Everything you need to know about purchasing used farm machinery by auction with E-FARM

About the auctioning process

• How do I take part in an auction? Participating in E-FARM's auction is a straightforward process. Prior to placing a bid, users are required to complete a registration by providing their contact details and verifying their email address. Participants must be at least 18 years old and qualify as commercial customers, which means they need to possess a valid VAT ID number. Once registration is successfully completed, users can proceed to bid on one or multiple items available for auction.
• What kind of machines are being auctioned? All featured machines are used machines from authorized and pre-selected dealers located in Denmark, Germany, or Austria. The listed machines encompass various machinery types such as tractors, combines, or ploughs from leading brands like John Deere, Claas, or Kuhn. Many auctions also include spare parts like sets of tires. Before bidding, take a look at the mix of machinery offered for a particular auction.
• Can I contact someone if I have a question? Yes, our sales representatives are readily available to assist you with any questions you may have. Most likely, one of them even speaks your language. Look for the contact person listed in the auction and reach out to them.
• What information do I receive about a machine up for auction? We aim to maximize transparency about the machine, including machinery data, history, and condition. By clicking the link at the top of the machine's description, you should find all the details, likely also in your language. Please be aware that the information was provided by the seller and does not constitute a warranty from a third party. However, an abundance of photos and a video taken shortly before the auction should assist you in making an informed decision.
• Is there a minimum bid price and fixed bid intervals? Each machine has an individual minimum price. You can only bid in predefined and individually adjusted intervals per machine type. Please also note that bidding intervals can be changed during the auction.
• How do I know I am outbidden on my chosen machine? Once another bidder exceeds your bid, you will be notified via email. You will then have the option to place another bid or explore similar machines from our offers.
• Can I withdraw my bid? No, bids that have been made are binding.

• How do I know the machines are in good condition? All machines auctioned are offered by our trusted partner dealers with whom we have a longstanding relationship. However, please note that the information provided in the machinery description is furnished by the seller and not a third party. This information simplifies your decision-making process but does not constitute a warranty. Nevertheless, a substantial number of photos and a video taken shortly before the auction should help you make an informed judgment.
