If you deposited the check into your account, your bank probably has an image of that check on microfilm. You might ask the bank about that possibility. If you find out his name and address, I would suggest sending him a registered letter requesting that he come pick up the item, or at least contact you for other arrangements.
I would think that most states have a written law about how abandoned property is to be handled. You might do some investigation on the internet--I think I could find the procedure for my state in an hour or less. There are probably some hoops to jump through to regain ownership of the item you sold. I sure wouldn't feel right about reselling, or for that matter, giving away something that someone has bought and paid for. And doing so could lead to legal problems for you.
It is annoying to have to mow around something that no longer should be where it is. I tend to spray Roundup on such areas, and after that, I don't have to mow there again that year. I also would sure consider moving the item to an area where it was less in the way.
Who know what might have happened to the buyer? It could be that he became ill or had an accident and just cannot come pick up the item. Or maybe he forgot or lost your address and can't figure out how to contact you.
If you are anything like me, you will feel better if you do the right thing, whatever that is. Good luck!

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
