I want to think that the guy will get over spending drinky dough and realize what a cool toy he has before he can find a buyer. For all we know, the poor fella was on a bender when wifey called, they'd argued about what the guy did with his time and money, and she wanted to jab at him 'while the room was hot'.
Worst case scenario: the guy sells and takes a loss, someone gets an even better deal, maybe rags it out/neglects it because "I got a deal on it." IMO, that's not 'on the seller'.
Atsah I'm guessin' how you feel, because getting a fair price supports that you took care of the '05 and it was d__n fine bit of kit that deserve to be appreciated vs squandered. If you feel bad for the guy, he'll get by. If you feel bad for that nice Massey, well .. sometimes 'it hurts to let go' not knowing whether 'to a good home'.
I DON'T want to think the buyer's wife got the worst of a deal that looked so good for both parties. I'll stand on my optimism. Brother, you get that new tractor in time and move on, ok? It'll be lucky to have you.
