I would say an online auction, where the percentage fee doesn't kill the profit.
Such as Del Peterson, who only charge seller 5% and buyer 5% so no one gets hammered.
DPA is out of Fremont, Nebraska
I'd say it's better because buyers can view and bid on equipment for an extended period of time.
Check out the DPA website to better understand what I'm talking about.

I do an antique tractor show every year with one of my bee clubs and those engines are on display including one running a big churn for the ice cream vendor. Very popular among collectors.

An ice cream vendor at our state fair uses the hit and miss engines to power their churns. They have about a half dozen of them running. They make good ice cream and stay busy.

Somebody will want those, hopefully lots of buyers find that sale and bid against one another
