Vehicle inspection
As soon as I have received your demand, I plan a trip to the location of the seller. My working area for vehicle inspections is a circle of about 400 km around the south of the Netherlands. That means I cover the complete Netherlands, but also big parts of Belgium, Luxemburg, Germany and the north of France. If a vehicle is located outside these regions, I will contact you to see what I can do for you.
Vehicle inspection
As a next step I personally drive to the seller. On the site I execute the following checks:
General condition: does the appearance of the truck match the price and age?
Control of the V.I.N. number and the accompanying papers and certificates.
Complete technical inspection, checkup on the vehicle on important points such as oil leaks, water and air leaks, condition of the various components such as tail lifts, loading cranes etc.
Test drive, paying particular attention to the operation of the clutch, gearbox (synchromesh rings) and brakes.
Checking and condition of the tires.
Extensive photo and video report.
Inspection report with repair and maintenance advice.
Possibility to have a live video connection during the inspection.
After the vehicle inspection
After the check I send you a complete and detailed inspection report within two working days.
The rate of the vehicle (truck or van) inspection as described above is 485 euros VAT excluded. I require a pre-payment after which I will schedule the inspection as soon as possible, depending on the seller’s schedule.
If you decide to buy equipment at a low price, make sure that you communicate with the real seller. Find out as much information about the owner of the equipment as possible. One way of cheating is to represent yourself as a real company. In case of suspicion, inform us about this for additional control, through the feedback form.
Before you decide to make a purchase, carefully review several sales offers to understand the average cost of your chosen equipment. If the price of the offer you like is much lower than similar offers, think about it. A significant price difference may indicate hidden defects or an attempt by the seller to commit fraudulent acts.
Do not buy products which price is too different from the average price for similar equipment.
Do not give consent to dubious pledges and prepaid goods. In case of doubt, do not be afraid to clarify details, ask for additional photographs and documents for equipment, check the authenticity of documents, ask questions.
The most common type of fraud. Unfair sellers may request a certain amount of advance payment to “book” your right to purchase equipment. Thus, fraudsters can collect a large amount and disappear, no longer get in touch.
- Transfer of prepayment to the card
- Do not make an advance payment without paperwork confirming the process of transferring money, if during the communication the seller is in doubt.
- Transfer to the “Trustee” account
- Such a request should be alarming, most likely you are communicating with a fraudster.
- Transfer to a company account with a similar name
- Be careful, fraudsters may disguise themselves as well-known companies, making minor changes to the name. Do not transfer funds if the company name is in doubt.
- Substitution of own details in the invoice of a real company
- Before making a transfer, make sure that the specified details are correct, and whether they relate to the specified company.
