Well almost correct, but not quite:

Years ago, we wanted to buy a yard tractor and I took my boss and as it happened our local Deutz dealer who fancied a day out, with me to the Cheffins sale yard at Sutton.
It just so happened that there was a rather nice Deutz 80hp 4WD.
Our local dealer said it was a good one worth about £4K and we should buy it.
My boss, who had never been to an agricultural sale before asked if he could do the bidding, to which I agreed.

The bidding started at about a grand and went up in £100 pound increments.
When it got to about £1700, my boss suddenly stopped bidding, turned to me and asked “Richard, can you see who else is bidding?”

To which the Auctioneer who I knew quite well said to him “Nobody Sir, but the tractor hasn’t yet reached its reserve.”

So my boss said “How much is the Reserve?”

The auctioneer replied “£2000 Sir.”

“OK” said my boss, “I’ll give you £2000 for it”

“Done!” Said the auctioneer.

“You certainly have been” said my boss. “We would have gone to £4K, if you’d got your act together better!”


The rest of the crowd were pi55ing themselves laughing.
These days, I suppose they could claim the other bidder was on the Internet.

That is as much to protect dealers as it anyone else. A Dealer mate of mine said the Internet made him, the could go off buy some gear in a sale live, have a square up in the knock afterwards, bring it home put it on his website and unless we people were there at the sale they had no idea what he had given for it and definitely no idea what it had cost him afterwards. But farmers bored on an evening kept going back everynight and looking at said item on his website and nearly bought it in there minds before ringing, because it was there available see at his kitchen table.

Now when / if he goes to the sale its available online as well as live so all and sundry know what in theory he has given for it, they still have no idea what it has cost him in the knock afterwards if they even understand the knock or what the haulage has cost to get it home etc. They see it on his website at a price and then call him a robbing barsteward, as he said they weren't brave enough to stand next to him and bid against him but will call him every name under the sun afterwards. This is making the dealers more careful and this has got back to the auctioneers hence why the results disappear fairly quickly, because without the trade involvement these auctions struggle

There will have been an entry fee but certainly not a money maker for them..............unless they sell after the sale 🤷‍♂️
I've no idea what they are worth so wouldn't know if the sale prices were even near to true value.........modern tractor pricing always seems like a bit of a black art smoke & mirrors mystery in the same way the bonnet numbering means something to some brands & zero to others

I think cheffins are genuine often left bids a grand or two more than they have knocked them down to me for
fair enough if they just run it upto reserve price
Click to expand...
Not unusual for the seller to bid it up around the reserve price,I've a relative who used to work for an online auction firm it happened every sale, sometimes they'd knock it down to the underbidder if very near.

Basically a second unofficial auction / divvy up after the main auction because it’s understood they don’t take each other on in the main auction and they then sort it out amongst themselves afterwards which can result quite sizeable profits added onto some items for the initial purchaser or on the other hand them having to give more money to one of the others to keep hold of an item in some cases.
