LAA: here we have about a half dozen auction companies. 2 are very good and get most of the auctions. But they get the biggest commission. The others range from fair to poor. Most of those who contract with the poorer auctioneers do it because of the commission. But because they are known to everyone they get poor attendance and even less money. One will put out bills with the descriptions being total lies. I went to one of his where he claimed 5 running smaller tractors and an 856 Farmall in good condition. On the day of the auction there were signs on all the tractors like on the 856 "transmission shifting problem" and on 3 of the others engine "engine stuck". People know this so few attend his auctions and of those no one is spending any real money. One of our better auctioneers here has a crew out to pressure wash stuff and get it lined up. He will also tell you if he thinks something is worth fixing. Like a none running H he may ignore while something that will sell for twice the money he will tell see if you can't get someone to get it running. So JD's observations may not be too far off.
