round here 2600 just as well be a MILLION,I know many farmers that have not over spent that are going to go under this year, ''retiring'' sounds better then broke! More deals to come!

Didn't buy anything, was going to bid on some forks but they were bid up for more then I wanted to pay before I even got a chance. Sold by a friend of mine about 20 miles away. Things aren't all that bad here, yet, but I am hearing of people thinking of retiring while they can.

These days what sometimes sounds like a real deal isnot ,The way things have been falling off cheap is not a deal ,it is the market.
