I just got back from having my head examined, and I stand by my comment. I've been to a regular consignment auction in Dodgeville and another one in Strawberry Point and both somewhat regularly have on-site sellout sales.
They'll stop the other truck spend a couple minutes talking about the seller and spend a lil more time selling the equipment. If the seller is inclined, he'll say a few words or answer questions. The items generally do quite a bit better than the other junk that frequents the sale. Seller doesn't have to worry about a small crowd, potential thieves, parking, watching their stuff being cut up by the scrapper in their front yard, loading, etc. I really like a good on-farm auction, but sometimes taking it to a consignment lot is preferable.
But I also stand by my other comment. If it were me, I'd do the online auction with a local auctioneer.
