What is the FOB price of a used Komatsu 30-ton excavator?
FOB prices for used Komatsu 30-ton excavators typically range from USD 28,000 to USD 65,000, depending on model, year, hours, condition, and configuration. This is an indicative range only; the exact price is confirmed after inspection and specification review. ExcaYard sources, inspects, and ships pre-owned Komatsu machines worldwide from China.
What Determines the FOB Price of a Used Komatsu 30-Ton Excavator?
Several variables move the price up or down. The most important are model and generation, year of manufacture, verified working hours, undercarriage wear, engine and hydraulic condition, and whether the machine has been repainted. Attachments, bucket size, and any included spare parts also affect value. Because ExcaYard performs a 150-point pre-shipment inspection with photos and video, plus hours verification and paint-thickness checks, the final FOB price reflects the true condition of the unit rather than a generic listing.
| Price Factor | Impact on FOB Price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Model and generation | Higher for newer, popular models | PC300, PC350, PC360, etc. |
| Year of manufacture | Newer years command higher prices | Typically 2010–2020 |
| Verified working hours | Lower hours = higher price | Hours verified during inspection |
| Undercarriage condition | Worn undercarriage reduces price | Checked in 150-point inspection |
| Paint and body condition | Repainted or damaged units lower | Paint-thickness checks performed |
| Attachments and extras | Breaker, quick coupler add value | Confirm before quotation |
Machine Condition and the 150-Point Inspection
Every used Komatsu excavator offered by ExcaYard undergoes a 150-point pre-shipment inspection. This covers engine, hydraulics, undercarriage, electrical systems, cab, safety devices, and structural integrity. The inspection includes photos and video documentation, hours verification, and paint-thickness checks to detect repainting or hidden repairs. Buyers receive a detailed report before shipment, so the FOB price is tied to a known condition. If you want to understand how repainting affects value, see do you check for repainting?
Documents and Certifications for Export
ExcaYard handles export certifications required by destination countries. These include SONCAP for Nigeria, SABER for Saudi Arabia, PVoC for Kenya, Tanzania, and Ghana, GSA for Ghana, and KEBS where applicable. Standard documentation includes commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and certificate of origin. Certificates are not invented or guaranteed for every unit; they are arranged according to the importing country’s regulations and the machine’s eligibility. Buyers should confirm certification requirements early, as they can affect lead time and total landed cost.
Payment Terms: T/T or L/C
ExcaYard accepts T/T USD wire, L/C through Bank of China, and Wise. T/T is common for smaller transactions and deposits, while L/C is often used for larger orders or when buyer and seller want bank-backed security. Payment terms are agreed before shipment. Because FOB prices are indicative until inspection is complete, the final invoice reflects the confirmed machine and any certification or documentation fees.
Shipping Methods and Lead Time
Shipping can be arranged FOB or CIF. For a 30-ton excavator, RoRo, container, or flat-rack are all possible, depending on the machine’s dimensions and the route. Default ports are Shanghai, Ningbo, Qingdao, and Tianjin. Typical CIF lead time is 28–45 days port-to-port, though this can vary by destination and vessel schedule.
