Another auction

Posted by keh on February 25, 2005 at 16:03:04 from (64.53.72.177):

Went to auction at Charlotte, NC. I thought group might be interested in results.
Fewer gray market Japanese tractors today. The word I got was that some of the importers wanted too much for them. I looked up some listings of models of Yanmar and Mitisubishi tractors and it appears many of them for sale were made in the 1980"s.
At that auction many other tractors (Ford and John Deere, mostly} are brought over from England by one importer. He said the decline of the dollar made used tractors in England too high for him to make any money, but the drop in the dollar value meant he could buy things here and send them overseas.
Results:

Two wheel drive Japanese tractors bring about $2000 and 4 wheel drive bring about $1000 more.
One Bolens Iseiki 4 wd brought $2800.
Others:
Ford 2000 4 cyl low clearence $2400.
Farmall Super A $1700. Not started, good metal.
8N Ford, $1575, Fair metal.
Ford 4600 $5100. New paint, good tires.

Ford 9N $1350. Good cond.

AC D15 $2200. Nice original condition,but not mint condition.
MF 235 $4350.
MF 135 diesel $3250
