I believe that those who often pay attention to the excavator industry will find that the price of new excavators has been decreasing year by year in the past two years, but the second-hand excavator market is still very hot, and the second mobile phone is still the first choice of many engineers. Therefore, many people do not know the reason for this phenomenon. So, let me introduce to you next, what is the reason why so many people still choose second-hand excavators. What is the main reason?
Reason 1: The purchase cost budget is low.
It is important to know that although the price of new excavators is constantly dropping, a 200-type excavator is the cheapest one to be available for more than 500,000 yuan. When some diggers were going to buy the digging machine, they didn't have that much money in their hands, or weren't prepared to spend so much money to buy it. Considering that the basic price of 200-type second-hand excavators of the same brand is stable between 200,000-300,000, they will choose second-hand excavators. It's not that the excavators can't afford new excavators, but they think they can do big things with a small amount of money. why not.
Reason 2: The second-hand excavator has better performance
No matter what brand of new excavator, it has to be run-in for a period of time before it can be operated boldly. At this time, the cost of wasted is also very large. But from the perspective of second-hand excavators, most of them have been used for several years, and they have successfully passed the running-in period. Then, the performance is still very stable in actual use, and the probability of failure will be lower. When this is used for work, basically there will be no problems, which saves maintenance costs in this area, and the operating efficiency will continue to be improved.
Reason 3: More cost-effective without major repairs
Some second-hand excavators that have not undergone major repairs for 1-2 years have a lower purchase cost than new excavators, and on the other hand, they are basically the same in performance or vehicle conditions, and there will not be a big disparity. This is also a core reason why many people choose second-hand excavators. After all, if you buy a new excavator, if you don’t have a stable project you want to sell, you will lose a lot of money invisibly. For customers who buy second-hand, they will indeed make a lot of money. Reduce the cost input in this area.
Reason 4: Good maintenance during the running-in period
Whether you choose a new excavator or a second-hand excavator, you need to do a good job of maintenance. Generally speaking, if the new excavator is not well maintained during the running-in period, it may even experience major damage or malfunction. Therefore, when a new excavator is bought and used during the running-in period, the risks encountered are still relatively large. Especially for those novices who have just learned the excavator and are not experienced enough, it is difficult to do better in the maintenance work during the running-in period. Therefore, in this regard, novices can choose second-hand excavators to practice their hands. After they have a certain amount of capital, they can choose to buy a new excavator.
In short, although the quotations of new excavators have shown a downward trend year by year, for many new diggers, the threshold is still high and difficult to afford. Therefore, these people will still set their sights on the second-hand excavator market. They all want to buy a suitable second-hand excavator for training. After time has accumulated a certain amount of capital, they will consider buying a new machine. After reading these few reasons, I believe that some inexperienced people will choose to buy second-hand excavators, and they think it is more cost-effective.
