Good lord, the crowd must have all left their wallets at home or something! That’s junk / parts machine prices on every one of the implements and the combines in Lancaster county PA. That 1086 went ok, 656 did ok. Wow. Where was this sale?

[@antiquepickingadventures]

Auction was held in Northwest Ohio near Willshire just a few miles from Indiana. Most farmers in the area have moved on too much larger equipment. Sadly, the small farm is quickly becoming a thing of the past in this part of Ohio. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!

That auctioneer was trying to wrench every cent out of that smelter bait Clear that it's sat there for a long time and good chance that bearings are dry and rusted but if you can get running it's gravy and if not you're not out much. Amazing how used combines bring so little at auction. Too many moving parts to wear out. Prices offered by bidders at auctions are for the most paid with discretionary income cash better known as "fun money" By the looks of things fun money is staring to dry up indication of a slowing economy.

These items needed to go away regardless of price. Farm had been sold and new owner was taking possession. Easy to see why area farmers don't want this old machinery. Just drive the country roads in Northwest Ohio and look at the large machinery farmers are using today. Sadly small farms are pretty much a thing of the past!
