GE Capital Americas, a recognized industry leader in equipment leasing, is also a direct reseller of off-lease and repossessed copiers and office imaging equipment. GEC is in the unique position to be able to offer an extensive array of every major make and model of equipment coming off lease or that has been repossessed. The GEC group of Remarketing Sales Specialists can connect you with an enormous variety of makes, models and configurations, with a variety of condition and meter count. Dealing directly with GEC streamlines the product selection and ordering process to ensure you get the exact equipment you need for your specific application.

Bright Days Ahead
GEC’s unique ‘Line of Sight’ into their portfolio allows the Remarketing Team to have knowledge of prime equipment that will be coming off lease in the near future. Buyers dealing directly with the GEC Remarketing Sales Group can have first choice on equipment that will come off lease. Buyers can plan for their future needs: establishing availability and pricing for future rentals, next month’s sales projections or needed MPS replacement equipment.

Knowledge of the soon-to-be available equipment is a great benefit for MPS dealers who need to consolidate similar makes and models within a client’s location to ease supply inventory and technical service needs. GEC can provide a wide range of many makes and models at pre-arranged pricing to enable the dealer to calculate realistic MPS pricing and acquire aftermarket replacement equipment.

Potential buyers can have access to immediate or future availability of competitively priced off-lease or repossessed equipment throughout the United States. This includes equipment that can be purchased individually, in palletized lots or a full container sized load for shipping internationally by export buyers. GEC has conveniently located regional warehousing facilities throughout the US, including south Florida and the East and West coasts, allowing for convenient and cost effective overseas shipping by export buyers.

Cut to the Chase
Buying directly from GEC enables the dealer, exporter, future user, or other buyer to deal directly with the owner of the equipment. There is no additional cost for a middleman/broker. There is no need to waste time waiting for a decision on a price offering or time delay for approval of a multi-machine purchase. The GEC Remarketing Sales Reps are equipment matchmakers who understand how to fulfill the unique needs of each of their buyers. Your dedicated GEC Remarketing Sales Rep can handle the entire process. One call does it all.

GEC provides a 24/7 online catalog listing at www.GEasset.com/copiers of their off-lease copiers and office imaging equipment inventory and welcomes inquiries for equipment not listed. The list is segmented by geographical pick-up locations of the equipment. The online catalog provides real-time inventory arranged alphabetically by the manufacturer, make and model. Also included for each piece of equipment offered are the serial numbers, meter count, configuration, and internal and external equipment conditions. Local buyers are welcome to inspect the serialized equipment prior to final purchase and pick-up.

GEC’s regional inventory warehouses are strategically located throughout the continental USA. This enables buyers to save time and freight cost as well as making it convenient for local buyers to be able to inspect their purchases before will-call pick-up or to arrange local freight or containerized shipping by export buyers. Being able to partner with a single contact, GEC – the legal owner of the equipment, eliminates the additional time and cost involved when dealing with a broker who only represents and warehouses a few manufacturers’ equipment. Purchasing directly from GEC eliminates the need to wait for the broker to contact and negotiate with the OEM’s representative to hopefully attain the buyer’s desired terms.

Chris Chirichella continues, “In addition to the GEC web-based off-lease copier and office imaging equipment inventory listings, our unique ‘Line of Sight’ ability enables us to anticipate our portfolio’s end-of-term equipment returns. This allows our Remarketing Sales Team to be able to work with our buyers, on a one-on-one basis, to confirm the future access to equipment that will be available for purchase.”

GEC also has an established Dealer Repurchase Program that allows the dealers who originated the lease with GEC the opportunity to purchase the off-lease equipment prior to its return. The servicing dealer has the ability to pre-arrange the purchase of the equipment, enabling them to take immediate possession of the equipment at lease end. This provides the servicing dealer with additional incentive to invest in superior service and timely parts replacement because the equipment will be owned by them at the termination of the lease.

The GEC Remarketing Sales Team understands the necessity for reliable current information provided by industry experts who know and understand the buyer’s business needs. The ability to quickly and efficiently source the appropriate off-lease and repossessed equipment in a structured, easy-to-navigate purchasing procedure with GEC, a trusted icon of equipment leasing and financing, helps to maximize the recurring opportunities of purchasing used equipment. Additionally the reuse of off-lease and repossessed equipment is part of GEC’s commitment to imagine and build innovative solutions to today’s environmental challenges while driving economic growth.
