I'll never understand people at auctions, myself included. I'm usually too cautious, mostly because of lack of knowledge. The Cyclone seeder yesterday a case in point. I look at it like the casino; don't gamble more than you can afford to lose. But on the other hand, I bought about a half-roll of new 2 x 4 mesh fence for $4.00 and the next item was a roll of used fence the same mesh that sold for $45.00 rust and all. No guarantee there was 100 feet on the roll. New sells for $70.00. A 25-gallon sprayer with a diaphram pump sold for over $70.00. If the pump is shot, that's a lot for a tank.
An 8N in not particularly good shape sold for 1700 and a Farmall M that ran great brought 1400. An IH #10 grain drill, clean as a whistle but without a grass or fert box, sold for $150 without the cylinder. I would have bid but I don't have hydraulics to work the lift. Please don't tell me it didn't need one.
Either way they are still fun. And there are enough of them often enough eventually what youre looking for will come up.
