How it works

Three steps. No logins, no calls.

A desk, not a platform. Write in, get a reply.

  1. 01

    You send the spec

    2–3 min

    Machine type or make + model. Budget, hours, country, must-haves if you have them. Two minutes. Email only. No phone number unless you want one.

  2. 02

    We read the market

    A few hours

    We cross-reference what we scrape against the listings our scraper can't see yet: direct dealer calls, auctions, off-list inventory.

  3. 03

    You receive the shortlist

    Within a day

    First reply within a couple of hours so you know we're on it. Full shortlist within a day: three to seven real options, ranked. Each one with asking price vs. market, plus/minus, our pick with a reason. Direct seller links. You decide.

Or start smaller

Got a listing already? Get a verdict in a day.

Same desk, smaller ask. Paste a URL and we’ll tell you whether it’s a fair deal against the live European market, plus what we’d check before you wire money. Most buyers start here, then send the full spec.

  • Asking price vs. live median for the model + year + hours band
  • Red flags we can see (pre-CE, missing paperwork, unusual wear)
  • A straight “buy / pass / inspect” call

We say “buy / pass / inspect” and why. No login, no phone number.

Questions

What buyers ask before they write in.

Is it really free?
Yes. We don't take commission from dealers and we don't charge for the picks. If you later want us to negotiate on your behalf, that's a paid extra — separate conversation, and optional.
How long does it take?
We reply within a couple of hours so you know we've got it. The full shortlist lands within a day, sometimes two. Longer if the spec is unusual: rare attachments, small-market countries, sub-€20k price bands. We tell you up-front if we expect more than a day.
Do I have to buy through you?
No. Every option in the shortlist comes with a direct seller link. You contact the dealer; we stay out of the transaction. We don't take commission from sellers.
Do you handle the negotiation?
If you want us to. Reply to the shortlist with the option you want opened. Most buyers handle the deal themselves. The shortlist is usually enough.
What happens to my data?
Your request stays with us. We don't sell it, we don't post your listings publicly, we don't use it to pressure dealers. Individual matches stay private. That's why we don't show them on the website.
What countries do you cover?
Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Poland, Austria as primary. We work cross-border anywhere in the EU when the spec calls for it. That's usually where the money is.
