No Japanese Gray market tractors. Don't know the reason.

On the back of the lot there were several Ford 4630s, with tires and front axles off. Obviously just came out of a container. Looked like they had been in a fleet or tractors sopmewhere. Possibly they will have the Dupont rebuild for next sale. They looked to be in pretty good shape.
Nothing came home with me.

I'd have thought you couldda gone up th $3500 on that 8N? Interesting,tractors seem to be holding some value anyway but also some deals too.

What kind of shape was that 3000 in? For it to be priced so close to an 8n it must have been junk.

I haven't been to the Charlotte sale for a while. The last time they didn't sell many items, just tried to get a bid,and then walked on. The management is totally in control of the prices. If you buy,better be prepared to work on the equipment. Known as the Junk sale.

I think that 3000 was a gas tractor and didn't look good.

I'm familiar with buying things there and working on them. They moved on quickly from a few things at this sale also. Some times it's because the seller has a high reserve price on it.
