DONE FOR YOU / SELL IT ANYWHERE

Sale-ready in one visit.

We photograph and film your actual machine, confirm its specifications and options against the manufacturer, write the listing in English and Spanish, and give you price guidance with the evidence behind it. You get every file. Post it on your own site, any marketplace or an auction, or list it free on The Machine Blue Book. No commission, ever.

PRICE

From $3,000 per machine, plus travel.

Quoted before we book. The $3,000 floor covers one machine at one site with documents ready; larger or more complex machines, several units and extra visits are quoted higher. Travel time and travel expenses are billed separately and agreed before anything is booked.

WHAT YOU GET

Everything a buyer needs to see, in one package.

Every item is about your actual unit. Nothing is staged, retouched or borrowed from another machine.

VIDEO

A 60–120 second walkaround

A factual film of the unit. When your own qualified operator runs it, we film the spindle, axis moves and a tool change, dated on screen.

SPECIFICATIONS

A spec and options sheet

Model specifications confirmed against the manufacturer, plus this unit's options, each marked as seen, stated by you or taken from a document.

LISTING COPY

English and Spanish copy

A master listing plus long, marketplace and short versions, reviewed by people, ready to paste into the channel you choose.

PRICE EVIDENCE

Dated price guidance

Published asking prices and documented sales for comparable machines, labeled as which is which, with sources. You decide the price.

BUYER PACK

A printable buyer information pack

Specs, options, a photo index, inspection questions, removal and rigging notes, power requirements and a document list.

HOW A VISIT WORKS

Five steps, one machine.

  1. Request a quote below with the make, model and where the machine is.
  2. We confirm scope, travel and a fixed price in writing before anything is booked.
  3. You send the documents and option list you have; we prepare the shot list and the spec research.
  4. One site visit of up to four hours. Your qualified operator runs the machine if a running demo is wanted.
  5. Delivery of every file through a private download link, with one revision round included.
WHAT WE DON'T DO

Clear limits, so the package stays honest.

  • We don't inspect, certify or warrant the machine.
  • We don't operate your machine or open energized cabinets; your qualified person does, or the shot is skipped and noted.
  • Price guidance is not an appraisal for a bank, tax, insurance or court purpose.
  • We don't post for you, run your accounts, take a commission or guarantee a sale.
  • Buying a package doesn't change MBB's research, estimates or how any listing is reviewed.
Listing on MBB stays free.

You can list the machine on MBB at no cost, with or without this package. A package buys production work only: it never buys verification, placement or a different review. List your machine free →

QUESTIONS

Do I have to list on MBB?

No. The files are yours to use anywhere. A free MBB listing is optional and goes through the same review as every other listing.

Who owns the photos and video?

You receive a license to use them to sell this machine, on any channel. We show them as examples only with your permission.

Where do you travel?

Anywhere we can reach. Travel time and expenses are quoted separately and agreed before booking.

What if the machine can't be run?

Then the video shows the machine powered or at rest, and the buyer pack says so. Nothing is implied that wasn't filmed.
