What Determines the FOB Price of a Used Sany Excavator?
FOB (Free On Board) price covers the machine's cost, loading onto the vessel at the Chinese port, and export clearance. Several factors influence the final figure:
- Model and size: Larger, newer models command higher prices. For example, a 20-ton class Sany SY215 typically costs more than a 7-ton SY75.
- Year of manufacture and hours: Lower hours and newer years increase value. ExcaYard verifies hours and performs paint-thickness checks to confirm authenticity.
- Condition: Our 150-point inspection assesses engine, hydraulics, undercarriage, and structural integrity. Machines needing repairs are priced lower.
- Market demand: Prices fluctuate with global demand and availability. Popular models may carry a premium.
- Attachments and options: Breakers, quick couplers, or additional buckets can raise the price.
Because every machine is unique, we provide a tailored FOB quote after inspection. The table below shows indicative FOB price ranges for common Sany models, typically based on average condition and mid-range hours.

|---|---|---|---|
| Sany SY75 | 7.5 tons | 2015–2019 | 25,000 – 35,000 |
| Sany SY135 | 13.5 tons | 2016–2020 | 35,000 – 48,000 |

Condition and the 150-Point Inspection
Every used Sany excavator we export undergoes a rigorous 150-point pre-shipment inspection. This covers engine performance, hydraulic system, undercarriage wear, electrical components, and structural integrity. We provide detailed photos and video, verify working hours, and use paint-thickness gauges to detect prior repairs or repainting. This transparency ensures you know exactly what you are buying and helps justify the FOB price.
Documents and Certifications
We handle all necessary export documentation, including commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and certificate of origin. For destination-specific requirements, we arrange certifications such as SONCAP (Nigeria), SABER (Saudi Arabia), PVoC (Kenya/Tanzania/Ghana), GSA (Ghana), and KEBS. These ensure smooth customs clearance and compliance with local regulations.
Payment Terms
We accept T/T USD wire transfers, L/C through Bank of China, and Wise. Typically, a deposit is required to initiate the order, with the balance settled before shipment. We provide clear payment instructions and receipts for every transaction.
Shipping Methods and Lead Time
We offer FOB or CIF terms. For FOB, you arrange shipping; for CIF, we handle it. We ship via RoRo, container, or flat-rack, depending on machine size and destination. Default ports are Shanghai, Ningbo, Qingdao, and Tianjin. Typical CIF lead time is 28–45 days port-to-port. We serve Africa, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Latin America, and CIS countries.
