SUMMARY
Resellers' Initiative for Increased Information Flow Boosts Market Growth
The excessive involvement of brokers in the buying and selling process is
creating information dysfunction, which is the lack of information regarding
the source and demand for used test equipment. Sellers and buyers are,
therefore, uncertain if they are being offered the most competitive rates in
the market. This lack of confidence in the middlemen who are making undue
profits is affecting market growth. In order to sustain revenues, it is
essential for participants to enforce greater transparency and raise
credibility standards in the used test equipment market.
This Frost & Sullivan research offers insights into the North American used
test and measurement equipment market for electronic counters, oscilloscopes,
network analyzers, signal generators, spectrum analyzers, power meters, and
multimeters. In addition to identifying trends, restraints, and drivers, the
study also offers competitive analysis and revenue forecasts. Forecasts are
also included that help participants to
capitalize on growth opportunities. Pricing Benchmarks Key to Overcoming
End-User Apprehensions
The lack of transparency in the used test equipment market has forced
resellers to form pricing benchmarks as part of a buyer protection program.
This move relieves dysfunctional practices involved in a transaction and
prevents middlemen from making excessive profits.
The pricing benchmark is based on a scientific algorithm that takes into
account factors such as condition of the test equipment, year of manufacture,
brand, accessories provided with the instrument, and the usage criteria. This
is then compared to the relevant historical set of data and a price band for
that equipment is provided to the user. "Such a pricing benchmark enhances
end-user decisions by providing relevant information on appropriate
buying/selling rates and is expected to boost market growth in the long run,"
says the analyst of this research.
Efforts to Promote Organized Trade Transactions to Boost Revenue Growth
Re-sellers are taking the initiative to enhance transparency and create a more
organized system to drive growth in the used test equipment market. There has
been an attempt to foster trust among participants by providing calibration
certificates, guarantees, warranties, price benchmarks, buyer protection
programs, and post sales backup for the used test equipment based on its
condition, and variety.
The entry of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) in the used test
equipment market is expected to increase credibility and accountability. "OEMs
strive toward providing similar warranty terms and clauses for the used test
equipment as they do for the new devices," explains the analyst. "Moreover,
the buyer protection programs provided by the resellers and OEMs, which
guarantee the quality of the used test equipment, have a positive impact on
market growth."
