Best dealer for old stuff

We’ve got quite a few ‘nettle items’ we want to get rid of. Who would you suggest to speak to about coming into bulk buy it. I’ve tried the likes of Brocks and Agrilinc and it’s to old for them so need to look for more specialist people. Things like 2m and 3m spring tine cultivators, barrel spreaders, flat eight grab, worn out bale trailers etc. None of its scrap quality and is useable but it’s just gathering rust here. Is classic tractor worth a nose as I’ve never seen it?

Where about a are you? Transport will kill the job if you are far from the point of sale.

Give it a good wash and stick it in a collective farm sale, if 2 people want it then it will find it's 'true' value.
Ask a dealer to price the job lot and they'll ask you for £300 to 'cover their wasted time', before sticking it on their website for more than it cost when it was new in 1982... ??

My nice stuff I sell on here, but if you want the best price put it on Ebay they are greedy on commissions but the prices it will al make will shock you.

I have a working lister elevator in the back of the shed, but according to ebay listings no one wants one anymore... going to have to cut it up, shame really as its an old one with steel guards.

Again as said before location is critical. We are looking for an elevator but the transport cost on top of the bidding price sometimes pushes it too far
