GAM Online
GAM Online is the sales platform of GAM, a Spanish machinery rental group, and the distinction matters for a buyer: this is a rental company disposing of its own fleet, not an auction house selling for third parties. The auction (subasta) is one channel among several — the site also sells used machinery and new machinery at fixed prices and stocks spare parts. Stock comes off rental, which usually means documented service history, and the operator sells with a stated guarantee and support, which almost no insolvency auction does.
What you can buy
- Access platforms (elevación): the group's core — articulated, scissor, telescopic, single-person, truck-mounted and tracked platforms.
- Materials handling (manutención): forklifts, pallet trucks, stackers and tow tractors.
- Site machinery and equipment from the rental fleet.
- Spare parts for the same machines.
How the bidding works
The auction section runs alongside the fixed-price catalogue, so check which you are looking at — the price shown on a used-machinery listing is a price, not a starting bid. The group publishes a downloadable used-machinery catalogue and operates across Spain, Portugal, Morocco, Chile, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, the Dominican Republic and Peru, so a listing you find may sit outside Europe.
What to check before you bid
Ex-rental machinery is the useful end of this market — maintained on a schedule, with hours that mean something — but confirm what the stated guarantee actually covers and for how long, because that is the main reason to pay more here than at a liquidation sale. Check which country a unit is in before bidding: the multi-market site mixes them. For access platforms, verify the inspection and certification status, since a platform out of certification cannot legally be put to work until it is re-tested.
