How buying on Prime Marketplace works

  • Verified dealers

    Every dealer on Prime Marketplace completes identity and business verification and commits to listing, photo, and condition-grading standards before they can sell here.

  • Fair Market Index

    Each listing is benchmarked against comparable size and condition units. The detail page shows where that container sits in the range so you can see whether the ask is fair before you buy.

  • Pay on delivery

    You confirm the order online and pay the dealer (typically by check) when the container is on your site. No card charge upfront. If the unit is not delivered, you owe nothing.

  • Scam Shield

    Dealers photograph the actual unit before it ships. If the delivered container does not match the listed grade or those photos, refuse it on delivery and you pay nothing.
