I have noticed that small tractors bring top dollar at consignment auctions... big tractors do not.

Try tractorhouse.com.

I've sold two tractors through this site. I list them on craigslist (never got a single response) and also on TBN (several nibbles, but no sales) and tractorhouse (2 for 2). Tractorhouse is also free - both for listings and picture uploads.

Just my .02

Well, Dirt and others, for the moment, I have decided to keep my machine. I spoke with the Mrs. and she says if I go gas on the Gator she might let me stretch the tractor budget for now. So, I am going to keep my beloved 3720. See...the therapy is working already. Also, I do appreciate the responses to my question, for if I or others I might know need to know how to place/sell items, this is invaluable information. Thanks to all.

Yea, you just think its working. You know as well as me that you still have that secret desire to trade. You just have not admitted it yet. Trading might be cheaper than a lot of therapy, just depends on how many sessions you need. I know myself its cheaper to just buy another machine,because theres not enough time in the day to straighten out this sick pup. lol

Sincerely,
Dirt

Matt and Dirt and others,

I appreciate your counsel. I am enrolled in therapy now and it is going well. My therapist says that I have a very low likelihood of recovery, though....well, with the medication.....

I liked the 4520. I would have kept it, but it was too large to access about 1/3 of my property without cutting a number of trees, and it took almost all my garage space with its attachments, so I parted with it. As far as the machine itself, I really liked it and would own another if I could justify it for my needs.

Go to one of the magnetic sign places and buy some of the material (magnetic) that they make the signs out of. Cut it into pieces the same size as your tractor model decal. Go to JD and buy a bunch of different model decals of tractors you would like to have and put them on the magnetic sign material. Now, when you get the urge for a different tractor, sort through your collection and stick them over the model #s on your current tractor. New tractor whenever the urge strikes.:D

put it out in front yard with a "sale sign"

ironsearch.com ? i think is site, never did like the site myself (to hard to search for stuff)

ebay has way to many rules, plus they get a chunk of change from your sale.

contact a local tractor dealer maybe. though that might not go over well

local co-assignment auctions. *ughs* folks surprise me of pushing top dollar for stuff, that you could nearly buy for new for a little more.
