Bid-On-Equipment

In 1998, after a decade in machinery sales, Larry Lebedun struck out on his own to create Legend Machines, Inc.

Legend Machines primary focus was on the direct sale of Used Packaging and Processing machinery. In very short order, Larry called on David Berman, whom he worked with previously to join the company and together they successfully grew their own niche in Used Equipment sales. Recognizing the potential of Internet sales in expanding their customer base, they decided to develop a marketplace that would allow other dealers to list their Packaging and Processing Machinery.

From that idea, Bid-On-Equipment.com was launched in 2001 in Hampshire, Illinois. Core concepts to this new venture were that the Item Listings and Buyer inquiries would be free of charge and as Larry learned from his father’s successful businesses, Excellent Customer Service was essential.
