In locating and identifying assets for its customer base, SRK Solutions does not always have the benefit of time to plan the acquisition of new equipment that meets the timeline of its clientele. When this happens, “I ask my customers to buy directly from GoIndustry DoveBid.

Purchasing the assets has been a good experience and because my purchase cost was about 15-20% less than what it would have cost me before I tried this marketplace. As a result, SRK Solutions managed to sell these machines at a lower price than market rate. It is likely to become more frequent because GoIndustry DoveBid is also intuitive and “user-friendly” to focus on my goal of buying low for increased profit.

With GoIndustry DoveBid, we find second-hand equipment that meets our specifications from around the world. We have a dedicated project manager with experience in auctions to support us through the entire buying process.Any concerns that bidding would be stressful quickly went away.

After purchasing, GoIndustry DoveBid helps us to coordinate the escrow, shipping and third parties. For example, we recently bought equipment from Nicaragua and Colombia - not your average purchase destinations - and we would never have done this without GoIndustry DoveBid.

We’ve already purchased over 200 pieces of equipment on GoIndustry DoveBid. We save between 50% and 75% compared with the cost of new equipment. We reduced our average sourcing time from 8 months to less than 3 months and win more sales as a result. In addition, buying second-hand also helps to reduce our environmental impact.

Through our partnership with GoIndustry DoveBid, we have greatly reduced the amount of time spent on commercial work - from price negotiations, contract checking and signing, invoicing to pickup and delivery of equipment. GoIndustry DoveBid communicated with the seller and took on the work that I would have had to do. In doing so, we have been able to lower our manpower costs to purchase new equipment by as much as 60%, while still obtaining the high-quality machinery we need.

The sellers in GoIndustry DoveBid auctions are all world-famous Top 500 companies in the industry, helping us feel assured that the source of the equipment is very reliable. In the future, we will continue to support GoIndustry DoveBid and participate more in online auctions.

The equipment is diverse, and GoIndustry DoveBid is a one-stop shop to meet our demands. Usually it’s only about 15%-30% of what it would have cost to acquire this equipment brand new.
