I generally only go to a couple consignment auctions a year. I like to get there early and look around; check over what I'm interested in, then put a value on it that I'm willing to pay. When it gets around to bidding, I never make the first bid unless/until they ask for an offer. If there's two or more others duking it out, I let them go. I don't need to add to the frenzy. When they're done, and IF it's still in my price range I'll bid just before they yell sold. I generally bid on the slower side or erratically. The sales I go to allow you to bid on what you're selling, so you never know when you're bidding against the owner or his friend. It's best to make them wonder just when they might be taking the thing home... When it gets to my limit, I'll probably turn my back to walk, then bid again just before they yell sold. Sometimes someone else will jump in before me. Sometimes the other guy will bid again. At that point, I'm done. I don't really get involved with running items up beyond what I will pay, but I have been run myself before, and KNEW I was run, and I had no hesitation about letting the big dog win. There was some laughter around that day...

The answer to our needs materialized in the form of a '44 Farmall A, complete with cultivators, discs, single plow, a 5ft.Woods belly mower and one, mounted spare 9.00x24 rear wheel.
