No Rusty...there were a lot of people there...but they were after the shiny utility stuff. Saw a well used Ford 3000 go for 5500, a Massey 135 went for almost 6000. They even had an old Long 460 with a loader go for 4400. The older tricycle tractors were not bid on at all. A JD G went for junk price. It was not pretty, but only 2 guys bid on it and it went for 900, a really nice IH 400 gas went for 500. It was really nice. I had spent my allotment or I would have brought it back too.
My friend got a 560D for 1300 and an Oliver 550 gas for 750. It is rough but it runs good. A new/better back tire and it will be a good mowing tractor.
One guy came up to me and ask me what an Oliver was. That shows you who was there. Young guys who have a couple of acres that thought they needed a large tractor.
There was an IH 460D I wanted really bad...but the fool thing went for 7500. Way out of my league. They had to show the guy how to drive it. I warned him about the TA on a down hill slope...but I know he paid me little attention.
He just wanted to get it on a truck and go home.
Just one of those odd auctions...guess they do happen.
