That would be stealing in this area! Someone got a really good deal.

This was in reference to the 656 with loader (seen in pic with bale spears). Wish I could have bought that tractor rather than the 460 I ended up with. Very poor selection of machines up here!
 
All of those prices seem very low when compared to what the same equipment would bring here. The JD 2520 would easily bring 4-5K more here.
 
Al Baker, you and I share the same curse lol, everytime we go to an auction stuff sells like gold. When we can't go it all goes cheap. gobble
 
The low prices might be due to known or expected mechanical issues. I saw a 4320 sell around a decade ago for around 6,000 dollars because the owner was known to be slipping mentally. Story was that he often put the wrong oil in a given port. HyGard in the engine crankcase for example. Most of the time he would catch himself before he started something up but not always. Many years ago we had neighbors that were very poor on maintenance but never beat the sheet metal in on equipment. They pushed off oil changes and were stingy with the grease gun. Nobody would have paid top dollar for their tractors even though the appearance was pretty decent. I have a feeling that something is being left out as to the history of the owner that the OP is referencing.
 
I go to lots of sales and those are about the normal prices in my area...Plus,this isn't going to be a real good year for farming in my area.....Both the 2520 and D-17 had leaking fuel and the blocks were dirty..I heard that the 2520 had a new block put in it some years back..I had guessed it at $6000 and it almost brought that..All these tractors did was some haying and brush hogging..
