In Reply to: Agco parts system???? posted by JD Seller on November 15, 2015 at 09:24:16:
I work for a John Deere dealer but have owned several pieces of AGCO equipment prior to working for Deere. I have been seeing parts prices through AGCO that are 2x to 3x that of comparable John Deere parts, lots of discontinued parts on equipment that is not that old (70s, 80s, 90s), and very little stock on hand. What parts they can get take 2-3 weeks to come in. I think part of the problem is they have too many brands under AGCO. White, Cockshutt, Oliver, MM, Massey Ferguson, Agco-Allis, Challenger, Gleaner, Fendt, etc. etc. Whereas John Deere parts departments sell and stock John Deere and that's it.
Just an example I had to go to AGCO for a transmission line for one of my tractors. For a small line with two fittings they wanted almost $300 and it would take 2 weeks to come in (comparable Deere part was around $100 and in stock but had the wrong fittings for my application). I ended up buying some bulk line and fittings and made a line for around $20.
