Product Condition Policy
Understanding the condition, presentation, specifications and warranty considerations of new and used agricultural equipment before purchase.
New Equipment
New equipment is represented as new by the applicable manufacturer, supplier or seller. New equipment may be supplied with manufacturer documentation, accessories or warranty coverage where applicable. Warranty terms, specifications, included equipment, accessories and availability may vary by product.
Used Equipment
Used equipment has previously been operated or otherwise used and may show signs of previous use. This can include normal cosmetic wear, scratches, dents, fading, surface marks, rust, paint wear or other indications of prior operation. The condition of each used unit may vary.
1. Purpose of This Policy
This Product Condition Policy explains how Belton Ag Equipment describes new and used equipment and provides general guidance for customers evaluating equipment before purchase.
Because agricultural equipment can differ significantly in age, operating history, configuration, maintenance history and condition, customers should consider the specific equipment listing and obtain clarification about any characteristic that is particularly important to their intended use.
2. New Equipment
New equipment is generally equipment represented as new by the applicable manufacturer, supplier or seller. New equipment may be supplied with manufacturer documentation, manuals, accessories or other materials, depending on the particular equipment and its configuration.
Being described as new does not necessarily mean that every item, accessory, specification or feature is identical across different models or configurations. Customers should review the specific listing and confirm important details before purchase.
Manufacturer warranty coverage, where applicable, is governed by the applicable manufacturer's warranty terms. Additional information is available in our Warranty Policy.
3. Used Equipment
Used equipment may have previously been operated in agricultural, commercial, residential or other environments. Its condition can vary according to age, operating hours, previous use, maintenance, storage, environment and other factors.
Used equipment may display cosmetic or functional characteristics associated with previous ownership or operation. Customers should not assume that used equipment will have the same condition, appearance or remaining warranty coverage as new equipment.
Depending on the particular unit, used equipment may show signs such as:
- Scratches, dents or paint wear.
- Fading or weather-related cosmetic changes.
- Surface marks or other normal signs of use.
- Wear associated with previous operation.
- Replacement or aftermarket components where applicable.
- Other characteristics associated with age or previous use.
4. Equipment Condition Can Vary
No two used machines are necessarily identical. Two units of the same model may have different operating histories, maintenance records, cosmetic condition, accessories, modifications or levels of wear.
Customers should therefore evaluate the condition of the specific equipment being offered rather than relying solely on the general characteristics of a particular make or model.
5. Product Descriptions
We make reasonable efforts to provide useful and accurate product descriptions. However, product descriptions, specifications, images, equipment availability and other listing information may contain errors, omissions or information that changes over time.
Information may originate from manufacturers, suppliers, previous owners, inspection information, internal records or other sources. Where a particular specification or characteristic is essential to a purchase, customers should contact us for confirmation before completing the purchase.
6. Equipment Images and Photographs
Images may show the actual equipment being offered or may be representative of a particular product, model or configuration. Customers should not assume that every image necessarily represents the exact condition, accessories, attachments or configuration of the unit being purchased.
Equipment may also appear different in photographs because of lighting, photography conditions, image processing, display settings or the age of the photograph.
If it is important to know whether an image represents the exact unit being offered, customers should contact Belton Ag Equipment before purchasing.
7. Specifications and Measurements
Product specifications may include dimensions, capacity, weight, engine or motor information, operating specifications, attachment compatibility and other technical information.
Specifications may be provided by manufacturers, suppliers or other sources and may change between model years, configurations or individual units.
Customers should independently confirm any measurement, capacity, compatibility requirement or technical specification that is essential to their intended application.
8. Attachments, Accessories and Included Items
Equipment may be offered with attachments, implements, accessories, components or other items depending on the specific listing.
Customers should confirm which items are included with a particular purchase before completing the transaction, particularly where an attachment or accessory is important to the intended use of the equipment.
If an item shown in a photograph is not specifically identified as included, customers should contact us for clarification before purchasing.
9. Equipment Inspection
Customers are encouraged to ask questions and request additional information before completing a purchase when necessary. Where inspection or additional clarification is important to the purchase decision, customers should raise those questions before placing an order.
For used equipment, customers may wish to consider matters such as visible condition, operating history, maintenance information, hours of use, attachments, modifications and other characteristics relevant to the intended application.
10. Condition and Warranty Are Separate
Product condition and warranty coverage are separate considerations. Equipment may be in good working condition while having visible signs of previous use, and warranty coverage may vary independently from the equipment's cosmetic or operational condition.
Used equipment may have remaining manufacturer warranty coverage, limited applicable coverage or no remaining warranty, depending on the particular equipment and applicable warranty terms.
For more information, please review the Warranty Policy.
