Program Details
Q360's Silver Preowned Broker Program
Direct access to the market's best equipment opportunities, as-is, where-is.
What is Q360's Silver Preowned Broker Program?
Q360's Silver Preowned Broker Program is built for buyers who want maximum value and direct access to available equipment in the marketplace. Equipment is offered on a brokered, as-is, where-is basis, without refurbishment, inspection, or warranty. That keeps your acquisition at the lowest possible investment level while you keep full control over evaluation, upgrades, and post-sale decisions.
The difference is who's doing the brokering. With 250+ years of combined industry experience and more than 1,000 brokered equipment transactions completed, our team knows how to identify real opportunities, navigate deals, and connect buyers with the right equipment quickly. We don't just list equipment. We leverage deep market relationships, source hard-to-find machines, and help buyers act fast on the right opportunities.
