[QUOTE="chevytaHOE5674, post: 1825456, member: 19817"] Everyone's situation is indeed different. What's the same for everyone is the staggering increase in production cost the last few years. If you keep newer late model equipment you are fully aware of this, if you have older stuff bought a few years ago you may not be as aware. Take FarmerJans 3 balers with a total cost of 10k of less. In today's current market I just watched a 4x5 net wrap NH baler with 35,000 bales on it sell for 9,500 at auction and a JD with a few less bales sell for over 10k. 4 years ago those were $2500 dollar machines. So buying 3 balers for less than 10k would be lucky to get you some old New Holland chain balers in the current market. [/QUOTE]
