I was looking at some tractors that are for sale on a local website and saw something that I never seen before. A John Deer 85F orchard tractor. They are asking $21,500 for it with 277 hours. https://www.jandksales.net/inventor...5f?dlr=1&pcid=2951752&sfc=0&ssc=0&lo=3&snai=0
Since it looks so odd and I never heard of them before, I did a quick search to learn about them, and I found this auction result link that I believe is the exact same tractor. It says that it sold for $15,700 https://www.specialtycropeq.com/lis...ohn-deere-85f-orchard-slash-vineyard-tractors
The auction place that it sold at is probably a hundred or so miles away from the place that has it listed for sale today.
I've always wondered how much they add to the price when selling stuff. At 25%, give or take, this seems like more profit then I was thinking. I'm not criticizing them, I know that anybody could go to those auctions and buy for less and they try to make a profit off of it, I just thought it was good info to have when looking at used tractors for sale.
