Question

IronPlanet


I hope this topic hasn't already been discussed, I searched the threads and didn't see anything.

Anyway, has anyone bought equipment off IronPlanet and if so, were you satisfied with the whole process? Any complaints or regrets? What advise would you give a perspective user of the site? I've seen a couple of interesting pieces of equipment on there and the inspection reports seem thorough, but I'm the type that likes to "kick the tires and light the fires" and see for myself how good a deal it is .

Just seein' what general direction the wind blows in regards to this.

Thanks!!

We have a friend that is a dealer and is on there all the time. Not sure if he acutually bought anything from it though. He said that in the inspection reports, if something is missed, Iron Planet is responsible. Thing is, you have to notice the mistake before it is moved from the site.
