issues reported

A dental practice in Texas was outfitting a new operatory. They needed a chair and operating light but didn't want to pay $15,000+ for brand new. They found the listing on Operatory Auctions, placed a bid, and won.

This is exactly how the transaction went. from the moment bidding closed to the equipment being installed and operational in the buyer's practice.

Bidding closed. Payment split.

The buyer paid 10% upfront to secure the equipment before it shipped. The remaining 90% was due upon delivery and successful installation.

This split-payment structure protects both sides. The seller knows the buyer is committed. The buyer doesn't pay in full until the equipment is physically in their space and working.

Professional delivery and installation

We coordinated the entire logistics chain. The chair and LED operating light were professionally wrapped, loaded, transported, and delivered directly to the buyer's operatory.

On-site, experienced technicians unwrapped the equipment, positioned it, connected plumbing and electrical, mounted the light arm, and tested everything. The buyer didn't lift a finger.

10 days, start to finish

From the moment bidding closed to the equipment being fully operational in the buyer's practice. 10 days. That includes scheduling, transport, and professional installation.

The seller was paid within 5 business days of the transaction completing. No holdups, no chasing payments, no friction.

Equipment verified. No issues.

After installation, the buyer confirmed everything was working as expected. Chair hydraulics, light positioning, foot controls. all operational. No reported issues or concerns.

The buyer has since followed up interested in purchasing more equipment through us. One transaction became a relationship.
