Crazy Prices

Went to an auction last week to look at a early B-10 and L-10 loader combo. The unit was all original,needed tires,paint and would guess it had not been run in 15-20 years so it probably needed some mechanical work also. It shot up to $1700.00 . On another note I looked at a B-210 this morning,complete tractor with no attachments that can be bought for $50.00. Right place right time. HAPPY TRACTOR HUNTING EVERYONE

Loaders are rare and will bring a minumum of $750 at auction in ANY condition, just supply and demand. The craziest price I have seen was last Friday at lunch, a can of Pepsi, diet Pepsi, Moutain dew, etc. was 50 cents. A bottle of water was a buck! Man, am I in the wrong business!

So, tell us the rest of the story...... The $1700 you paid for the B-10 tapped you out, and you didn't have $50 to buy the B-210?

Well Dutch the bidding started at $500 ,not to bad at first then steadily went to $1700. I set my limit at $1000,went by so fast didn't even bid. As far as the B-210, its setting in a dealers lot.I talked to the dealers neighbor who knew the price.I'll have to get back to him on Monday.

      Site programming updates were made 3/23/2024. As a result some things have changed including dues payment options. We will continue maintenance and work with technicians to regain credit card payment option and clear up minor challenges. On positive it appears attaching pictures is now easier. Good day. Gene
