I hardly ever go to an auction and i seldom buy anything there either.
I hate wasting my time and to wait for hours for something i'm interested in to finally come up to get sold only to see it go twice for what i was willing to pay, yet lots of other items i was not interested in went dirt cheap
Funny thing is,.. the winning buyer is thought to be the biggest fool of all cause no one else thought it was worth that much.Lol
On the other hand what would be really scary is if i had to hold a farm auction not knowing upfront what my stuff would sell for and no say when is just about given away.
I been stung bad once before when i sold my 125 head black angus/limousin cross cow/calf herd with 300+/- lb calves at foot in late April 18 years ago on a cattle auction. i was given quote by the auction representative that had come to my yard to give me an estimate of $1200-1300 a pair. By the time i hit the auction(500 km trip) 1/2 hour after it started my cows where already sold!(they must've been the first ones trough the ring)...they had brought only $700 a pair!.. and i still owed the truckers for transport.
After that episode i lost all trust in an auctioneer.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
