The third quarter was highlighted by the announcement of bidadoo’s strategic partnership with eBay, along with a spike of over 77% in new seller accounts through Q3, 2021 year-over-year. The strategic partnership combines the powerful platform and global reach of eBay with the proven capabilities and experience of bidadoo.
“By harnessing the capabilities and experience of bidadoo — the largest industrial seller on the platform — eBay can offer end-to-end transactions that are more transparent and efficient, while boosting buyer confidence in their purchase without having to see an item in person.” Says Chris Prill, Vice President of eBay Motors, North America. “This partnership accelerates our goal of better serving Business and Industrial (B&I) buyers and sellers by offering a single, trusted destination for the entire transaction. As eBay and bidadoo build on our 18 year relationship, we’ll expand marketplace offerings and hone existing ones to become the leading heavy equipment solution in the market.”

As eBay and bidadoo build on our 18 year relationship, we’ll expand marketplace offerings and hone existing ones to become the leading heavy equipment solution in the market.
Record strong demand and supply chain issues have led to record price performance in the market, making for a very strong seller’s market. With selling prices up 25% to 40% in many asset categories, customers recognize it is a great time to sell equipment and fleet assets. Through the Covid pandemic, customers have also realized the efficiencies and benefits of the online model, while many traditional models have been forced to shutter. Customers recognize the more efficient online model doesn’t require the physical stockpiling and storage of equipment to create an auction event – they can simply sell equipment when and where they want. Customers in record numbers are now buying and selling heavy equipment and trucks online than ever before.
“The recent huge growth in sellers shows the overwhelming support of customers toward the eBay strategic partnership announcement, and confidence in the platform” says Howard Hawk, bidadoo’s President. “Equipment and fleet owners have partnered with bidadoo in record numbers as they understand the power of eBay combined with the industry capabilities and service of bidadoo. We are honored to see the excitement of so many new customers as they put their trust in bidadoo and see the value this new partnership brings to their business.”
