BidItUp Auction & Appraisal Reviews

The Mitsubishi plant was marketed by BidItUp both as a piecemeal disposition and as a going concern. Their team acted with diligence, skill, and professionalism—ultimately securing a turnkey buyer and delivering exceptional results.

Former Mitsubishi Motors Facility

BidItUp’s team demonstrated exceptional knowledge of complex manufacturing assets and managed the process with transparency and precision. Their ability to navigate both the technical and logistical sides of the transaction gave us confidence at every step. Acquiring the Mitsubishi facility as a turnkey operation was seamless thanks to their diligence and service.

The BidItUp auction was a great success based on the phone calls that we shared. We shared figures which delighted both them and me. It was much more than either of us ever imagined.

Bernard Limbertos was an important element to the successes of the physical set-up. During the Buyer's pick-up days, he was extremely organized in the auction preparation and set-up; he remained focused and self-managed; he gained all of our trust and acceptance within the first day. Then, yet again he was relaxed and easy going during the buyer’s pick-up. We experienced no negative feedback or dissatisfied customers during his time in our Plant. Carlisle was fortunate that Bernard was assigned to our auction. We've personally thanked him and expressed our appreciation. However, please share our expressions with your peers and owners, in our behalf.

All of the auctioned items were removed from the Vancouver Plant on or before Tuesday, July 27th. However, it is my understanding that the buyers were invoiced and were required to pay or guarantee payment before pick up, and to the best of my knowledge only 12 lots of the 310 lots did not sell. This is another point of success; we had very little to scrap.

It has been my pleasure meeting and working with you; it has also been an interesting experience, and I must say that I am glad it is your profession and not mine.

Our corporation has been doing business with BidItUp for over 20 years. They are very professional in the way they handle an auction from the first estimate, day of the auction to final settlement. Our group has done six auctions with this company with no regrets.

With respect to asset disposition and loss recovery, it is very rare these days to engage a service provider such as BidItUp that seems to consistently meet our extraordinarily high standards with respect to initiating, monitoring and completing a public sale or other form of asset disposition. BidItUp, Steve Mattes, and his team, not only consistently meet our expectations, they often exceed them. I have found their services to be dependable, friendly and totally transparent. Moreover, their often aggressive and competitive approach to the auction process itself has resulted in a number of spirited events and increased recoveries. Finally, BidItUp's attention to detail, particularly in the proper and orderly exit of a third party facility upon completion of an event, as well as their willingness to address my client’s needs are extremely important to the conduct of my business and essential to maintaining continuing relationships with my constituents and referral sources who rely on me to manage their overall liquidation process.

I am pleased to provide this letter of recommendation for BidItUp based upon the excellent experience that Great Dane has enjoyed with you and your company over the past seven years. BidItUp performed two auctions of machinery and equipment at Great Dane's plants during this time frame, one very large and another more modest. We were happy with sales proceeds that we received in both instances, the flexible deal terms that you quoted, and the professionalism of your staff in preparing for and carrying out the auction, and the handling of the subsequent equipment pickup logistics. You have also been very helpful to us in brainstorming excess asset valuations and disposal strategies, even in those cases when we choose a different disposal path. When Great Dane has an asset disposition issue, you are the first party that we contact, and we are presently in discussions with you re our third machinery and equipment auction. Repeat business with your customers is the ultimate proof of an excellent vendor.

- Thomas J. Czapka, Vice President Business Development

I routinely sell equipment at my place of business and have had a couple auctions over the many years. The auction conducted by BidItUp was the most profitable and required the least amount of time investment by my employees to prepare. Throughout the entire process, the BidItUp staff was more professional, courteous, and well-organized. The auction progressed in an orderly efficient manner with absolutely no negative matters arising out of the auction. Payment was prompt, and the BidItUp staff stayed on site for many days afterward to oversee the removal of the machinery and equipment. I am also pleased to state that no negative issues developed during the removal process either. I would and will use BidItUp in the future when selling/auctioning excess machinery and equipment.

BIDITUP has always performed in a very professional manner and has been extremely responsive to our needs when I was with APW and again since I've been here with Honda R&D. Having worked with several equipment brokers I can honestly say BIDITUP is the first I call when I need a quick response time for any equipment and asset sale I come across.

Thanks to you and your team of professionals, we have managed a successful wind-down and liquidation of our precision tooling business. Prior to meeting you, we had good reason to believe that the value of our equipment was greater than the ongoing business. However, you created and executed a plan that exceeded our expectations for financial recovery, and we thank you. We were particularly grateful that your approach enabled our ownership team to remain in control of our business as we converted work-in-process to finished good prior to the sale of our equipment. This was an important element in our overall financial recovery. BIDITUP's team did a great job preparing our shop for the sale, and the organization on sale day was truly remarkable. The advance marketing of our sale resulted in a large and diverse group of prospective buyers on auction day. Your experience in handling the auction process brought home a winner for all of us. In summary, we are very pleased that we partnered up with BIDITUP and would not hesitate to recommend your services. Please thank all of your associates for a job well done.

I have known the individuals at BIDITUP for over 15 years. I have both represented them in transactions as well as used them to acquire assets of my clients both in and out of bankruptcy. I find that the personnel at BIDITUP are both knowledgeable about the values that can be obtained for equipment and real estate. They are currently either the top bidder for the equipment or have forced the final bidder to go higher. They are professional in the way they conduct sales. The sales are well advertised and have the most current technology to produce the highest return. They are very good at bringing the property back into the broom clean shape with out any damage caused by their being on site. I would and have recommended them on numerous occasions to be the auctioneer of choice in various transactions. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

BidItUp produced results that were favorable to the creditors and the payout exceeded expectations. That’s what it’s all about.

