Pics Results- Ft Scott,KS Consignment Auction

On Friday I attended the Johnson fall consignment auction held just east of Ft Scott,KS..It was a nice mostly sunny day with temps in the mid 60's...The amount of items consigned was way down from previous auctions.

The 8820 Titan II combine received no bids at $3,000...The motor had 900 hours on a rebuild..I'll bet those 73 inch Terra Rice tires would be pretty expensive.

Thank you for taking time to post pictures and prices.

thank you for pics and prices, always nice to see your posts.

Thanks, great pictures

Thank you for the posts.

know Hay trucking costs from southern central indiana ? .

I would love to sell my hay for even half what those bales sold for. And Id be happy to pay what the JD combine and old articulated tractor sold for. Probably cost me 5 grand each just to truck them home

x2!!

For giggles I looked up what some terra tires were selling for--You should have drove that ol 8820 home!!!

Off breed--$3093--

I'm amazed at the low cost of used combines. I understand they have limited uses, and get beat up pretty good in normal use, but there has to be something that can be done with them or something they can be good for after they are no longer good for harvesting. Hasn't anybody come up with a good repurposing idea for one besides as a snow blower? Seems like the drivetrain would be worth the price they are asking. What am I missing? Hell, for $3k, that would be an awesome toy to drive around my little farm.

I am really surprised on that 8640 JD. I would love to have a tractor that size, even though I have no use for one.

Best you can do with that nice 8820 is harvest with it.
Our cobsumerism society needs us to have new things. What if we changed to a society and economy baded on fixing and improving what we already have, from roads, old city houses, farm machinery, etc...

i wish i would have seen that sale bill. dang!
