Hey, selling/buying used stuff is a crap shoot. I never take offense if someone makes an offer and I don't think a seller should be offended if I make them an offer. Even when I've had stuff listed as "firm", I've had people say "will you take $xx?". I just politely tell them "No".
If the person I'm dealing with is nice and friendly, I'll sometimes move in a direction (buying or selling,up or down) that I wouldn't go if the person is an ornery or slimey type person.
Also, I try not to drive long distances to look at stuff for the reason that I might be tempted to buy something just to justify the trip.
Just last week I had a guy drive over 3 hrs to look at a piece of machinery. Said he was real interested, was going to line up transportation, etc. Told him that he hadn't bought it yet so don't get carried away with how to haul it. He called yesterday and sounded disappointed when I told him it was sold.
If someone is coming a long way, I'll ask when they're coming. If they seem unsure or don't want to tell me, I tell that if I know they're on their way and it gets sold before they get here, I'd give them a courtesy call to save them the trip. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't but at least I try.

Potatoes were grown for sale and oats were grown to be used for cattle and horse feeding. Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
