John Lyons Trainer Keith Hosman & LocalFarmTractors.com
Want to find terrific tractors near you at the best prices? Use this site to find walk-in Farm Tractor Dealers near you, listed by state, city by city.
Plus: eBay lists tons of great farm tractors every second of every day. You'll save hundreds if not thousands. The trick is finding one in your area. It doesn't do any good to find a tractor in Vermont if your farm or ranch is in Oregon, right?
LocalFarmTractors.com lists farm tractors within a reasonable driving distance from your home (usually no more than 250 miles). Click on any of the states listed to the left (first click on "By Tractor Location") to see what's available near you. Note that I've opened up the driving radius for states with fewer offerings (hello, Alaska).
Finally, scroll to the bottom of most pages and (in the left column) you'll also find Farm Implements & Attachments which includes listing for disk harrows, manure spreaders, plows, harvester equipment, post hole tools and tillers for sale:
A Word of Caution eBay has its trouble makers, as does any group. Research your tractor thoroughly and establish a relationship with your seller before putting down your money. Personally, I'd go look at the trailer in person to check out the intended purchase. (Remember, most tractors listed here are within a few hours of your home.)
A few steps you should take to protect yourself: - go see the tractor in person (or send a friend who lives locally) - get the sellers phone number and call to introduce yourself (thereby confirming their existence) - deals that seem too good to be true... are probably just that - never pay or send money with Western Union (you can't get your money back) - never, never, deal with anyone who sends you emails offering deals AFTER an auction ends or outside of eBay
It discusses horse trailers - but the concept remains the same.
