They are terrible at selling their used equipment. Most of the used stuff at Ripon isn’t even on website. If I’ve ever bought anything used from them I’ve had to find it myself and ask a rep then they try and find it on the system.
Yes ripon site is a complete tip. Stuff everywhere and most not advertised, only been there once recently and it surprised me
What's wrong with the website ? A good list of s/h goods, one click on each to get a detailed description, what would you do differently ?

order was made pre xmas and 'the finer points' to be sorted at a later date . now dealer rep is having his strings pulled to not take in stock but shift what they already have. he is a annoyed as we are. the items in question are less than 5 years old and he sold them to us so he knows the items ..... SALE DUE TO CHANGE IN FARM POLICY i think is the common term
Easy to find and thanksWhat's wrong with the website ? A good list of s/h goods, one click on each to get a detailed description, what would you do differently ?

There's nothing wrong with the website at all its to the same model as all other JD Dealers its just that only a small percentage of what they have on stock or coming in is on there, so if someone existing client or wider circle is looking for something how can they know what is available if it isn't on the website.What's wrong with the website ?

Because there’s only about 5% of what they actually have.What's wrong with the website ? A good list of s/h goods, one click on each to get a detailed description, what would you do differently ?

Your surely not suggesting this list only represents 5% of their stock ? Their must be around 4- 500 items on this list, they don't have 10,000 machines (items) in stock.
You psynic you! How could you suggest such a thing
Go and have a walk round the ripon yard make a note of every machine thats in there, then compare it to the website…….What's wrong with the website ? A good list of s/h goods, one click on each to get a detailed description, what would you do differently ?

So, are you suggesting they list everything on their stock list that is available on the website, as an individual item on the used/new machinery pages ?
Only if you can’t be bothered to update it, they might have considerable less stock if they actually marketed it. I believe Farol have someone dedicated to their eBay site, they wouldn’t do it if it wasn’t worthwhile.
Look at the Barclay businesses, HRN, netherton, Sharmans the family look after trading the s/h book of machinery and the employees look after new sales. That is very telling as those boys know the value of money and how hard earnt it is
Absolute rubbish, take a look at HRN's website and tell me that is all there stock on the website
To be fair a local dealer to us I know has 2 people now full-time driving round the branches on the the s/h stock appraising, photographing and writing the descriptions, running the stocklist, and then generating the website of the stocklist semi automatically, and that's all they do, to try and keep things up to date and also come across with a common approach in photo's, descriptions and pricing across the branches etc
