Excess Electronics Evaluation Process at REVO.tech B2B Global Electronics Marketplace

Electronics Excess sellers looking to sell their excess inventory aspire to recoup amounts that closely match the initial purchase price of their stock. At REVO.tech, our commitment is to ensure you receive optimal value for your excess electronics inventory. Understanding the process can help you maximize your returns. Here is transparency into how we evaluate your submissions:

1. Product Evaluation

•  Condition: We assess items as New, New Pulls, Refurbished, or Pulls.
•  Packaging: Preference for original sealed packaging, though open original or generic packaging is also considered.
•  Quality Grade: We look for A Grade electronics, free of any functional defects.
•  Date code: The production year matters for assessing relevancy and EOL Obsolescence.
•  Storage Conditions: Climate-controlled storage is ideal to prevent metallic oxidation (rust).

2. Market Analysis

• Market Saturation: We examine if the market is already flooded with the same part number.
• Global Market Conditions: Expansion or contraction in manufacturing sector impacts demand of electronics by OEM, CM, EMS, Repair Centers, Integrators and Electronics Distributors.
• Demand History: Past popularity and usage of the part number vs. recent demand.
• Quantity Demand: Matching your excess quantity with historical demand patterns. If your excess is a large quantity, but buyers usually use small quantities, it would lower the value of the excess. The same applies in reverse: if your excess is small quantity, but buyers usually buy large quantities, then your excess may be worth less to them.
• Geographical Considerations: The location of the excess electronics versus location of the buyer influences costs (transport and duties).
• Supply Chain Considerations: Selling your Excess electronics directly to another end-user will provide you with the greatest return on your surplus. However, in most situations, your Excess will need to travel between 1-3 parties within the supply chain before it reaches a new home. The more parties needed to move your Excess, the lower the return would be, as all parties must be financially incentivized to help move the Excess through the supply chain. Our global network that we’ve grown over a decade helps to minimize the number of parties required to move your stock to a new home.

3. Logistical Details

• Non-factory sealed items require inspection at our facilities, or a 3^rd party testing house, before a payment is issued. Partial advance payment may be available depending on the condition of the stock and reputation of your company.
• Samples or sample boxes may be required by our company before a full payment is made.
• Your Payment Flexibility Level: the more flexible you are on payment requirements, the more sellable your Excess stock becomes. Full 100% advance payment requirement to buy your Excess is more challenging to work with than Excess that you ship to us and we pay 100% after full inspection of your goods. Payments on Excess electronics that are sent to us are paid out approximately within 3 to 7 business days after receipt.

4. Communication Efficiency

• Speed at which information that we request (like date codes, product images, certificates of conformance and approval of offers) is provided by you, will greatly affect the likelihood of your Excess selling successfully. We kindly ask that all replies are made within 1-2 business days.

Excess electronics are normally sold for anywhere from 35% to 90% below their original cost, depending on all of the above factors. By aligning your inventory with our evaluation criteria, you can enhance the value of your excess stock.
