There is an auctioneer here who does just a few sales a year and most of the time only one of them has any equipment. Mostly just does household and houses. Any way I went to a sale of his about a year ago looking at a ford 9700. There was about 4 equipment jockies there looking at it at the start of the sale. I s*** you not it took them 4 and a half hours to sell one wagon load of junk and a garage full of junk and then the house before selling the tractor. It sold for about half what the grandson thought it should and was have'n a fit. He wanted to know why I did not keep bidding and let the other guy have it so cheap and I said I figured he make enough off selling all them $3 shovels that he didn't need any more.

On the other end, there is a guy here who holds a few sales a year and I have seen him not take $500 bids on a tractor. He stoped a sale one time and said that if he had a $4,000 dollar bid on a tractor and you wanted it you had to come up with atleast $5000 and not waste his time.
