How to Vet Sellers for Used Pallet Racks for Sale: Local and Nationwide
Jim found what he thought was a steal on eBay for business. The exact make and model of the pallet racking he was using in his fulfillment center. The price was right, the pictures looked great, and his team was familiar with this type of rack, so it would be easy to integrate.
Except it wasn’t.
When the racks arrived, they were missing parts. There was corrosion on the back side—the part not shown in the pictures—and it looked like some of the uprights were bent or had small cracks.
Worse yet, when he went to contact the seller, they had disappeared from the platform.
Sadly, this happens. While you may think you’re getting a real deal, you may be setting yourself up for a real headache. You need to inspect any used pallet racking for sale carefully and that includes the seller you’re buying from, whether you’re buying locally or from a national seller.

Either way, however, it’s key to vet the seller.
Vetting Sellers of Used Pallet Racks for Sale
You’ll want to research the seller’s online presence. Look for reviews on platforms like Google or industry-specific directories. Consistent positive feedback and testimonials generally indicate reliability. If you see complaints, ask about them.
Reputable sellers should be able to provide references from past customers. Call the references and ask about their experience with the seller and any issues that came up before or after the sale.
If possible, you’ll want to visit the seller’s facility. Inspect the inventory, make sure everything lines up with the parts list, and verify the condition of the used pallet racking for sale. If you can’t travel yourself, get an expert evaluation before you close the deal.
