Awhile back I made some noise about this tractor I wanted out in Wisconsin. Thought I'd bid $2K as a grand gesture. Well, I didn't end up bidding even a buck, decided to keep an eye on it and see where the price went. One good thing about online sales: They give you plenty of time to come to your senses.
This tractor would have cost me around $5K by the time I got it home. I can do a lot of fixing up around here for that kind of money.
More than the final price, however, I was interested in how the bidding progressed. It held steady at around $975 for about 2 weeks. This morning it was still there, then by this afternoon, with two hours remaining, it was around $1300. Then in the span of about ten minutes it shot up to over $3000. The auction closing kept getting extended, the online version of "going once, going twice....." When I checked on it just now I found it had sold for the unusual price of $3202.50. Unusual because I don't see how they started bidding in increments of half-dollars.
I'll check out the local sale another YT-er made me aware of this fall. Much closer to home. $3202.50. Someone really wanted that little tractor. Gerrit

Today's Featured Article - When Push Comes to Shove - by Dave Patterson. When I was a “kid” (still am to a deree) about two I guess, my parents couldn’t find me one day. They were horrified (we lived by the railroad), my mother thought the worst: "He’s been run over by a train, he’s gone forever!" Where did they find me? Perched up on the seat of the tractor. I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
