They will put it in its own section amongst the machinery and advertise it as a dispersalYork machinery, really ?
it will get mixed in with all the crap,
And no one will know if genuine,

There are idiots in whatever format you use.It’s a lottery selling anything, on line is the new format, but farmers are a funny bunch and love a day out ! So both have pro’s, but both have con’s, fb is a keyboard torture, you have to decipher the idiots from the genuine!
PratThere are idiots in whatever format you use.
I just advertised a muck spreader for a "local elderly farmer" (aka @Grassman ) on Facebook.
It sold within 10 minutes and have 4 others to ring if it falls through.
And a particularly bad example.Facebook Market Place is a good place to sell equipment.
Some good clear pictures.
A fair and detailed description
The right price, and it will sell !!
A good example:
Ford TW35
Ford TW35 for sale Have owned this tractor for a number of years now and has probably only done 1000 hours max in the last 15 year but new house & lack of use forces very reluctant sale Mechanically...www.facebook.com
And a particularly bad example.
he's supposed to be a machinery dealer. Can't even wash it off or fit a pto guard
the amount of machinery selling with no pto guard is unreal! or a digger thats got to ton of crap on the undercarriage, all saying well maintained!And a particularly bad example.

I've never seen a definitive law or whatever that states wether a dealer should sell something fully guarded.the amount of machinery selling with no pto guard is unreal! or a digger thats got to ton of crap on the undercarriage, all saying well maintained!
From the first picture I thought it was burnt outAnd a particularly bad example.

i fully agree! on principle it should come out of a dealers yard fit for purpose!“I've never seen a definitive law or whatever that states wether a dealer should sell something fully guarded.”
I think if a machine is to be of satisfactory quality and fit for its purpose ie basic sale of goods business to business , then a functioning pto shaft is going to be needed.

could do with circulating that round a lot of dealers i knowWhat you must do?
If you supply, whether for payment or not, second-hand equipment for use at work you must take steps to ensure it will be safe and without risks to health at all times when being set, used, cleaned or maintained by a person at work, as far as is reasonably practicable (section 6 of the HSW Act). In addition you must also provide adequate information about using the equipment, normally this will be a copy of the original equipment's instructions in English. This duty applies to importers, distributors and suppliers of equipment for use at work, including one-off sales by users and anyone refurbishing equipment for use at work.
A margin is fair enough but it seems they also like people to pay for the yard full of machinery that they haven’t sold yet.Not sure what I think if that, they seem to like buying a cultivator for £350 and retailing it for £3750... and yes, I know everyone needs a margin.
But they are apparently very good to deal with, so who knows?
