Heres a few perspectives, one site i watch is purplewave. they have over 200,000 active bidders, they will either run 3% commission or 100 bucks per item you list. However, buyer will pay 10%
Bigiron i think has around 150,000 bidders, last i knew their commission was based on total sales, higher sales, lower commission. there is no buyers fee.
They both have a very wide area they are active in. my bidder numbers are very low on both haha
To me most auctioneers who do both internet and live auctions are only known to the few that follow them, i dont see the exposure being any better than a live only auction. Since it seems like you are only selling a few tractors, a couple haying equipment items, and a few trailers, i would go purplewave or bigiron. since you mentioned k-bid, then i assume you are up around MN or ND, and i see a lot of equipment listed from those areas on both sites i listed, i dont think you would get hurt at all on it.
let us know what you do, who knows, i may bid on a trailer or two, give me an excuse to road trip up there haha

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
