Like someone else said, there are a lot of shiester auctioneers out there. It should be made clear way before the auction starts how things are sold and not changed to try to get more money or just because a certain person doesn't want the whole package. They could sell what they didn't want by themselfs after the auction. Ritchie Bros. will sell rippers and winches seperate on Cats but it is listed in the bidding catalogue and only on popular models. The winning bidder, if other than the buyer of the Cat, has to pay a fee of about $750 to have the implement removed by the auction staff. This is a much better way to do it. If someone only wanted the weights or duals off of a tractor, they wouldn't care if they scratched the tractor or dented it etc. Tractors should be sold complete and if there are things that can be taken off, they should be before the sale. I was at an auction once where they sold the big stuff first and the junk at the end. They would have got a lot more money the other way around. A lot people don't show up first thing because usually there is a bunch of junk to sell. The bigger stuff at the end keeps people there. If there are specific implements for a certain machine, then they should be sold after the machine. Something common like a 12' disc wouldn't matter when it sold. Dave

Jon's Allis has a small front loader and though it doesn't carry much, it serves his needs. It was the hard starting and low power that made him think it was time to replace the old girl. Jon called me to help him discover why his tractor wouldn't start
