I just talked to a used equipment dealer about a nice used low hr machine, he couldnt tell me anything about it because he just bought it at auction told me to take the sn to a dealership for more info.
Got me to thinking maybe I could go straight to the auction myself and get the same equipment for less. After all he didnt offer any guarantees or warranty on used tractor
I know its buyer beware but what is the difference if I buy from a used equipment dealer or auction ? Are these auctions listed somewhere or do you need license to attend. I have attended Tri-Greens auction lot in London Ohio years ago but only saw junktractors.
What is typical markup for used equipment figuring, they have trucking expenses plus profit.
