Used Stoelting F-131 Countertop Frozen Yogurt Machines – Save $23k

March 15th, 2013 by Neil Williams

TurnKey Parlor just bought equipment that was worth $59k about 2 years ago. You get it for $35,900 with shipping included. Package deal will not be broken up. Pieces will not be sold separately. Seller opened shop 2 years ago for his wife to run. Store was doing well, relationship wasn’t. End result? Had to close and sell it off. Equipment has seen very little use, as store was seasonal and only open 6 months a year. Key equipment: Four Stoelting F-131 counter-top machines, 2 drop in topping bar coolers, 2 sets of sneeze-guards, 2 sets of scale/printer. Original invoices and specs sheets are below. NOTE 1): Contrary to what other people selling used equipment will tell you, manufacturer warranties on yogurt machines DO NOT transfer. All equipment is sold and accepted “AS-IS”, with no warranties, express or implied. This equipment is in great condition, so this isn’t really a big deal, but I like to put everything out there when I sell used equipment. The machines will be fully insured against shipping damage, but only if you report the damage when you receive them. Meaning, if its cosmetic damage, you accept it and write damaged on the unit and we will file a cosmetic damage claim – and we will refund a small portion for cosmetic damage (dent or scratch). If its major damage, you have the right to refuse the damaged machine. You can’t accept the machines, and then later claim damage, so be aware of that. You will have 14 days from the day you receive the machines to report any problems. If you report an issue with the equipment within the 14 days, we will pay for a tech to come out and service it and pay for any parts. In other words, if anything is wrong with the equipment, and you report it within 14 days, we will fix it. After that, you are on your own. NOTE 2: We do not provide training or support or installation of Stoelting machines. You will want to contact your local Stoelting company and ask them what the cost is for them to come out and train you on the machines. This is an important investment. Typically, it runs around $500. If you have an existing shop, and already understand the machines, then fine – you can get away without the training. But if you are new to this type of machinery, you will want to make that investment. WARNING: MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN INSTALL THE MACHINES! We are not responsible for the machines after you receive them – so make sure your electrician reads the spec sheet carefully to determine the electrical needs. NOTE 3: I don’t mean to sound harsh, but because this is a very “hot” deal so we need to put certain rules in place. First rule is the prices ARE FIRM – not negotiable. Second: Payments must be by wire tranfer only. Third: If you want it, you need to commit. This means: if you can’t do the wire transfer immediately, you need to put down a $1,500 non-refundable, non-disputable credit card deposit in order to hold the equipment. We will then expect you to wire the balance the next working day. It needs to be this way because if you’ve been following our deals for a while now, you know the don’t last more than a day most of the time. We cannot hold the equipment – once you’ve ordered it, you have to be able to receive it in approximately 2 weeks. See a breakdown of the equipment, and what they paid for it.
