Hayman,
I find it interesting that you said you buy equipment to trade in. I am surprised that no one else picked up on that. Having been both a large farmer and a dealer I can say that used equipment is a liability. If you have used equipment take it to a consignment sale or put it out by the road with a sign on it. Then go to the dealer and ask for his best price for a clean deal. "Cash" does'nt mean anything to a dealer because it is all the same to him whether you have bucks in hand or financing. Another thing that I have found intersting is that a farmer will pay the price for parts but he will drive hundreds of miles to beat you down on the price of a tractor.
I found that selling tractors is something you have to do to get the parts business. Ed
