Simple for sellers. Safe for buyers.
Every enquiry, viewing, payment and collection goes through Second Spring, so neither side has to take a stranger on trust.
- 01
Tell us what you have
Fill in the seller form with equipment type, make, model, age, condition and accessories. We'll ask for photos and service history when we reply.
- 02
Tell us the minimum you want per item
That's what you're guaranteed if it sells, and our fee comes only from what we achieve above it. Your minimum is private and never shown to buyers.
- 03
We do the selling
We price, advertise, answer questions and arrange viewings. You don't deal with buyers.
- 04
The buyer pays us, then collects
We agree a collection window with you. The buyer checks the equipment at handover.
- 05
You get paid
We pay you within 24 hours of handover.
No listing fee and no upfront costs. If it doesn't sell, you pay nothing.
- 01
Tell us what you need
Use the enquiry form: how many items, which equipment types, which makes, your budget and timing.
- 02
View first
In person or by video call, arranged through us.
- 03
Pay a deposit to hold it, then the balance before collection
You get written terms before any money moves.
- 04
Collect and inspect
Check everything at handover. You check it with the seller and both sign a short handover note before it leaves.
- 05
The seller is paid after handover
If something isn't as described, we put it right or refund you.
The details that matter.
Who you deal with
You deal with the same person at Second Spring from first question to collection. Buyers and sellers do not need to negotiate with each other, and we don't put buyers in touch with the seller before the sale completes. We pass your questions on, send back the answers, and arrange viewings.
If something isn't as described
Tell us within 48 hours of collection, with photos. We'll agree a fix: a partial refund, missing parts, or a full refund once it's returned.
Collection and delivery
Buyers collect from where the equipment is, in a collection window we agree with the seller. Most items are collection only, and we can quote for specialist delivery if you need it.
Checking it's really us
We only ever send bank details from hello@2ndspring.co.uk. If anyone gives you different details, don't pay, and email us to check.
Where we work
London and the South East first. If you're further afield, get in touch anyway and we'll tell you honestly whether we can help.
