Plenty of farm sale machines go through dealers yards after the sale. Nothing new in that.

I’m not sure I understand your point. If there is one
Just saying two good looking case axel flow combines out of farm sales gone to dealers interesting bit is how much they put on them when some one wants to buy or trade.
Well they would have gone for less money if the dealer had not bid, he must have been the highest bidder

More like, there is not many farmers prepared to put their hand in their pocket, stood in a field making a large financial decision,
The thing is you can get a lone agreement threw dealers not in a sale.

You’d think it’ll be gone through the workshop and sold with warranty through the dealer
You can get finance through a sale as long as it is pre arranged

Where do You think dealers buy stock from?
It’s easy money though. Just a quick wash with the magic steam cleaner and stick 50% markup on.

I’ve bought stuff before from sales and then financed it afterwards (?) I did have to obviously pay for it first…but you can have the money within a couple of days. I try to buy everything from sales but with internet bidding there doesn’t seem to be as many bargains thesedays. Often higher than dealer prices

You've just confirmed my suspicions about your business model. You're as bad as Pete and Kev for selling holes and fork handles. Keep an eye out for their van in case they realise you're competing on their turf.

You can think it but often not the case. less a dealer does to get it sold the better,then get paid to fix it once some trusting farmer has money into it. I’ll buy most of my equipment expecting to spend money on it and farm sales were generally the place to go. collective sales big no no. Farmer passed away was usually the best.

One of these was mine. I was surprised it went to a dealer. Only picked up last Wednesday and already on the website. I’d be interested to know what they are asking for it, as it left here already polished up.
