BEWARE OF TBN SELLING ADVICE!

[Professor Marvel]

Pretty sure I remember your post and thought there was a lot more criticism directed at you than justified. I don't remember the participants. Glad you got it sold.

It might be a good idea to read through the 275 posts in the original thread..... some hostile/angry/nasty posts...... prior to making a judgement here.
That original thread was apparently NOT closed because of anything that I said or did!
It was closed, because there was a nasty childish fight going on between ......OTHERS!

I am sorry! I will go to my safe space now,..... and try to..... "figure it out all by".... myself !

I did not read that thread but opening a revenge thread doesn't help anyone..

Glad you got it sold.

was the buyer experience with the nuances of a tab and the improvements made over the decades since your machine was made, or is he a newcomer to the world of construction equipment that fell for a pretty face without understanding features lacking in antique equipment, but standard on modern equipment.

I wouldn’t go overboard with patting myself on the back after scamming a newcomer out of his hard earned money.

Lipstick on a pig comes to mind.

How bout we let it rest and don't start all over. Not worth it.

Coobie didn’t earn at least a worthy mention for negativity?

I wouldn't point fingers at bad advice, I'd just say that there's a pretty wide range when it comes to the value of used equipment. Not only that, getting in front of buyers is the biggest factor.

If we had a way to instantly connect a seller of a piece of machinery to every single interested buyer, then everybody would get the true market value for their machine. Outside of that, it's a bit of a crap shoot when it comes to what one platform versus another will drum up in terms of bids and buyers. List it on eBay and maybe that week you find a buyer, or maybe on another site you list it for three months and nothing.

FWIW we now have a Tractors & Equipment For Sale group associated with our Facebook page that in time will be linked to our site as it grows in terms of popularity. About 600 members now and counting. There are dozens of for sale groups on Facebook and as you found, some are great. If only they were all unified instead of broken up into many different groups with different levels of quality.

+1 there aren't any ford 3400 TLB's for sale at a $9000 price, I did a lot of looking around.. but to try to suppress a persons opinion is never justified.

It is pretty ridiculous for folks to be posting about a price listed on a classified item. If you don't agree just move on it's not you're business.. PERIOD.
