How EYI Provides A Platform To Facilitate Second Hand Sales

17 September 2024

At EYI, we understand the complexities of second-hand sales. Our expertise in the market, combined with our user-friendly platform, enables a yacht's captains, crew members and management to sell their pre-owned items quickly and transparently. Here's how we use our experience to simplify the process while ensuring that every critical detail is considered.

The Importance of Condition, Documentation, and Communication in Second-Hand Sales

When it comes to selling second-hand items, especially those tied to yachts, there are several factors that can significantly affect the transaction: Product Condition: Buyers expect detailed and honest information about the condition of the item being sold. Whether it’s a tender, equipment, or luxury goods from a yacht, the condition directly influences the value. We make sure sellers can easily provide this information through our platform, with clear instructions on how to describe and photograph the item to highlight its true state.

Documentation: One of the most critical elements in maximizing the resale value is having the proper documentation. The documents we aim to collect are: 

Original Invoice (VAT Compliance & Import)

Maintenance records (For Tenders, Jetskis etc.)

Registration papers (Certificate of Conformity)

At EYI, we guide our clients through the documentation process, ensuring all necessary paperwork is collected and presented to potential buyers. Clear communication, transparency and responsiveness are key to a smooth transaction.

Our solution depends on clear communication with potential buyers by providing prompt responses to inquiries, being upfront about any defects or maintenance needs, and providing clear details about shipping, re-registration requirements, or warranties.

Join us in supporting a greener, more sustainable future for the yachting world by sharing our solution with Captains, crew members and management companies in the industry.
