Crackerhead described the seller as a friend. His friend clearly did not have an idea of the tractor's value. Crackerhead did. I would not do that to a friend.
A few years ago a friend of a friend wanted to get out of the hobby and offered to sell me his last two tractors. They were very desireable tractors in as close to perfect condition as two 50 year old tractors could be. He offered them to me at $19,000. I figured they were easilly worth $31,000, and I told him that. Talked to him a bit and found out that he really wanted to keep one of the tractors but he needed the money. I helped him sell the tractor he was most willing to part with. He got enough money from that sale to keep the other.
I would have been very happy to have both tractors. Or I could have written him a check for $19,000 and turned around and sold both of them for a hefty profit. But to me doing what I did seemed like the right thing to do at the time, and I still think it was.
