Ritchie Bros auctioneers – Rocky Mountain and Canadian B.C. regional events attracted 17,500+ online bidders

VANCOUVER, BC- Ritchie Bros. is building bigger and better events with its regional auction format, bringing together more consignors and buyers to provide more selection and increased competition. Last week, the company held regional auctions on both sides of the border, with US$65+ million of equipment sold in its U.S. Rocky Mountain Event and US$27+ million (CA$35+ million) sold in the Canadian B.C. Regional Event—both of which were new regional records.

“Consignors love these big events because they attract more bidders and the increased competition results in more money in their pockets at the end of the auction,” said Chad Apland, Regional Sales Manager (Denver), Ritchie Bros. “Our Rocky Mountain event last week featured 5,700+ items from 800+ consignors stored across eight locations, with all items selling to online bidders around the world. Low-hour construction equipment was in especially high demand, resulting in some phenomenal prices, including a 2011 Cat 988H wheel loader that sold for US$515,000!”

The May 25 – 26 Rocky Mountain Event attracted 11,000+ bidders from 54 countries, with approximately 94% of the equipment sold to U.S. buyers, including 20% sold to Colorado, 11% to Utah, and 7% to Texas. The remaining 6% was sold to international buyers from as far away as Honduras, India, and Taiwan.

Meanwhile, up north, Ritchie Bros. was selling 2,100+ items for approximately 500 consignors in its B.C. Regional Event, with equipment stored at three locations across the province. The May 24 – 25 auction was B.C.’s biggest ever in terms of gross transaction value and attracted 6,500+ bidders from 34 countries. 

“Our Chilliwack yard usually fills up quick, so it’s great that we could add hundreds of additional items from elsewhere in B.C. and store them at yards in Prince George and Kamloops,” said Pat Elliott, Regional Sales Manager (Chilliwack), Ritchie Bros. “We built the auction around a great package of forestry equipment and achieved excellent results on the late-model gear. Good quality, low-hour equipment continues to bring big money, so I encourage interested sellers to contact us to take advantage today.”

Approximately 94% of the equipment sold in the B.C. Regional Event was sold to Canadians, including 71% sold to B.C. buyers. The remaining 6% was sold to international buyers from as far away as Guatemala, Egypt, and Thailand.Top 5 Sellers – Rocky Mountain Regional Event – May 25 – 26, 2022
