Slumdog Millionaire: who gets the most out of used cars

0
The secondary market is becoming the main supplier of cars, not only for private garages, but also for corporate parks. Moreover: some models simply cannot be bought new – only if they have been used. Therefore, the trades and pickers’ trades flourished in a violent color. But only if some “specialists” barely make ends meet, then others “raise” millions on “used” cars. How? The answer to this question is in the material of the AvtoVzglyad portal.

The process of buying a car today is very different from before the well-known events: Russians turn less and less to dealers and more and more often to private advertising. The market is gradually being rebuilt for the “secondary”, because often you will only find a car in this segment that meets the requirements. In addition, both “private traders” and rather large organizations are watching the “beushki”, where there are completely different budgets and, as a result, fees for “pickers” and resellers.

The dealers of the “grey zone”, which at all times and under all flags has been the market for used goods, know very well that in the segment of cheap cars you can only make money on quantity (which is difficult and long) or on direct deception, on which it is very easy to get burned. Yes, and various services make life extremely complicated these days. Therefore, the majority prefers a simpler and more profitable way – working with premium cars. Although you can’t call it simple either.

The fact is that in the segment of “status” cars the competition has become very tough. So much so that without multimillion-dollar budgets and serious connections, it is better not to even try to enter this market – it will be more expensive for yourself. So where do resellers and pickers make their money these days? In an industry where there is more “air” and the fees are often higher – in company cars. Especially in the segment of tractors and other heavy equipment.

To assess the possible level of income, just look at any free classifieds board and “touch the beauty”: prices for tractors, combine harvesters, trucks and other “hard workers” are skyrocketing! There are no new cars, the “Chinese” are scarce, and household equipment is far from suitable for everyone. Our country is huge – there are many organizations that need transportation. Conclusion: money is coming.

However, this segment also has its own rules and “filters”: a thickness gauge and catchy photos on social networks are not enough to earn even the first rubles. It requires knowledge and experience, an understanding of the truck structure and the weaknesses of each model, the ability to use a tachograph and complex diagnostic equipment.

But the game is worth the candle: today transport and logistics companies pay tens of thousands of rubles to pickers across the country looking for cars for them. And this market is not yet filled with hundreds of sufferers slapping their foreheads at every deal. Maybe time to retrain?
