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 Luminometer and lab equipment, are photographed and posted for on-line viewing.

Dovebid also markets assets extensively in order to get the maximum value for them. Marketing can be done online, through email, as well as through newspapers, brochures and post cards. Direct marketing is also carried out by compiling lists of assets sought out by buyers. A buyer looking for a Luminometer, for example, will be informed via email when this item is available for sale.
For a company interested in purchasing specialized equipment such as a Luminometer, Dovebid offers many value-added services. Dovebid Inspection Services is available for international buyers who cannot view assets personally. Through this service, a remote buyer can choose to make use of an experienced asset inspector to inspect and review any asset in order to assist with the purchasing decision. Webcast auctions broadcast live auctions over the Internet so that buyers worldwide can benefit from the auctions.
DoveBid’s Auctionlease can provide quick access to the funding required in order to make purchases through Dovebid auctions, for buyers who require their assets to be financed. Unlike getting a loan from the bank, these leases require little or no down payment. Leasing also allows the buyer to mix different types of equipment from the same auction, example a digital multimeter, a Luminometer and a lab oven, into the lease. . The lease from Auctionlease covers the total financing costs. Using Auctionlease to purchase a Luminometer or digital multimeter would allow a buyer to conserve capital because the lease amount would be inclusive of any buyer’s premium or sales tax. Dovebid covers all perspectives of the buying and selling of used capital assets in order to ensure customer fulfillment.
