[QUOTE="SPH, post: 1123376, member: 20580"] Gotta love CL ads. We've bought and sold some machinery using CL but it's amazing some of the crap and over-pricing some of these people put on there. Some guys think if you slap some paint on a tractor you can get nearly twice what it is worth, unless you think it's worth that as a show tractor then good for you but some pretty paint on an older 56/66/86 series IH tractor isn't going to make it any better tractor in the feed lot or in the field as an every day tractor. If you price something just right amazed how many calls you can get in 24 hours. Took an old 7ft 3pt Oliver sickle mower out of the shed last summer we hadn't used in over 10 years so figured why not try to get a couple hundred bucks for it since there is probably a limited market of people who would actually use it. Priced it at $400 I think and had 5 calls the first day and was sold and off the farm before the ad was even up for 24 hours. Made me wish we had started at a higher price! [/QUOTE]
