I've taken a few odds and ends to a consignment sale before in our area. Not the place to sell if you want top dollar. Yet its a good way to get rid of older machinery thats worth more than scrap yet not worth advertising and spending time with phone calls and Looky Lous. Many people at a consignment sale want a reserve price on their machinery but its just not possible for the auctioneers to keep track of all that crap when everyone thinks their junk is worth gold. Everyone is told straight up, if you want to protect your price then you need to be here on auction day to buy it back (bid) yourself, or have someone else to do it for you. I don't have a problem with that. My biggest peeve is the auctioneer who can't move things along when selling the junk on the flatbed wagons at a farm sale. We have an auctioneer who needs to stay in the cattle barn selling steers because on a farm sale he and his help will pick up an item off the wagon, talk about what they think it is or what its for, and then debate about where to start the bidding, then they spend way to much time trying to get a 2 dollar bid, (they won't sell anything for a dollar) then debate about what items to add to it to get a bid, then screw up the bidding by selling it to two top bidders, then have to start all over again. All for 2 bucks. Its excruciating to witness while you check your watch and figure the hour you have to wait for the real machinery to sell will be 3 or 4 hours away at this pace. Arrrrggghh

I had also considered buying a landrover and trailer, but the price of a
