I enjoy looking ahead...what sales are coming down the pike?
Got my eye on one end of November in southwest Minnesota, a farm retirement auction November 30, 2017 for Tim & Suzanne Milbeck in Dawson, MN. This is an auction by my good friends at Henslin Auctions (http://www.henslinauctions.com).
I will be covering this auction.
Tons of super nice condition equipment on this sale:

These sharp, low hour Magnum tractors tend to attract a lot of buyer interest. Lot of love out there for these Magnums. That love really shown through on 2 days in a row back in September 2015 when we saw the 2 highest ever auction sale prices on CaseIH 7120 tractors. First came a 1990 model 7120 with just 1,570 hours on a northeast Michigan farm auction on September 11, 2015. It sold for $69,000...still a record. Here's a picture of it:
The next day, September 12, 2015, on a farm auction in southwest Minnesota, the 1991 CaseIH 7120 2WD with 2,149 hours pictured below sold for $67,000...record for a 2WD 7120:
