I had a pickup header for sale several years ago. A guy called and came and looked at it with his son who could speak English (the guy couldnt), The kid said they owned an implement in Mexico. He asked what I wanted for the header and he pulled out the biggest wad of $100's I'd ever seen. He wanted to buy my combine too but I was still using it. The kid said there next stop was 250 miles away to look at more stuff. I filled out some paper work they had for customs and he said a truck would be coming in a couple weeks. When the truck came I asked the driver where he was headed and he said 3 more pickup headers and a combine.
I bought a Quadtrac at Abilene Machine out in Kansas. As I was sitting at the counter filling out some paperwork a Mexican guy was there buying some combine parts. Same deal though, biggest roll of $100 bills I’ve ever seen comes out of his front pocket. Had to have been $20-30k. It was comical how big it was. Guy I was dealing with said he was a jockey buying up combines in the area and sends them back home. Said the combines hopper will be full of new replacement parts when it’s loaded up too. |
