What sellers ask
Only 9% of for-sale items state a price at all — the Egyptian convention is “سعر تجاري”: price on the phone. Where a price is stated, this is the spread after removing reposts and non-Egyptian or foreign-currency listings.
265 machines are quoted in US dollars, at a median of $64,000; the brands quoted in dollars most often are XCMG, Hyundai, Shantui, and JCB.
Prices are what sellers ask, not what machines sell for, and are extracted automatically from free text — a guide, not a valuation.
Asking price by machine class
Median and quartiles in EGP. The spread is wide on purpose: a 1995 loader and a 2020 loader are the same row.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wheel loaders | 320K | 680K | 1.15M | 303 |

Where the median went
The median priced listing, month by month. The last reading is EGP 640K — a level, not a valuation, and it moves with what is being listed as much as with what machines are worth.

Questions this page answers
How much does a used wheel loader cost in Egypt?
The median asking price is EGP 680K, and the middle half of ads sit between EGP 320K and EGP 1.15M. Age drives the spread more than anything else: 1990s CAT loaders anchor the bottom, late imports the top.
Why do so few ads show a price?
Only 9% of for-sale ads state one. The Egyptian convention is «سعر تجاري» — the price is discussed on the phone — so a stated price is already a self-selected sample of sellers who wanted to advertise it.
Are these prices what machines actually sell for?
No. They are what sellers ask before negotiation, extracted from free text. Treat them as the opening position on a machine you have not yet inspected.
Why are some machines priced in dollars?
265 machines are quoted in dollars, at a median of $64,000, the most frequent brands being XCMG, Hyundai, Shantui, and JCB. They are typically imports, priced in the currency they were bought in, and they are excluded from the EGP ranges.
Can I use this as a valuation?
No. A valuation needs the specific machine, its hours, its service history and an inspection. This page tells you whether the number in front of you is inside the market or outside it.

Method
- Only Egyptian listings priced in EGP are used. Foreign-currency and non-Egyptian ads are excluded, not converted.
- Listings are de-duplicated by seller, machine and price, so one machine reposted ten times counts once. 726 listings survived that cleaning.
- Figures below 50,000 EGP or above 40,000,000 EGP are dropped as parts, deposits or typing errors.
- A class is published only with at least 15 priced listings behind it, and a model only with 6 and a consistent spread.
