Common Questions From Buyers and Sellers

BUYING EQUIPMENT

We do not intentionally list non-functional or “for parts” equipment. Our reputation is built on honesty—if a machine doesn’t work, we remove it from the sale.  Please remember that older equipment may require routine maintenance or replacement of common wear items such as belts or rollers. While Boggs Equipment believes all equipment sold is in working condition, please also keep in mind that our products are used and are sold as-is, without warranty.

All of the product information is in the description, we often do not know the counts on machines until we fire up the machine for a video. Fill out our contact form, call our office, or use our chat bot in the bottom right corner of the website.

We can take wired payments, credit card, check.  WE DO NOT TAKE PAYMENT OVER THE PHONE.

No, products are sold as-is with no warranty.

Yes.

Our inventory is constantly changing. We receive new equipment daily and typically upload new listings at least three times per week. Machines remain on our website until they are sold. Some items may also be placed into our monthly auctions, where they can be purchased at auction pricing. Once an item sells—whether through the website or auction—it is marked out of stock.

Yes. In many cases, we service machines ourselves by sourcing parts and completing repairs in-house. If a machine requires specialized service beyond our capabilities, we can recommend trusted technicians or service providers. All machines are presumed to be in working condition when they are taken out of service unless otherwise noted.

We do not provide downloadable manuals with our listings. The specifications and descriptions shown are compiled from manufacturer manuals, brochures, online resources, and machine spec plates. Descriptions are often based on manufacturer information. Because configurations and features can vary, there may occasionally be discrepancies. In all cases, the photographs of the actual machine should be considered the most accurate representation of what is included and its condition.

AUCTIONS

Another bidder has likely placed a higher maximum bid. The system automatically places incremental bids on their behalf, ensuring they stay in the lead at the lowest possible price until their top limit is reached. Their maximum bid is confidential, but you can place your own at WireBids. 

Our auctions have a five-minute extension feature. If someone places a bid within the last minute, the timer increases by five minutes to give other bidders another opportunity to win. The auction can continue to extend in five-minute increments as long as new bids are placed.

You can complete your payment online through WireBids. We’ll contact you the day after the auction  to confirm your shipping information. Once confirmed, we’ll schedule delivery as we plan our shipping routes.

Yes! Please call and schedule a time to come by and take a look – we are open Monday through Friday from 8am to 2pm. We do ask that you give us 24 hour notice prior to visiting.

Yes. A 10% buyer’s premium is applied to all auction purchases. This premium is added to the final hammer price and will be included in your invoice.
