Right on time the Guy in New Hampshire with the really nice and waaaaaayyyyyy overpriced tractors for sale on photo ads hit again: Case SC "Rare Tractor" and I think he is askin" like $4800. Well that"s fine, lt is his and he can ask what he wants, but here is the problem it creates: I know where there are several SCs and DCs sitting in the dingweeds...certainly not rare (maybe if they have foot clutch, Eagle Hitch and wide front they would be a little more desireable, but certainly not rare...Waterloo Boys are rare, 730 HiCrop LPs are rare, Hen"s Teeth are rare)anyway, I stop and inquire, invariably I hear "well it was my Great Uncles it"s been there for years I don"t know what it"s worth."

Soon I"ll get a call, "well my buddy knows a guy who has an old tractor, he told us to look on Yesterday"s Tractors to get and idea...hey that tractor is rare! It"s worth over $4000!" One of the BIG reasons not so much collectin" gettin" done now days!
