Used Machinery Experts Grab Global Market
Online auction portal www.mrmachinery.com continued to branch into exciting new international markets at its latest used plant and equipment auction.
Amongst the items sold was a 1995 Hutte Drill Rig, which was bought by a bidder from Hong Kong for a price of approximately €26,000 plus shipping.
As well as sourcing a wide range of used plant, machinery, and vehicles from countries including the UK, Ireland, Greece, Finland and Portugal, Mr Machinery's recent auctions have seen online bidders from as far afield as the United States, Japan, Australia and Africa, as the demand for high-quality used equipment continues to increase.
"The drill rig proved to be a very popular item with buyers at our last auction, going for a final bid well above its reserved price," Mark Bacon, Managing Director for Mr Machinery revealed. "Our next event, running from 24-26 May, is already promising to be similarly competitive, with a wide range of high-quality used dump trucks, excavators, trucks and trailers up for sale. I'd urge anyone interested in taking part to register for free at www.mrmachinery.com, where they can view full in-depth inspection reports on each of the items on offer."
