I've bot a number of items through the Purple Wave auction. Farm stuff and then a lot of cities and counties public works sell old stuff. Got to watch things as usually they sell something that has been used to near death or obsolete. They usually list if something is inoperable but don't count on it. They charge a 10% buyers premium and then here in KS they get sales tax also which is close to another 10%. I automatically figure about 20% when I'm bidding.

Just bot a 72" 3 point mower from a city. You don't really see all the places in the pictures where they have rewelded things from hitting stuff. Once I got it home and looked underneath, well, I'm glad I have a welder and know how to use it cause it will need it.

Been looking for a tractor with 3 point and live pto to mow with and pull a blade. When I see one (preferably red) I will call or email the owner to get the low down first.

It used to be that the sellers paid a percentage and maybe they still do so the auctioneer collects double, don't know. They email about auctions and then you can set up a watch list of things you are interested in. Then they send a reminder email the day before to let you know the auction is closing the next day. Some of us wait for the last half hour or so to bid. Sometimes I've been outbid in the last 30 seconds and didn't have a chance to rebid.

Today's Featured Article - Gatherin of the Orange - by Rick Nikolich. In July of 1998 I was talking to fellow Allis Chalmers collector Mike Schilling about the annual "Gathering of The Orange" AC show coming up in August of 1999. He got this wild idea that we should get a convoy of AC tractors and drive them from Charlotte, Michigan 105 miles to LaGrange, Indiana. ... [Read Article]
