From what I have seen over the years;

Seems to really depend on location and of course the time of year.

Some areas have more grain farmers others have more cattlemen.

Often I see an item sell at a sale for half of what the identical item sold for at a sale 60 miles away the week before.

I see this so often that when I am shopping for a certain item I will decide what sales to attend based largely on what is the prominent land use is of the area the sale is being held at.

Buy snowplows, blowers etc in the summer.

Buy hay rakes, boats etc in the winter when demand is low.

Late fall early winter sales often a waste of time if you are looking for a deal as many producers who have had a good year have funds on hand and are looking for tax write-off items before year end.

In a bad year some good deals to be had, not as much cash floating around and some selling things off to keep the bank happy.

Smaller items- lawn tractors, rototillers etc can be had for a fair price when being sold at a sale far from town.

The same items sell at sales close to populated areas for ridiculous money as there is a large number of Citidiots trying to find equipment for there 2.2 acres.
