I buy and sell thru Ebay quite often.there's a couple of things you should do. The first thing you can do is figure out just exactly what the item is worth to you and deduct any shipping and place that as your maximum bid. I've lost alot of auctions that way but I knew what I can buy the item for elsewhere. So if the bid went higher than I bid, some fool just got screwed.

I know from experience!(not on a tractor but much smaller items)
