 2016, the global market for used heavy equipment was estimated to be over US300 billion.
But despite the financial incentives of buying used machines, many potential purchasers fear hidden damages or dishonest sellers, claims Equippo.
Michael Rohmeder, Equippo’s founder, says: “We are making online trade with used construction equipment transparent, simple and safe. All machines undergo strict technical inspections. Our money-back guarantee is reducing the buyer's risks immensely.”
