Why ever did you not just buy it over the phone
then we could have had another I’m to busy to travel and got ripped off thread 
Today at work
- Thread starter Penmoel
- Start date
then we could have had another I’m to busy to travel and got ripped off thread 
So here is a little story for youWhy ever did you not just buy it over the phone
Up until this year,majority of kit was bought blind over the phone,tractors,pumps,reelers etc,99% of the time it all arrived as described.
Start of this year I bought a hydraulic primer for one of the older slurry pumps from a contractor not far from Somerset,it never turned up and am out of pocket,we bought that T7.210 blind from a very large New Holland dealership in Shropshire,it turned up with a few issues that had I gone up to see it would of been resolved before it was put on a lorry. I’ve discovered that people’s “word” is worth about as much as fek all,and some people have no shame.
So rather add a few more miles to the 182k on the work car than start a thread crying about being ripped off

Today I found the tup that I thought had been predated by the badgers last autumn.
He is called one bollock for a reason, he identifies as a ewe sometimes particularly when in hiding in with some ewes.
Sadly he doesn't always keep entirely to his gender fluidity. 8 lambs so far, only 6 weeks before expected.

I would dare buy anything over the phone from Agri Linc , Amtec or Oakfields as in my experience they are as honest as you can get with their descriptions . I’m sure there are others out there who are as good but buyer beware .So here is a little story for you

100% yes
I thought RVT would have a bit more about them than sending a tractor out with “faults” despite being through the “workshop “ and “prepared ready for sale”

Doesn't look like it's designed for dealing with slurry
Got quite a bit of stuff off agrilinc and have never been to the place don't mess about getting stuff to you either
I have a JCB robot off them not been any bother bought over phone100% yes

I’m sure 99% of the time they are fantastic and have many many happy customers
I wouldn’t buy without viewing first again from them

Suppose they're only as good as the mechanic that looked it overI’m sure 99% of the time they are fantastic and have many many happy customers

Completely agree
If worn track rod ends were not picked up,front suspension not working,various external lights not working and hour clock not reading what was advertised then maybe the “pre sale preparation “ needs to change?

A lovely day for picking purple sprouting broccoli. Just a pity we’re due for nearly an inch of rain in the next 24 hours.

Planet barley drilled nicely in some fields.
Cultivated the next field which had some wet areas. Just passable with the cultivator but will be a no go area for the drill.
This area in the corner was a swamp.
Apparently the family thought I looked a tit.
