Swisher knew that an online auction would bring the best return for the customer given the short turnaround time. He had also witnessed several months’ worth of record-breaking selling prices on AuctionTime.com. Midwest sold the customer’s entire package on the platform’s June 23rd and 30th sales.

The results on AuctionTime.com were strong. Midwest Equipment’s auctions attracted bidders from four continents, bringing in $1.1 million in total sales.

“With help from AuctionTime, we are able to short-cycle equipment and achieve good prices,” Swisher said. “The customer maintains their equipment very well, which has a big reflection in the price of their equipment. Also, we strive to ensure our listings are the best quality possible so our buyers know exactly what they are buying.”

“Because of our sales cycle and weekly auctions, we were able to not only accommodate the customer’s time frame, but also to exceed expectations with values,” said Matt Sterup, manager, Machinery Trader Contractor Sales.
