Not sure if there's an off the shelf resource but I've worked with companies like Hilco and Great American to appraise equipment like this, in the context of appraising collateral for secured loans. You can provide them a PP&E run and they can tell you replacement value, orderly liquidation value, etc.

What industry? Where is the equipment? I worked on a project a few months ago looking at buying old manufacturing equipment. You can email me at [redacted]

Thanks Neil and Canaan. I have a backup plan of offering a sales rep for a major eqpt mfg who has appraisal authority a fee to price out a couple of machines. Just thought it would be nice to find all that myself at a single source. Again many thanks[redacted]Stay Safe
