Sad H story - Rockford CL - Maybe it involves one of you???

Posted by sflem849 on March 10, 2012 at 16:49:20 from (69.197.84.39):

I called on an H on CL that had been on less than an hour. The ad said new 12.4x38 Firestones, belly mower, and ran just fine. He bought a Kubota to replace it and that is the only reason it is leaving. I told the guy I would come down and look at it. I asked if he would take a check since I don't keep a grand laying around the house and the banks are closed. He said he would check with his dad. He got back to me after a short while and somebody more local than me went and bought it. I assume he had cash...

Turns out the tractor was the last one made in 1942! Sucks for me, good for the other guy. I thought the tractor would have been a good deal without a special serial number. The owners son (who I dealt with) said it "went to a collector who was going to take it to shows" maybe it is a YTer? I'm all depressed and I tought talking about it might make me feel better. :cry:

Edit - Sorry...lots of typos. Must have been all my tears. :lol: In hindsight I should have just headed down with the trailer and some cash. I could have written a check for the remainder or I could have let him hold the cash until I paid in full on Monday.
