Wow.
The Stanley and Rita Forman Trust auction September 12th in Kingfisher, Okla. by our friends at Lippard Auctioneers (www.lippardauctions.com) may be the best example yet, in a growing very long list of recent examples, of how used farm equipment buyers all over right now are placing extreme value on finding and acquiring very good condition used farm equipment, with bit of age on it and low usage.
Like Gold.
