Just curious what every one thinks of Iron planet. In the market to add some equipment and not finding much locally of enterest. Thompson Cat seems about 25% higher or more than Stowers or Yancey from a few hours away. :beatsme
I like that they have someone inspect the equipment, but are the inspections acurate enough to justify forking out the funds for something you haven't seen yourself? Are the oil samples reports fairly acurate? Also is it a biding war the last few minutes or so?
Been looking on machinerytrader as well, but plumb full of brokers trying to sell the same thing, and pics of equipment taken on 07, 08, early 09 for sale now. Personally I'd like to see pics within a week or two of the item being posted not how it looked when they bought it a few years ago ( and that's just the ones with date stamps on the pics ).
