Think of all the time you save by not having to entertain these people at your home looking at the tractor. The photos you provide give potential buyers a good idea if it's worth their pursuit or not. Seems to me this is a lot simpler than wasting their time (and gas) as well as yours to look at an item in person just to discover that it's not what they're looking for because of a poor verbal description. From personal experience I can tell you that a good picture is worth a thousand words. So many times I've been told someone has a "like new", "low hours" tractor for sale or one "totally restored" or "mint" (now there's an abused word) that I later come to find was painted with a rattle can and has 4 different size tires on it. A seller can describe a tractor to a buyer all day long but until you see pictures, it's really meaningless. One man's "mint" is another man's "junk". Besides, once you take the digital photos (which should only put you out a few minutes), how hard is it to send them out to anyone interested? So you have to type their address in and press "send"... what's the big hassle? You can use them over and over again and they're free. Sure, some people might just like to look, but most serious buyers these days want to see pictures before they'll waste their time looking at something in person. I know I do.

While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
