International buyers from as far away as India, Thailand, and the United Arab Emirates purchased eight percent of the equipment.
"We continue to see optimism from contractors with promises of infrastructure spending coming from the government, resulting in good, solid pricing on construction equipment this week," said Dolan Aucoin, Sales Director, Ritchie Bros. "We also saw steady pricing for transportation equipment, particularly for trailers. I'd like to thank all our buyers and sellers this week—see you again in Houston on June 21 and 22."

"A lot of the equipment we sold is unique. Ritchie Bros. is worldwide so I knew they could handle it and find the right buyers. With a company as big as Ritchie Bros., I can hardly understand how they have such personal relationships with their customers, but they manage to do it."
