Question 1

What machinery can I submit?

Accepted Answer

Initially we focus on professional food processing, beverage and packaging machinery located in Europe.

Question 2

Does submitting commit me to selling?

Accepted Answer

No. You decide whether any offer is good enough.

Question 3

Where do I see my offers?

Accepted Answer

In your seller portal. After submitting a machine you request a sign-in link by email — no password — and the portal shows the review status, buyer questions and every offer as it arrives. Buyer identities stay hidden until you accept an offer.

Question 4

Will my company be publicly listed?

Accepted Answer

No. Opportunities can be shared privately with matched professional buyers.

Question 5

Who can make offers?

Accepted Answer

Verified professional machinery dealers, resellers and qualified industrial buyers.

Question 6

How quickly will I receive offers?

Accepted Answer

This depends on the equipment, but Kretsa is designed to create a focused bidding window rather than leaving machinery listed indefinitely.

Question 7

Does the buyer arrange collection?

Accepted Answer

Purchase offers can include collection timing and logistics conditions so you can compare the complete offer.

Question 8

How do buyers value a machine without seeing it?

Accepted Answer

Each machine is documented for remote assessment: a structured photo set, nameplate data, condition notes and a survey of access, route and dismantling. Buyers can also ask questions and request further evidence, such as video of the machine running, before they make an offer.

Question 9

Can buyers inspect the machine in person?

Accepted Answer

Yes, once they have submitted a written offer. A live video walkthrough is the usual first step; a physical visit is arranged only where the seller agrees to it.

Question 10

Do I have to allow site visits?

Accepted Answer

No. Nobody visits your site without your approval, and every viewing is arranged by Kretsa rather than directly between the parties.

Question 11

Is an offer binding before inspection?

Accepted Answer

A buyer may mark an offer as subject to inspection. In that case the price is confirmed or withdrawn after the viewing, which is stated to you when you compare offers.

Question 12

What does it cost?

Accepted Answer

Nothing. Submitting machinery, receiving offers and completing a sale is free for sellers — there is no listing fee and no success fee.

Question 13

How does Kretsa make money?

Accepted Answer

The buying side pays. Buyers pay a commission on the accepted offer amount, stated to them before they place an offer, and charged only when a purchase is concluded.
