Am I wrong in my thinking???

My wife told me I need to sell one of my tractors to make room for my grandfathers 22-36 McCormick Deering. I agreed, I only have four total and all at my dads. This is the part I cant understand (I do not want to offend any color blind collector (my father one them), so I will say sorry now -- sorry). I posted and heard very little on the add. I have an Oliver Hart Parr 70 that runs for 1200 I'll take 1000. From what I have read it was a big part of the tractors turning point into the styled, streamlined, visionline etc. workhorses of the late 30's and early 40's. I do not feel I am way out there in left field with my pricing. Looking through the ads I wonder how the pricing got so high $2600 for a JD A or even a JD B. I have noticed at one time or another a Farmall H for over 4000. I have just started with my tractors 4 years ago and have seen an increase in price. I am 29 and can remember my father buying a '50 JD A for 350 and saying he paid to much for it (a running tractor). I saw a "low priced" A for 1250 that was stuck. The saddest part is I know people are paying these prices well over what the tractors are still worth. Also what happened to how a tractor runs instead of what kind of paint you put on it and how many layers of clearcoat? Thank you for taking the time to read this I feel slightly better typing and posting this

Thank You
