The reason for the sale is the same as for the first one: space restrictions. Even after employing more staff (over 30 in Austria and Germany), the refurbish company can only achieve a limited throughput of overhauled machines leaving the stock. Therefore, selling some of the equipment through the auctions in “as is” condition, without refurbishment, seems reasonable. According to the company, these auctions offer some advantages. First, data and images of the equipment are available on the internet in an on-line catalog. Machine and assembly experts offer to answer additional questions. Second, loading the equipment purchased onto a truck is included. The auction sales are starting on-line on October 25th.
