It can be difficult to find the exact earthmoving equipment you need Consider the age of the earthmoving equipment you’re interested in bidding on. When you are looking at the age of the equipment, you must also factor in how many hours it has been used. The older a piece of earthmoving equipment is and the more it has been used, the more likely it could need replacement parts and repairs in the near future. Keep in mind also when looking with age of the equipment is the length of the original factory warranty.

Sometimes, a company's reputation can reflect the earthmoving equipment they sell. This can be either good or bad. If the equipment has come from a reputable organization that's known for buying good-quality machinery and taking good care of it, buyers will often be willing to pay more for it. If it's equipment that's been owned by a company with a reputation for cutting corners, or it comes from a relatively unknown company, people can perceive it as a risk buy and will offer a lower price. As much as possible, look for information on the seller so that you have information and history of how they used the earthmoving equipment. This could provide additional insight beyond what you find in an inspection and in the earthmoving auction’s report on the machine. If a piece of equipment was used frequently but very lightly, that counts for a lot in value.  Equipment that has been used a lot in extreme conditions and with rough handling, this should be more carefully inspected as it is a greater risk for a lemon. If there is no information in regards to the usage and history of a piece of equipment, you will of course be bidding at your own risk. It’s always best to bid on earthmoving equipment for which you know the history and usage.
