I've quit going to auctions. Last one I went to had a pallet of T posts (around 400 or so) that I was interested in (TS price was $3 and change) when the auction price went over $4 I was done and there was still the 10% auction fee to be added to it. I don't get the mindset of paying more than new price for used equipment.
If I go to an auction it's to visit with people from the neighborhood. If there is something there that I get for a reasonable price, that's a bonus. If I want to get a good deal I go to FB Marketplace or Kijiji. If I can't find a good deal on used then I save my money and buy new.

I got beat on everything I bid on, some things went at ridiculous prices.

I wondered how it would go price wise. Looked like a good crowd there when I drove by yesterday. I thought about going up there as there was some stuff I wouldnt mind getting, but now isnt the right time for me. I did get a double bottom plow from Pat a couple weeks before he sold the place to the Amish.

Did he sell to Boone's?

Near the end they started lumping lots together and selling all for one price.

From what I understand he sold it to one of the Amish family that recently moved into Meadows of Dan. Not sure the name. They are opening a building supply store from what I have heard.

I am not surprised as some of that stuff was so specific to a certain model. I saw lots of backhoe buckets gone this morning. Man he had a lot of stuff in those buildings.
