Subject: Re: Big auction today in Ripley, TN



Ethridge, TN
Lately, with a bunch of these auctions, you have to view the prices as "did" the item "actually" sell?? The jockeys and the dealers have started playing games in this area, at least from what I've seen and now heard from several sales. Dealers are pulling items that are slow movers to the consignments, and then they make the rounds. Might actually sell, but many times you can go to the next sale, and go gee, where did I see this particular piece of equipment before?? Some of this iron is getting alot of road miles put on it before it may actually ever change hands.

Might ask on those 8330's, did they have the front duals, or did they look like they had the front duals at one time?? 1500 series front axles, and no weights on them?? If that be the case, I probably have a pretty good idea where they came from, and this would not be the first sale they had been in. The pooled sales have become somewhat of a game.
