I'm a little frustrated this evening, I understand that a dealer needs to make money to cover their overhead just like the rest of us. I was interested in trading planters to go to a bulk fill with liquid fert mainly to band fert instead of my 7000 Deere. 6 row planter, not a lot of $$ but enough to mean something. I wanted to trade my Deere, it has 240 acres on all new openers and scrapers and several closing wheels complete with bearings. It also has yetter row cleaners and coulters. The planter has less than 500 acres on rebuilt corn meters, they offered me 1000 for it....
