Ritchie Bros. Sells $52MM in Equipment at Fort Worth Auction



Ritchie Bros. held a two-day auction at its site in Fort Worth, TX, selling more than 3,800 equipment items and trucks for more than $52 million.

More than 4,900 people from 55 countries registered to bid in the unreserved public auction on September 27 – 28, including more than 3,450 registering to bid online. U.S. buyers purchased 90% of the equipment, including 47% purchased by Texas buyers, while international buyers from as far away as Singapore, Saudi Arabia and Germany purchased 10% of the equipment.

“With a full auditorium and strong participation online, we achieved solid equipment and truck pricing on both days of the auction,” said Neal Black, regional sales manager, Ritchie Bros. “Along with large numbers of local and national buyers, we saw a lot of bids from international registrants in this auction, particularly bidders from Mexico, who were buyers or runner-up bidders on many items. We would like to thank all our consignors, bidders and buyers—we look forward to seeing you at our next auction.”

Ritchie Bros. sold equipment for more than 645 owners in the Fort Worth auction.
