Just had it happen to me AGAIN. Second time in a week.
I called on a nice used tractor listed on the interweb. The machine looks decent. Listed at 662 hours. It goes on an auction next week.
In the course of the conversation, I ask the standard question: Do you believe the hours are correct?
And the sales guy says, "Well, now, I guess now that you mention it, the tach doesn't work on that machine, so I guess that might not be right."
You don't freaking say! So when you put 662 hours in the ad, you just kinda forgot to say that there was no way that was accurate?
I feel kind of bad, but guys, I kind of lost my sh!t on the guy. I told him that was BS to be putting hours in an ad when he knew full well they were inaccurate. I said that was BS and that info should be in the auction listing.
It's a nice tractor but no freaking way am I going to even look at it now that these fraudsters have tried to pull this BS.
Last week on an auction same thing happened. Machine had 800 hours listed in the auction listing and seconds before the auction started the auctioneer said, aw shucks, the tach don't work... Oh well, let's sell 'er...
Is this kind of misrepresentation illegal or considered fraud in most states?

As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
