I am not a crop farmer so take this for what it is worth. I attend farm auctions a few times per year here in MO. I usually am looking at smaller 3 point attachments and the like. I do see a lot of the smaller grain handling equipment being sold and like you are saying the smaller stuff in excellent condition does go for higher prices.
As to buying the equipment I to rely on friends and the great folks on YT for advice on things. In the end it comes down you what you want and if you are willing to pay the price.
I recently purchased a 3 bottom plow. Overall the plow was in decent condition. It needed new shins and shares. I got the plow for $180 and put another $150 or so into the parts.
I could have found one in better condition but would have had to drive longer distance to get one and those were not exactly what I wanted. So in the end I got what I wanted even with having to buy some new parts.
In you case I would say if these meet your needs, are exactly what you want option wise and the cost to move is not excessive pull the trigger.
It is not that often that we find what we are wanting used with all the options we are looking for.
Just my 2 cents and it is worth what you paid for it.
