Alternative Seller Services
Traditional options for recovering value are through liquidation services with a wide breadth of product lines. These are distressed sales through auctions.
Auctions are time-boxed and force a prospective buyer to hedge future demand, significantly increasing risk and lowering asset valuation.
This section outlines our purchase experience through distressed sales.
Our recent auction purchase history above, all of which the seller is an operator.

Commercial Cycles
We define commercial cycles as the average time it takes to execute a sale from the first engagement with a prospective customer.
Typically, the higher the alloy or the more unique the specification, the more time it takes to engineer items into end-user applications. 13 Chrome by nature is more commoditized and tends to turn faster if it is in standardized sizes with acceptable threads. In contrast, duplex, super duplex, and nickel can take longer.
External Demand
7" 35# 25CRW-125 Vam Top HT R2
25CRW is the most commonly used super duplex for sea water applications. The majority of consumption in 7" 25CRW is in 32# due to its 6" drift for completion equipment.
