I agree with the other guys, trying to unload a pile of H's in a single sale will be a tough row to hoe, and you will ultimately take a soaking.

Please brace yourself when you start hearing numbers, as they will not be anywhere near what you have in the tractors. That's just the nature of the hobby.

Auctions probably aren't a good idea either. H's don't generally do well at auctions in my experience, precisely because there are so many of them. The paint job would have to be something special and it would have to just purr to bring more than $800-$1200.

Your best H may be worth $2000 to the right person with new tires, no major leaks, and good paint.

You'll never know until you try. Put the best one out there on this site and Craigslist with good pictures and $2500 on it. That'll give you some room to work on the price as you dicker with potential buyers. If it doesn't sell you can always drop the price.

Just be prepared to deal with idiots, tire kickers, no-shows, lowballers, and an occasional scammer. It's all part of the game of selling. Most of them are obvious and easy to avoid. For example, if Prince Mombutu of Uganda offers to buy your tractor if you ship it to him in Zamibia, that's a scam. Don't get mad. Don't get even. Just hit delete.
