Hi /biz/,
Usually I only lurk and do small business but recently I came into some heavy equipment for half their regular price. I have no need, and absolutely no idea on how to sell these. What would be the best way on getting these sold? Contacting companies?
There is 2 pizza ovens, this is the small one. There is a giant grinder, a slip roller and servo-shifts.
Machinistbro here, that's an old Leblond lathe! Assuming its in decent actual shape, and depending on if you have the chuck for it and any other tooling, its worth $1000-$3000+ at least here in the South.
You'll get a better estimate if you take more pictures, list whatever came with it, and post that shit on the MACHINIST page on Facebook, we'll help you out more. Theres also some machine tool selling groups on there, and should that fail, just put the bitch on Craigslist (Thats how I bought my personally owned Clausing).
Good luck, those are sweet old machines and someone WILL want it!

Thank you, I'll be sure to check out the facebook page and see what type of information I can get. I have about 7 pieces of equipment.
Where are you at? That's a nice pizza oven and I need one

Cypress, Texas.
Machinist page is closed, I applied. Anyone else have any tips on selling machinery?

they'll probably let you in... That group grows fast!
Besides that fb page, I seen that Sterling Machinery sells machinery from people. Is that any good?
Craigslist believe it or not. I've had really good experiences both buying and selling various equipment on there. A few $15,000+

How much for the pizza oven??

This models selling for a few thousand but it was used in a car garage (Not in a way that would stop usage with food) and I just want to get rid of it so I'm just trying for $750.
For the Pizza Ovens I would contact a local restaurant supply company, they are everywhere and for sure deal in used equipment.

Here's some ideas....
Call some pawn shops in town
List on Craigslist
List on Ebay (pickup only)
Call a few companies in town and see if they are interested.
After you've tried that stuff, see who will pay the most and make the deal.
