auctions

I havent bought anything from any of the auction links you post, but I almost always look (and drool!) Thanks for posting these!

well...Creston...I gots 2 "G"s i'll sell ya! one is a parts unit, but they served me well for many years! they were a blast to use!

I watched that C with the steel wheels earlier this week, almost kick myself for not bidding, went for $470.  Just parts tractor but the wheels were worth at least that much to me.  Snooze, I loose!

Stock boys are the ones that do Big Iron.com auctions. I have been to their auctions and have not been impressed with the way they do business. They are only located 15 miles from me and i would not do business with them. Buyer Beware when these boys are selling

1terrygladys: Thanks for your post. The same thing that happened to you also happened to me. "If you can't go look at it beforehand, don't buy it. Don't do what I did."

I took a different route, as my D-14 purchase was also sold with a woods mower. I was able to use the mower, remove and repurpose the 3 point hitch and then resold the tractor at a consignment auction to essentially break even. So, really don't feel I was left out in the cold as you. However, I really agree that everyone needs to take your advise that you posted. Thanks.

gosh...I've purchased quite a number of items on their auctions, and have never had a bad experience yet! lucky? guess so! i'm bidding on some items right now. but I do call the owners of the items and ask questions...I know if there is a pause or an excited quick answer, there is a flag to me! the picture taking rep should ask questions when on location and also make his own assessments too! also the office personel have always been great to deal with! I think they do have the best on-line type auctions available, better than others I've dealt with. guess it's like any other auction...you can be taken if you can't see what may be wrong on the inside! I know sometimes...it's a crap shoot! guess I've just been lucky so far!
