There was an auction Saturday at Sherrill, Iowa. Donnie Luken sold his equipment. The hot item being a JD 7410 with 3000ish hours on it. It and the JD 740 loader sold for $70,000.
The fun thing is they represented the tractor as ONE owner at the sale. That is not true. The tractor was bought and owned for two years by another fellow. He traded it in to dealership/me when he sold his farm. Donnie then bought it.
They also sold a JD 1987 Titan II Side hill combine. It was a clean machine but they said it came from a local custom guy, Jim Graf and then Donnie bought it. Well it came out of Kansas which I would sure not call local. LOL
So watch the stories that you hear at sales. Many owners and auctioneers can tell tall tails. LOL
