I always like going to farm auctions because you could always see stuff sell to the highest bidder without a lot of games.Here lately I'm seeing farm auctions in ohio with reserve prices mostly on tractors.I've been to 3 farm sales in the last month where the tractors didn't sell.I wish they would tell you in advance of the sale,but I guess they think you wouldn't show up if it was just a tag/yardsale type farm auction.I was at an estate sale today that had two tractors that didn't sell.I bid a tractor up to $4300,some other guy bid $4400 and I quit.The auctioneer announced the reserve was not met,then a minute later said I bought the tractor for $4300.I told him I wasn't the high bidder,he said "The other bidder was the house bidder." I told him I was the only bidder then from $3500,I would take it for that. The next tractor didn't make it's reserve either.They just waste your time.
