When I look at something, I show up with a stack of $100s and a trailer. No money exchanges hands until the machine is on my trailer and strapped down.
I haven't met anyone yet who would be able to load anything/have something loaded on their trailer without having the money for the item handed to the seller first. I sure as heck wouldn't load anything for a buyer or allow him or her to load it themselves without having payment in my hands if I were the one selling something. I wouldn't unload it if I were delivering it without payment being made, either.
There are some who would find it much too easy to tuck a stack of $10's or $1's between two $100's, or have a fist full of monopoly money. Then the guy tries to re-negotiate when it's chained to his trailer. "I thought I had $400, but I only have $310. How ever did I not notice that? $310 will still work, right?" They could even just drive off.
A potential buyer waving green $$$ around does nothing for me. Being able to put the amount of it I want for an item I'm selling into my pocket might. Certainly, nothing will be loaded until that time. When selling something, I inspect cash just as a buyer would inspect an item.

While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
