Mark Westphal: If you read the original Aumann auctions ad you will realize that what is being auctioned off in April is the inventory of Gary's Implement and the land it was on, which was supposedly sold in 1998. This is what is disputed in the bankruptcy court documents. The disputed items and the items being auctioned off are one and the same. Otherwise why would Mrs. Phillips cancel her contractual obligations with Aumann auctions? There is something just not right there. Also if you check out the auction ads it is not 20 000 tractors or pieces of equipment, it is 20 000 LOTS. There are only about 2500 tractors plus combines and implements as mentioned. The rest of the lots are parts, toys, miscellaneous articles, and cars and trucks undoubtedly, as a bunch of old cars and trucks can be seen in the original Aumann Auctions pictures on their website.
As I have said before I was planning on going, but I have decided to stay out of this mess. Buying a tractor whose ownership is disputed is the same as buying a car or truck from someone who cannot provide proof of ownership. They may very well own it, but without further investigation, you cannot be immediately certain. Unless Mrs. Phillips and/or Kruse auctions can come in the clear about what has transpired on the legal side of things and who is actually auctioning everything off, then I would be extremely wary of bidding on anything.
