Asking price
The public number requested by a seller or intermediary. It may include negotiation room, dealer margin, preparation, loading, warranty or no additional service at all.
Completed-sale price
The documented consideration in a completed transaction. Its usefulness depends on whether configuration, condition, included equipment, currency, timing and transaction terms are known.
Trade-in value
The amount offered as part of another purchase. It can reflect convenience, resale risk, transport, inspection, refurbishment and margin rather than open-market exposure.
Auction result
A time-bound market result shaped by bidder reach, inspection access, buyer premium, removal deadlines, payment terms and the seller's reserve or lack of reserve.
Net proceeds
The amount the seller retains after commission, fees, preparation, loading, storage, taxes where applicable and negotiated credits. This is often the most important seller number.
