Serving sellers and buyers across North America, with an established global buyer network

Quigley Surplus Sales

The appraisal is not paperwork. It is the entire strategy.

Quigley Surplus Sales leads every engagement with a documented valuation — then chooses the disposition path the numbers actually support, whether that means a direct purchase, a managed sale, or a complete business exit.

Quigley Surplus Sales was built on a straightforward premise: the equipment transaction goes wrong most often when the valuation comes last — when the number is reverse-engineered from a deal that is already in motion, rather than being the foundation the deal is built on. We reversed that sequence deliberately. The appraisal desk and the sales desk answer to the same standard here, which means there is no incentive to inflate a valuation to win a listing or to shade a number toward a faster close. Sellers get an honest picture of what the market will pay and exactly why. Buyers get assets priced against documented evidence rather than seller optimism. Lenders and ownership groups get the written backup their advisors require. That discipline is not limited to one corner of the production floor — Quigley works across the complete range of metalworking and plastics processing machinery, from grinding and Swiss precision turning to EDM, injection, blow mold, extrusion, thermoforming, rotational mold, rubber and silicone, CNC, stamping, die cast, mold and tooling inventories, tool and die assets, and the automation and auxiliary equipment that connects everything else. The breadth is intentional: a credible appraisal-led advisory practice cannot tell a client that half the floor is outside its competence.

Every Quigley Surplus Sales engagement begins at the same place: a written, defensible valuation. Not an estimate scribbled on a napkin before the handshake, but a documented appraisal — orderly liquidation value, forced sale value, and fair market value — that can stand in front of a lender, a bankruptcy trustee, an acquiring company, or a seller who simply wants to know what is real before deciding what to do. That discipline covers the full breadth of what we handle: precision grinding cells, Swiss turning centers, EDM systems, injection molding presses, blow mold lines, extrusion and extruder configurations, thermoforming equipment, rotational mold machinery, rubber and silicone compounding and processing lines, CNC machining and turning assets, metal stamping operations, die cast equipment, mold and tooling inventories, tool and die shop assets, and the automation and auxiliary systems that tie production floors together. Once the valuation is on paper, the disposition path follows from it. When a seller's priority is speed and certainty, Quigley buys outright — committed capital, no contingencies, a closing timeline that matches the urgency of real manufacturing decisions. When a phased exit or maximum recovery is the goal, we structure and manage consignment programs, placing assets with qualified buyers across a North American network backed by an active global buyer reach. Auctions and structured liquidations enter the picture when a defined endpoint matters — plant closures, estate situations, and lender-directed dispositions all benefit from a managed event with a hard settlement date. On the acquisition side, we source and vet specific equipment for manufacturers who need a particular capability and cannot afford to wait for the right machine to surface on its own. And when the transaction extends beyond individual assets, Quigley manages complete business sales and turnkey facility exits. We handle contracts, real estate, and M&E as a single coordinated transaction — one point of accountability rather than three parties negotiating around each other.
