How to Sell Equipment or Access Equipt Pro on Equipt
Updated
Equipt provides a dedicated “Sell your equipment” entry point for sellers, alongside auction and rental listings you can review before choosing a selling format. The site also links to Equipt Pro at equipt.com/pro, which is described as a subscription offering. The public page does not spell out Pro's exact features or price, so treat the link as the starting point for a seller-service inquiry rather than a confirmed feature list.
Selling on Equipt: What the Marketplace Looks Like First
Before listing, it helps to know the scale you are joining. According to the site's market summary:
| Metric | Figure |
|---|---|
| Live equipment listings | 985,156 |
| Total listed value | ~USD $14.47 billion |
| Sellers in current results | 1,394 |
| Asking price range | USD $0.01 – $7,000,000 |
| Average listing price | USD $5,403.38 |
| Median listing price | USD $227.00 |
The wide gap between average and median tells you the catalog is dominated by many low-priced items, with a small number of high-value machines pulling the average up. If you are pricing a listing, compare against your own category rather than the site-wide average.
Category sizes to benchmark against
The largest listing pools shown on the page are:
- Metalworking — 320,491 listings
- Robotics & Automation — 215,669 listings
- Electrical & Power — 214,213 listings
- Processing & Packaging — 177,639 listings
- Electronics Manufacturing — 144,947 listings
- Commercial Equipment & Supplies — 100,432 listings
- Medical & Laboratory — 86,982 listings
- Material Handling — 34,397 listings
- Construction — 26,668 listings
- Printing & Paper — 23,851 listings
- Woodworking — 15,789 listings
- Trucks/Trailers — 10,582 listings
- Agriculture (Farm) — 7,445 listings
A denser category means more competing listings but also more buyer traffic; a thinner category like Agriculture means less competition but fewer comparable sales to price against.
Step-by-Step: Listing Your Equipment
- Go to the “Sell your equipment” link on the Equipt marketplace page. This is the seller entry point the site itself points to.
- Choose your category from the catalog structure above (e.g., Metalworking, Material Handling, Construction). Correct categorization determines which buyers see your listing.
- Prepare listing details — brand, condition (used vs. new), specifications, and location. The search filters on the site use exactly these fields, so buyers will find you through them.
- Set an asking price using the range and median as a sanity check, and compare against similar listings in your category.
- Consider adding video. The marketplace surfaces listing videos (“Watch matching equipment before you shortlist”), and the sample results include video for high-value machines such as injection molding equipment. For expensive items, video appears to be part of how top listings are presented.
Expected result: your equipment appears in the catalog and becomes searchable through keyword search or the AI search tool on the site.
Common sticking points: the page does not document seller fees, listing duration, or approval steps. Confirm these through the sell flow itself before committing to a listing.
Accessing Equipt Pro
Equipt Pro is linked from the main site at equipt.com/pro and is associated with a subscription model. The public marketplace page does not list Pro's price, included services, or whether it is aimed at sellers, buyers, or both.
To evaluate it:
- Open equipt.com/pro directly.
- Check what the subscription includes — for example, whether it covers enhanced listing visibility, lead access, or valuation tools.
- Compare the subscription cost against your expected sale volume; a Pro plan only makes sense if the added exposure or tools exceed the fee for your inventory.
If the Pro page requires an account or shows pricing only after sign-up, that is a signal to register a free account first and review terms before subscribing.
Choosing a Selling Format: Direct Listing vs. Auction vs. Rental
The marketplace exposes three transaction paths — standard listings, equipment at auction, and equipment rental listings. There is no single right choice; it depends on your goal:
- Direct listing suits sellers who have a target price and can wait for the right buyer. The median asking price of $227 suggests most items here are modest and priced individually.
- Auction suits sellers who want a defined timeline and market-set price, common for higher-value industrial machines.
- Rental suits owners of equipment with ongoing demand who prefer recurring revenue over a one-time sale.
Review live examples in each channel before deciding — the site links to all three from the main marketplace page.
Practical Checks Before You List
- Confirm your category has active buyers by checking listing counts and recent brands (ALLEN BRADLEY, FANUC, and KUKA are the most active brands site-wide).
- Note that listings concentrate in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom — location filtering matters for cross-border sales.
- Use the AI search or keyword search as a buyer would, to see how your planned title and specs would surface.
- Verify any fee, commission, or subscription term on the sell page or Pro page itself; the public marketplace summary does not state them.
