You do what you can afford to do. If you want something now and can afford the going price you pay and take possession.If you can wait until the tractor market plumets because of overstock, did you really even need a tractor in the first place? I bought mine last year and paid what I think is a decent price. I love it and even with the break in period have managed to put a 100 hours in it with my projects and at my sons. Which is a lot for me. in about 8 months of what I would call useable time. Now that it is broken in and I can do anything with it, I expect to put another 100 on it this year, at least.
I also still love to look at used tractors and will probably do that until I die. I have an eye on a used Yanmar that I wish the dang thing would sell so it isn't a temptation. It is a great deal, or would seam.
My hope is that the market never gets so bad that they cannot sell tractors at a profit, because that would mean it is really bad out there.
If I was still waiting on the market to do whatever it is going to do, I wouldn't be on my tractor tomorrow. But I will be on it tomorrow : ) The rest of you can be smart and wait while I'm enjoying my life now.
I'll bet most people waiting on the market to change don't need to buy a tractor to get on one tomorrow. If you know what I mean
