GL sell in lots

[JeepMan]

I'm really suprised that GL does'nt bundle stuff togather and sell in lots like the DMRO did. Look at all the work in "onse's and twos'es". I mean for example, there's a bunch of ammo trailers being offered. Bundle them up in a lot and sell them and make room for more good stuff. How many people can use an ammo trailer? Yes, they're heavy duty for sure but the actual carring area is small compared to other trailers.
Even trucks, sell 2-4-6 at a time. I mean how many driveways can have dueces in them ??!!

Smaller lots means you sell to the end user and not just resellers.

That means more bidders.

More bidders= higher prices.

As a dealer, sure I would love to see stuff start going in bigger lots, but I understand why GL does the exact opposite.

I agree with you that GL seems to be managed inefficiently at times. They most know somebody, who knows somebody, to hold on to their contact with the military.

I’m sure there are numerous guys on this site that could do a better job running that company.

If Steel Soldiers ever decided to do “a hostel” take over of GL… I would be your first investor.

I think some of the lots the sell now need to be broken down into smaller groups.

Just ask your site rep., he may just do it. Mine did.

I was talking to a GL employee a while back. He had tried to lot some equipment that was on pallets in to lots of 12 pallets. The auction was in the preview stages when somebody higher up called him up and told him to pull the sale and redo them as lots of 6 pallets.

Gotta make more money.

He was doing it to try to make room.

GL math......10 items in 1 lot @ $150.00 min bid = $150.00+Selling price+10% buyers premium+tax times 1.

10 items in 10 lots @ $150.00 min bid = $150.00+ Selling price+10% buyers premium+ tax times 10.

No brainer for GL bean counters.

I remember the lot sales at DRMO....it was hard to compete with the big guys that could afford to buy 30 deuces at a time.