Conway MacKenzie, Inc.

There are so many people who call themselves professionals, even though most of them are not qualified as professionals. When my brother-in-law passed away suddenly, I was thrown into the business of heavy machinery that I am not familiar with at all. When BidItUp was introduced to me through a friend, I was very skeptical about everything, including auctioning off what my brother-in-law had built up during the past fifteen years of his life. BidItUp made the asset purchase offer. I think it was very fair, and I took it on behalf of my brother-in-law’s family because I did not want them to go through the auctioning off ordeal. As I watched BidItUp prepare the whole auctioning process, I knew that I was in good hands, and I saw how truly professional the auctioneers were, as well as the office staff. BidItUp took care of my family when we really needed the most help. Furthermore, they assured and provided financial stability to my family. I strongly recommend BidItUp to anyone who needs to auction off heavy equipment because their knowledge is second to none, and they are true professionals.

In 2008, our company had the difficult task of closing down a glass manufacturing plant in Fullerton, CA. Some equipment was transferred to our other manufacturing locations, but surplus equipment was destined for the scrap pile. After contacting BidItUp in Studio City, CA, the representative explained their online auctioning services and requested an equipment list. Later, he met me at the site to inspect the equipment. I was pleased that he found a couple other pieces of value that we had ignored. We signed a simple consignment agreement and BidItUp started to work. After the bidding process ended, the new buyers of the surplus equipment came by the site to pick up the items. About 50 days after signing the agreement, we were pleased to obtain a complete report and return. Overall, this was an easy process. BidItUp upheld everything they promised and the results were fantastic.

The location was very remote and a decision was made to liquidate all of the machinery and equipment including the buildings on the land. BidItUp Auctions Worldwide was chosen for the project because of their paper mill and demolition expertise. They very quickly conducted a very successful onsite auction and sold equipment to other paper mills throughout the world. In addition, they were able to competitively auction the buildings to demolition companies and had them removed in weeks. We would not hesitate to recommend BidItUp's Auction services.

The building was left in good condition and Tara was a pleasure to work with as was the entire BidItUp team. I would not hesitate in recommending BidItUp services.

I wanted to pass along my sincere appreciation for your support and participation in the recent project we completed with your company. As you know, we went through a structural transition in our business that allowed us to close our facility in Skokie, IL. This was a challenging project for us and effectively dispositioning the excess machine capacity was critical to the overall success. After much research, we determined that your organization was the most professional, provided the best value, and was best equipped to handle this part of the project. The execution of the project was a great success. Your team did a fantastic job in preparing the lots for sale and the marketing effort brought in a significant number of potential buyers. Your team clearly understood the process thoroughly, was very patient in working with us and, without a doubt, your offer was extremely competitive. Your team was flexible with our changing timeline and operated with machine-like precision. I sincerely appreciate the efficiency with which you dealt with our transaction. You met each and every commitment, were timely with all obligations, and were professional in every respect of the word. I greatly appreciate your support and guidance and thank you for handling this project for us.

Maglev located in PA was a robotic welding and fab shop. The main center piece of the facility was a multi axis CNC Beam Welder which cost new $1.700.000. The technology was fairly new to the market and to the best of our knowledge had never been offered before at a public auction. The technology provided for welding gigantic structures to reduce stress on the radius of super structure parts. The sale achieved greater than expected goals. The auction team did a great job in the setup, auction and removal.

I would like to thank the BidItUp organization for the great job they did in selling the remaining manufacturing equipment from our 400,000 sq. ft. facility in Los Angeles, CA. BidItUp was contacted along with several other auction companies and ultimately provided us with the best cash up front guarantee prior to the auction for our equipment. BidItUp had worldwide reach and sold all of the assets to a foreign company whose intention was to redeploy the assets for use in North America. BidItUp far exceeded our expectations and was a pleasure to work with. The transaction was completed just as they said it would be and I would without hesitation recommend them for any liquidation project.

Thank you BidItUp team! Best of luck in your future auctions!

I would like to extend my thanks to BidItUp for the recent successful online auction they conducted on behalf of Chief Buildings.

I wanted to pass along my sincere appreciation for your support and participation in the recent project we completed with your company. As you know, we went through a structural transition and had to close our Frankfort, IN production facility. This was a new process to us and we spent significant time working with your company as well as many others to determine who we felt the most comfortable with and who could provide the best value for our business. After much research, we determined that your organization was the most professional, provided the best value, and was best equipped to handle our project. As always, the initial agreement to do business is just the start. The next challenge comes in you actually doing what you said you would do. I would like to first say, you did that and more. The day after the agreement was signed, your team was in our facility handling the asset 'lotting'. Your team was very flexible in working around the many activities we had going on in the plant. They were efficient and diligent with their efforts and completed the entire process within 1 week. Within 3 more weeks, the auction was taking place. We were initially concerned about having numerous 'strangers' in our plant during the auction process. However, it was well-organized and left no risk open to us. Within 3 weeks of the auction being completed, absolutely everything was removed from our plant and you left the plant clean and organized. Your team clearly understood the process thoroughly, was very patient in working with us and, without a doubt, your offer was extremely competitive. Your team was flexible with our changing timeline and operated with machine-like precision. I sincerely appreciate the efficiency with which you dealt with our transaction. You met each and every commitment, were timely with all obligations, and were professional in every respect of the word. I greatly appreciate your support and guidance and thank you for handling this project for us.

Steve & Rick, You and your crew did an outstanding job and we are more than pleased with the outcome. There was not a whole lot to work with and the location also makes it harder than most to get people in there and make things happen. The big picture is what counts and that the final goal is achieved. Thanks to you and your crew, it was a good Friday for us. Thanks again.
