My take is it has less to do with what transpired and more to do with him bragging about how he "got" someone, and how he knew he was gonna "get" someone. BUT, you never know, the buyer of the loader may be bragging about how good a deal he got on the loader because it was incomplete.
Had I been at the sale "3 hours early, taking notes" (I never am. If I'm lucky, I'll get there 20 minutes late), I would have brought it to the attention of the auctioneer or the seller that these items should be together. I do it every time I'm at a sale and see something wrong.

Low and behold, there sat the motor. I found the auctioneer on his break, told him about the motor and said he should resell the saw with the motor. He told me to forget it and take the motor as well, he wasn't gonna rerun it.
Yeah, it's the bragging that got my attention on that post.
