Anyone had dealings with them? I ended up buying a tractor that was supposedly rebuilt and it is leaking antifreeze from the head and radiator as soon as it was run. I would like to hear if anyone else has had business dealings with them? The hang up on me when called.

They are crooks, stay away from them they have nothing but junk and they lie about the junk they have, they will say that the tractor has a rebuilt engine or "overhauled" when they have not done a thing to it. I looked at a tractor there(I drove pretty far) and the guy was an $%#%! I have never met a more unfriendly person.

they are crooks at best , a friend of mine, his son asked about a tractor, their worker started it it was driven less than 100 ft and the motor seized up, long story short grays , called the law said the boy stole the tractor, i think they were trying to scare them into buying a junk tractor for big money,gary is a part time deputy of some sort, the tractor was last seen at london, a lot of their one owner tractors are london tractors, only god knows how many owners but they are advertized as one owners,

Gee Guys, you have made me feel much better. About a month ago, Gray's had a Farmall 100 advertised for $1,800 which I thought worthy of looking into. I phoned them, long distance, got someone on the phone and as soon as I told them I was inquiring about the tractor, they hung up. Thinking at first that we may have been accidently cut off, I phoned them, long distance again, and as soon as I told them that I thought we had gotten cut off, they hung up again. Always being one to give someone the benefit of the doubt, I then E.Mailed them explaining that I was interested in the 100, and that I had tried twice, unsuccessfully, to contact them by phone, and would they E.mail me and let me know if the tractor was still available, and if so, could we make some arrangements for me to come down to Ohio to look at it. The E.Mail never got answered. I just figured that they probably sold the tractor or had so many inquiries that they were tired of answering the same questions. It did tick me off, tho, because whatever the reason, I didn't feel that I deserved to be treated rudely, which by that time, I thought was the case. The more I thought, the more I decided that if they were that rude to begin with, heaven knows how rude they would be if there were a problem, so I washed my hands of the whole thing. I guess they did me a favor, because If I'm going to spend my hard earned cash for something, I expect common courtesy even if the item is "as is where is".

I live in Georgetown, and no one around here would even consider buying his junk. I took a good friend of mine who was visiting from Alaska over to see him, as my friend saw an ad for a tractor he wanted to look at. They wouldn't even start the tractor for us. Said he was too busy, and didn't have time to talk to us. So, I walked over to it, hit the starter, and killed about a million mosquitoes with all the smoke it belched out.

Don't waste another trip to his place. If you see an ad, or are interested in something he has, email me. I'll go look at it for you, deem it junk, and save you a trip.

I have bought a tractor from Gray's I knew it was not in great shape, but I would never buy from them again, they are not friendly people and when they say overhauled what they really mean is that they just put a cheap coat of paint on it, I have a friend that said the same thing about the overhauling he looked at an overhauled tractor and said all that was done is a paint job and a tie rod replaced. I would stay away from them.

I would say that he is a crook if he has rebuilt the engine then he should stand behind it and make it wright . For the 19 years that i did the buy and sell and repair i only had one that i had a problem with and i ate that one and it did not taste vary good . and the one that i was not proud of i told the man stright up that it was darn near junk and what it needed to make it a good tractor and he did not care and took it that way and i marked on the bill of sale that it was in need of work and it was as is where is..

That is a long way to travel to look at a tractor! I wish I would have though. I have contacted the Indiana, and ohio Attourny general and the BBB so far to work this for me.

Unfortunately I didn't make that trip, he had 5-6 bouts with the better business bureau I saw. It looks like he has 5-6 tractors on the ad board at the moment for sale.
