I have been noticing when I go to tractor shows, lately, that it seems that some prices have started coming down. I think it has to do with a few factors, people have less free cash because of fuel prices, meaning less people are going to shows or going with trucks and trailers, and when you have to spend $4.50 to fill you oil tank to heat your house, people may be spending money on that or trying to sell off tractors. Anyway, I think there are less people buying and that the demand is going down while the supply is going up and people are willing to spend less. I have been taking my car, not truck, to shows and that has limited my ability to buy. In fact I would have bought a Landlord a few weeks ago. This is good news if you are trying to buy and bad if you are trying to sell.

Has anyone else seen this trend?

The B12 that just went for $127 (Approx) was a steal, even if it wasn't running. The weights on it would pay for the gas. I'd say yes. Except maybe the really rare will be a little higher. I was looking at a $350 Panzer in the MA show back a few weeks ago. Couldn't buy it, need to pair down some machines.
