I've been looking for a cultipacker for a good while now and finally found one that wasn't overpriced. I've been to a few farm auctions expecting to see them go for 150-300 dollars only to see them end up selling for close to 500 which isn't a deal at all.
I finally found one on craigs list and picked it up today for $250.00. I didn't even haggle with him just paid him and loaded it. It's a 9' wide double row in pretty good shape. Now maybe I can cut back on what the turkeys have been stealing. They can pick over a area pretty quickly. It's nice to see a few turkeys in your fields, but when you see repeatedly see over 30 a few days after seeding it's not so nice.
I overseeded some left over oats and winter rye into my clover plot for archery season and I became the local turkey hotspot. At one point I decided to take one with the bow, but it seemed that they would hit the fields at times opposite of when you bow hunt for deer. You'd see them from 1100 to 1430 almost daily, if you kicked them out you'd mess up the evening deer hunting.
Anyone else find craigs list to put items in the wrong area or state when replying to an add? Initially I saw a cultipacker listed on craigs list that showed up in my local search but turned out to be 250 miles away from it's listed city and in another state.
The cultipacker I purchased was placed by craigslist in the reading area of PA according to where craigslist placed it but it was actually much further away. It was just past Gettsburg Pa. almost 100 miles off even thou it has two regions closer and surprisingly it doesn't come up in a search there. Who knows mayby that's why I was lucky enough to get it.
