How Long Does It Take
In Exapro, we like numbers, data, and statistics. Following the selling trends in 2016, we discovered that on average machines were sold on Exapro after 8 months since being published in the catalog. However, on a monthly basis we have examples of successful deals made only within 2-3 months or even less. For sellers, this fact means only one thing: do not expect an immediate deal, yet put some effort in providing a good description of your product and leave the rest to Exapro!
