Well this is not as you really want to see it! It is not as you say " A p**sing contest" What drove this price up, is greed on both sides of the sale. Seller and buyer shared this inflation.
The seller at the auction, the auctioneer or a private seller or even someone selling their late fathers, sons, husbands estate. The seller could have stopped it. I.E. When the UDLX's started to changing hands back a few years ago it seemed be like two or three came up on auctions and every time it was a little higher than before. Then sellers where coming out selling their's for even more. The sellers could have put a stop to the auction/sale at $50,000.00 is the top bid first one there gets it.
But no lets see how much money I can ring out of these people at the cash register. Because they have more money than since and I am going to play on there greed of wanting it so bad they will give almost anything for it. Then the seller plays the two or three greedy people at the auction or private sale against each other.
Just to help their own greed cause to get more money. There is a big difference between in a profit and just being greedy. I have seen this first hand at auctions that have scrap on it and the scrapers pay way more than what the market will bare and they lost money on it before the even load it on the truck. All this done just to keep the other guy from getting it.
Then at the coffee shop at the other table are the sellers in a "p**sing contest" telling how much money they got out of their tractors and are holding the cash in hand bragging.
Just like this thread here are you trying to just double your money on it or is it because another one just sold sold for a "five figure" price and you want in on the cash register here too? Or could it be you just want to brag on having a book that is going to sell for big bucks and you don't have the tractor any more because you jumped the gun too soon on the sell of your UDLX and are kicking yourself on cashing out for way less than these people are sell for and getting out of them now?
$15,000 would buy me a lot more tractors and then one book or even $150,000.00 for a lot more tractors and a new heated shed to store them and display them in. Instead of one a that price.
But hey, that's the American way buy low sell high! I would like to know who first said that one.

Today's Featured Article - Show Coverage: Godfrey, Illinois Country Days - by Cindy Ladage. Except for last fourth of July's Old Gold show in Springfield, Illinois, I don't remember when it was so hot.
