This response it for Harley, but I posted it ahead of his post because somehow in reading past posts Harley always seems to have the last word. Far be it from me to break with tradition. Harley, in a sense, I agree with you, because I have bought items on E.Bay, and with their feedback system, a lot of scheisters are weeded out. Anyone who bids on items from sellers who have a lot of negative feedback have only themselves to blame if they get ripped off. I bought my 1940 Farmall "A" from an E.Bay seller, but checked out the feedback first and found the seller to be very reputable. I also did not pay for the tractor in full until I picked it up. It turned out to be everything the seller represented it to be....not perfect, but in good shape and certainly very restorable. Perhaps feedback is an area that Kim & Co. on this site could explore, as it would provide an opportunity both for positive feedback as well as negative, and responses to either positive or negative. I have in the past E.Mailed more than one seller who has posted a tractor on this site and informed him that either the tractor isnt the model he is advertising or if he calls it restored, or excellent, and it is neither, or otherwise blatently misrepresented, and give him an opportunity to correct the ad. Twice it has worked, as corrections in the ads ensued. I didn't have to blab it in the public forum, although I would have at least made people aware of any discrepency, had the seller ignored the suggestion and continued to knowingly misrepresent what he was selling. Any buying or selling transaction requires a certain degree of faith between buyer and seller, but caution is not a dirty word. We can always exercise caution, whether selling or buying.

As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
