Back In the early 1990's, it was sometimes nice to go to auctions, as only 10 People would show up, and you would kind of talk among yourselves, before the auction began (No Phone Bids and No Internet Bids). The 10 of you might agree, not to bid against one another, on certain items. But those days are gone today. I still go to the Mecum Tractor Auctions, more to watch, just because one of the auctioneers is a good friend of mine. I do agree, some really do have deep pockets. I see some of the same people bidding, I saw at the last auction, and it was just the week before. But those I do notice don't bid on a lot of the stuff I am interested in. But if I had the room to have the bigger stuff. I'd be In trouble, as I would have to pay through the nose to get anything. The residential line stuff, you can still get at a decent Price, sometimes even compact Tractors. But any of the old field tractors, forget it, if any of the regulars are there. They would make you pay for it, and you would probably pay more, than the tractor is actually worth in restored condition.
