Been watching on and off on the internet. Prices all over the place. Watched cast iron seats go from $50 up to near $1000, with many in the $100 to $200 range. Pallets of John Deere parts the first day seemed to bring an awful lot to me (100's of dollars). Saw a set of John Deere rear spoked rims with no rubber go for $1400. Then there was the usual auction junk which brought what it would at any auction.
Combines usually went for $500 to $600 with a few exceptions. Tractors have ranged so far from $200 for basically piles of tractor parts or stripped down tractors to the highest I've seen (may be higher) for a very large Hart-Parr at a price of $34,500. Seems like the common tractors bring from $250 to $600, with other tractors (rare, steel wheeled, high crops, industrials) usually fetching into the $1000's. Many looked complete, at least in yesterday's auction, so you could find a decent tractor to tinker with for a few hundred dollars if you are not picky about collectability or rarity. Haven't seen many John Deeres sell, most have been International, Oliver, Case, Minneapolis/Twin City, and a few Fords.
Have not did any internet bidding. A little further than I would like to travel (plus I would probably buy too much anyway). Seems like there were a lot more internet bidders yesterday with the better tractors being auctioned off. Would hope that bidding is quicker than the watching. Can't believe a company who does that for their business would not have the bugs worked out. Sometimes will work real-time, other times locks up and looses connection. Even the audio is overloaded.

Today's Featured Article - Old Time Threshing - by Anthony West. A lovely harvest evening late September 1947, I was a school boy, like all school boys I loved harvest time. The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
