Find the machine you want to buy used

Type the model name, or tap a machine type. Either way you land on the model's own page, on its Used option.

or pick a machine type

Not sure which machine suits the job? The machine finder asks three questions and names the type and size.

  1. 1

    Open the model page

    Search the model above or pick a machine type. Every model page holds the specifications, the new price for comparison and the buying guide for that machine type.

  2. 2

    Choose Used under Buying Options

    Tell us your budget, the age or hours you will accept, and your district. Three short questions, no account needed.

  3. 3

    We match and call

    We check our seller listings and the certified-used stock of brand dealers in your region, then call you, usually the same working day.

  4. 4

    Inspect before you pay

    Every listing we pass on has dated photos of the hour meter and the serial plate. Match the plate to the RC or invoice and use the inspection checklist on site.

What decides a used machine's price

  • Hours on the meter and the year of make
  • Service history and the last major repair
  • Papers: RC and insurance for wheeled machines, tax invoice for tracked ones, loan closure if it was financed
  • Condition of the working parts: bucket and teeth, hydraulics, tyres or undercarriage
  • Location, because transport to your site is on you

Our guides explain what to check for each machine type: how to buy used equipment step by step and which excavators hold their value.

Paying for a used machine

  • Banks and NBFCs finance used machines up to a certain age; the loan is smaller and the tenure shorter than for new. See used equipment loans and the lenders we list.
  • Ask for a sale agreement, the original invoice and, for wheeled machines, RTO transfer of the RC through the Parivahan portal.
  • Compare with the new price on the model page. When a used quote is close to a new one on EMI, the new machine may be the better buy. Our guide on new versus used walks through it.
  1. 1

    List it on your phone

    Mobile number and OTP, then the machine, its hours, papers, photos and your asking price. About five minutes. You can stop and continue later.

  2. 2

    We check it

    Our team reviews every listing and calls you to confirm the details. Nothing goes to a buyer unchecked.

  3. 3

    Buyers are matched

    Buyers asking for your model in your region are told about your machine. Your number is not shown; we bring the enquiry to you.

  4. 4

    You decide

    Negotiate and sell on your terms. Mark it sold, pause it or delete it from My listings any time.

Tick what you have. Nothing is sent anywhere; it is only a list for you.

What it costs and what we do

  • Listing is free. There is no fee to the seller for a sale.
  • Buyers see the machine, its photos and the asking price. Not your number.
  • You can delete your listing whenever you like. We keep a copy of the record for our audit trail, as our privacy policy explains.
  • DesiMachines connects buyers and sellers. It is not a party to the sale and does not hold money.

Common questions

How do I sell my used machine through DesiMachines?

List it free on your phone: mobile number and OTP, then the machine, its hours, papers, photos and your asking price. It takes about five minutes. Our team checks the listing and brings buyers' enquiries to you. Start the listing.

Can I browse all used machines for sale in one list?

Not yet. Enquiries go through the model page, which is where the checks, the price comparison and the guide for that machine live. A searchable used section will follow once there are enough checked listings to be worth filtering.

Are the machines inspected by DesiMachines?

We check the listing, the papers named on it and the dated photos of the hour meter and serial plate. We do not carry out a mechanical inspection. Inspect the machine yourself, or with a mechanic you trust, before paying.

Do you list dealer certified-used stock too?

Yes. When a brand dealer in your region holds certified-used machines of the model you asked for, we include them in the call-back. Certification terms are the dealer's, not ours.

How old a machine can be financed?

It depends on the lender, the machine type and its hours. As a rule the lender caps the age at delivery and the tenure so that the loan closes before the machine is too old. The finance page lists the lenders and their typical terms.

I am a seller. Who sees my details?

Only our team. Buyers see the machine, its photos and the asking price. When a buyer is serious we bring the enquiry to you and you decide whether to talk.

Can I list a machine that still has a loan on it?

Yes. Say so in the listing and name the lender. The buyer will need the lender's no-objection or a foreclosure letter before the transfer, so it is better known early.
