Red: You may end up keeping that tractor if you buy it. I really don't know anything about the 484 except most people who bought them new are still running them, and working in commercial applications. They just seem to run and run with very few problems. I am talking about 8 to 10 tractors I am personally aware of.

One I know of in particular was bought new when the guy started farming. (mid to late 70's) Since about his 5th year farming he has always maintained a 3 tractor fleet. His needs are for two 40 to 50 hp tractors and one 70 hp. He has never bought anything but new tractors. That IH 484 has stayed around that farm while 2 Allis, 2 Fords, 2 Kubotas and 2 Deeres, have come and gone. Today the 484 is still there along with a new Deere and Kubota.

I have also been on discussions here at YT for about 5 years now. I estimate 80% of what I've seen on here has been positive, about the 484. Not a lot of tractors fall in that catergory.
