Wow, a whole bunch of you Vermont guys came out of the woodwork! On the lift, I did see it sell and I think it went for what I would consider to be high but I had no interest in it so didn't pay much attention or write it down. I grew up going to Gray's auctions in East Thetford. That was always a treat when dad would take us there. My brothers and I still laugh about the people and the funny things they said and did, 50 years later. That auction would be held every Monday, no matter what. Didn't matter if it was Christmas Eve, 4th of July or grampa's funeral. I don't believe I'll be able to get to another one there until maybe October or November. OBTW, I did bid on one item: a Planet Jr. cultivator that was all original and ran good and had obviously been well cared for. It went for $75. I knew the guy who brought it in. I wish I had known he wanted to sell it earlier. I would have given him $75 for it and saved somebody the 6% VT sales tax and saved him the commission. I told Herbie Gray that he should sell that field and buy one across the river in Orford, NH and let VT take its sales tax and put it where the sun don't shine. ":^O
