There were 2 auctions I wanted to attend last weekend, so I decided to put in absentee bids in at one auction. I met the auctioneer a week early and looked over the items. I put bids on 6 lots, for a total of about $2400.00. I knew the $2400.00 was very competative and figured I would get at least 4 of the lots and maybe all of them. Auctioneer called and said got all 6 for $1900 total. Fine, meet up with the auctioneer a few days after the sale, paid the auctioneer and start loading up. Start talking to another guy loading up. I asked him if he saw my lots sell. He said he did. He said the auctioneer grouped all the items together with a starting bid of $1900.00. No one else bid, so he knocked them off and moved on. I was a little irritated. One one hand I got the items for less than the max, but on the other hand dont you think he oughta let a live floor bidder set the starting minimum bid instead of starting at a high bid since he knew I was good for it? I wonder what the "proper" auction method is for dealing with a situation like that.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
