Your money is held by EquipmentOne and only released to the seller after the dispute deadline has passed. You can make a dispute claim within two business days after the removal date, if:We manage disputes in cases of seller misrepresentation and help buyers and sellers reach mutual agreement, which may or may not involve a full or partial refund
The equipment is not available for removal
You can’t take ownership because the equipment has an undisclosed lien or was stolen, or the seller does not disclose the fact that a title/certificate of ownership/registration is not available (note: many items are sold without titles)
The equipment’s usage (hours/mileage) is substantially higher than disclosed
Members who violate our user agreement will be penalized and fined, and may have buying/selling privileges revoked
EquipmentOne is backed by Ritchie Bros., the world’s largest seller of used equipment—established 1958, listed on the New York and Toronto stock exchanges (RBA)
Please note: items are sold as-is, where-is. Sellers are responsible for creating their own lots. EquipmentOne does not warrant the condition of any items nor the accuracy of lots.
How EquipmentOne works
Anyone can search lots on EquipmentOne. Become a member and you can also buy and sell equipment and materials on our secure online marketplace. This is how it works:
1. Easily Create Lots
Our simple, self-serve tool makes it easy to create detailed equipment lots:
Add a few details and let our database fill in the rest
Upload as many photos as you want
Set your own price expectations and timeframe
Establish an asking price—your ideal selling price—and, if you want, add a ‘buy it now’ price
2. Negotiate with Confidence
Interested in buying an item listed on Ritchie Bros. EquipmentOne? Start negotiating!
Review the open, moderated Q&A, or ask questions about a lot
Submit an exact bid, or place a max bid and let the online negotiation engine place competing bids for you, up to your limit
Or ‘buy it now’ if the seller added that option—all negotiations end and the item is sold to you
Seller will sell vs. seller may sell—if the asking price is not reached during the bid period, the seller may choose not to sell
Before you buy, apply for pre-approved equipment financing
3. Settle transactions on our secure site
When a satisfactory deal is reached, our secure escrow service facilitates a safe exchange of money and equipment:
The buyer sends payment to Ritchie Bros. EquipmentOne
When payment is confirmed, the seller releases equipment to the buyer
When the buyer receives the equipment in advertised condition, we release payment to the seller
Buyers and sellers can also take advantage of convenient services, like shipping and insurance
