From the seller's description. Not a guarantee of condition.
Market demand: Equipment in Missouri sell about 93% of the time, typically ~23 bids. Based on 291 completed sales over the last year.
A 1999 John Deere 488E four-wheel-drive forklift with an 8,000-pound capacity and 10,086 hours, a rough-terrain or lumber-yard machine. Lumber yards, construction contractors, and forklift dealers buy these, so it sells as-is or after light service. The listing says it needed a jump start during data collection, so test the charging system and confirm the powershift and mast functions under load.
Estimated flip margin and comp range available with Pro. Summary may occasionally contain inaccuracies; check the full description before bidding.
Private seller (not a government agency), listed on a platform we index for its fleet and equipment.
Condition: Used — sold as-is
