Ritchie bros / largest john Deere dealer

[Guest]

sure was true in the last sale ! looks like it cost someone at least $200 k for 400 hrs on s690's . wonder who is taking the licking on all those green combines . is it true that they are all leased units ? I kinda thought there was getting to be a shortage of late model used combines , and prices would rise, but not looking that way according to that sale ? I'm surprised deere lets that many into auctions

Hoping enough get STUNG to kill this trade every f*cking year bullshit!
Need a BIGGER trade diff or faster depreciation...
DO NOT buy 1-2 year old iron, let it SIT till Ritchies get it!
Stop building the iron already, lots are full of iron that NEVER see work.

# 1 in sales !

That might be the smartest thing you have ever said. Which isn't saying a lot but that was pretty good anyhow

If not, why not?
That is not a bad idea. Richie Brothers makes a strategic alignment with FNA who knows how to import fertilizer and generic chemical. RB has nothing to lose and more auction business to gain. They are big, influential, they have skilled people and know how to auction. The farmers have their cash in place when they goto RB auctions so its same routine with a different product to sell.
If they even had only one fert and chem auction, man, that would ****ing send a message!!!
The offset is, fert and chem is "presented as" being in constant demand whereas used machinery inventory needs to be liquidated.

Lots of the Deere equipment is due to leases up go back to original dealer who has sold out he dumps and Richies is the way! New leases are new owners'

Never see too many Gleaner or Massey's at Ritchies !

Not really, it is more like divorce... it will likely just cost a bunch of money!
