Lot here depends on location and need. WE have a lot of hobby farms in the area, (5-40 acres with a horse or 2) and the owners have been buying older tractors for years now keeping the prices way up. 3/350, 4/450, 4/560, 7/806, small Fords and AC D series have been very high. Now all of a sudden prices have tanked. Decent looking running tractors with good rubber at auction in Oct, all gas 1700-1750, 706 open station, 730 Case open station and a D17 AC open station with an all hydraulic loader.

Those sized tractors are not in demand by the full time farmers here who are buying Magnums and 4X4's.

Guy got a JD LM and told me he almost bought a 2nd one but had promised his wife he was only buying one. She told him well you paid less than half what you we planning on spending you caould have gotten another.

You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
