yanmar 1300 value?

[normde2001]

Heck, start high. Set a reserve that is near your cost.

Per Don Lancaster, self-proclaimed ebay guru: if your item sells within the first couple of times you list it on ebay, you set the reserve too low.

.....and I, also a self-proclaimed Ebay guru, say if the seller is happy with the selling price, the buyer paid too much.

I appreciate everyones insight, I have been in touch with a well known Dealer who is listed as a member on this site whose business resides in the buckeye state. He has recommended the 2210D over the 1610D to me. It has 6 more HP and is only 200.00 more, 2 cylinder versus 3 cylinders, what is all you guys opinions. Which one would you select?

Just a thought, in case you don't want to expose your telephone number to the whole world, you could ask them to send you a message via the ebay message service if they'd like to drive before buy. That would keep both your telephone and email address private.

Speaking as an occasional ebay seller - that's exactly how I want it to end up.

My suggestion to show the seller's phone number is to get it out there as early as possible, before ebay finds and bans the auction.

Many of your target customers know that Ebay enforces Yanmar-USA's assertion of trademark, and the customer hopefully will write your number down the first time he sees it. At that point if the auction disappears, you still have the potential customer. And I think you want to say 'come for a test drive' to distinguish your auction from the scammers, who float the purported location of their equipment all over three continents if you ask to see it before bidding.

Ebay won't forward PM's to you if they have killed the auction. But if they killed it, they will return a note to all PM senders 'Be Very Afraid...' and you don't want that.

2210 is the way to go.I have a Y1700 and a 2210 and I like the 2210 the best.

I'm a big fan of 2cyl. and the 2210 is a great value. Just be sure it fits your lot and slopes.

If we are talking about the same dealer, he shows the 2210D being $1400 less than the 1610D.

Well, that particular dealer will want a happy customer, and if that is what he recommends based on your uses and property, then that is what you should have. I'm sure you'll be happy with the tractor.
