I much prefer sitting at my keyboard, opening my emailed eBay alerts, and sending those preferred parts to "My eBay" watched list. Marty consistently has the parts that I want.
Certainly not all the parts or not in a timely availability. I needed the solid vertical lift link for a 300-400 Fast Hitch this summer to complete my down-pressure snowplow. It took about 10 calls to salvage yards and I finally found an outfit that actually knew what I was talking about and had the part. It cost me $40 plus shipping. If I hadn't been in a hurry, that would be a $9.99 part from Marty and is almost certain to be serviceable and shipped without damage. But I do have some reservations that his crew might not know how to remove it from the tractor.
In another instance, I have been waiting three years for an aluminum hydraulic lever for a 400 Standard Tread. I emailed dealers and salvage yards. Nothing. I printed out a list of salvage yards in small-grain states. Finally found a lever in Canada. They would only sell me the three valves, levers, and linkages as a package. They wanted $500. If I get lucky, Marty may get a 400-450-460-560-660 Wheatland or Orchard and will list the lever separately. Shouldn't have to pay more than $20. This is one of the reasons why I don't like being blocked.
I am not worried about being sued by Marty. He is not coming to Massachusetts to haul me to court. But if he did, I could print out 50 pages of negative posts from YT, RPM, and eBay that show a consistent pattern of deceit and dishonesty. Maybe I would subpoena his eBay account rep, LOL. No, his name is not Larry O'Leary.

Today's Featured Article - An Old-Time Tractor Demonstration - by Kim Pratt. Sam was born in rural Kansas in 1926. His dad was a hard-working farmer and the children worked hard everyday to help ends meet. In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer. It was an Allis-Chalmers tractor dealership,
