Desoldering

Dovebid is a world leader in carrying out capital-asset auctions that are industry-specific. These auctions amount to billions of dollars in assets. Government agencies, financial institutions and large corporations are aided in their asset disposal needs, by Dovebid auctions, in order to get the greatest value for their capital assets. Desoldering equipment is an example of a capital asset that a company would have to sell through an industry-specific auction in order to get its highest value from the asset disposal process.

There are over 25 asset categories that are covered by Dovebid. With valuation and auction experience of over six decades, Dovebid understands the capital equipment market. Dovebid conducts auctions worldwide and have offices in over 40 sites throughout North America, Asia-Pacific and Europe. Dovebid has the resources throughout the world to manage the entire asset disposal process, be it a consignment of machinery used for desoldering, or an individual item. Some well-known companies that have conducted multiple auctions with Dovebid are AT&T, Boeing, Daimler Chrysler, General Electric, Packard Bell, Xerox and Ford Motor Company.

There are various advantages for prospective buyers, when choosing to buy through Dovebid auctions. Through Webcast auctions, buyers are able to participate in both on-location and on-line auctions. This is because these auctions are broadcast live on the Internet. Real-time updates via email will inform buyers, who are interested in particular assets, when these assets become available. A buyer interested in desoldering machinery and tools could view digital pictures of the products on-line, as well as view a comprehensive asset description. A 360-degree virtual tour could also be available. These services are available in multiple languages to assist foreign buyers.

Buyers can also make use of the transaction support services that are available. Auctionlease is one of DoveBid’s transaction support services. This service can provide finance to purchase the assets you require. This maximizes a buyer’s chances of winning the bidding. Leasing gives the benefit for buyers of allowing a mix of different types of assets on the lease. Leasing also requires a very small or no down payment, unlike getting finance through the bank. The lease from Auctionlease covers the total financing costs. Using Auctionlease to purchase desoldering tools or equipment would allow a buyer to conserve capital because the lease amount would be inclusive of any buyer’s premium or sales tax. Auctionlease, however, is only available for buyers and goods from the US.

Dovebid also offers various value added services to sellers. An asset preparation process is always undertaken by Dovebid. This ensures that the maximum value is gained for the asset on auction. Through Dovebid Valuation Services (DVS), assets are carefully valuated. This is done by experienced appraisers, and all evaluations are quality assured and reviewed by senior management. Major assets, such as equipment used in the desoldering process, are photographed and posted for on-line viewing. Marketing is carried out through extensive advertising, through newspapers, customized brochures and postcards, as well as on-line via e-mail and the Internet.
