Combines Oakley Kansas Auction

Same question here, didnt make it either!!!

I was interested in the Cat 35 tractor.

Heard the 99 R62 with reel assist and no hdr braught $54,000 1994 R72 brought $28000

A couple of my friends bought a 99 R62 there for $49,000. RWA, Yeild monitor, and turret auger with around 1400 seperator hours. They bought two 700 series heads for five grand a piece. All I can say is those @n$%^and*)(*()*^and%$n^and(*(*%$%$*and()^%^%*(*(^%$n^and*()^($%*^$(*%^!!!!!! john deeres have ruined the combine market as bad as freightliners have ruined the truck market. It just goes to show how you can build an inferior product, sell it to anyone at cheap interest and screw the whole market up for anyone else with a decent product.

What part of the country did that 62 go toIJ I had heard that it was a rough machine or at least it was going to take a lot of parts to put it in good shape. Kelly

Would they like to sell one of the haedersIJ

No, I don't think they want to sell the extra because I all ready tried to talk them out of it. They're trying to find another 62 or 72 to fit it. In response to Kelly its going to eastern Colorado. They said it looks to be in good shape, but I'm supposed to go look at it sometime this week and I'll know more then. There was a nice looking 94'R72(only seen it driving buy at 65mph) at the three day auction in Garden City, KS. If anybody heard what that unit brought, I would be curious to know.

Im up here in Iowa, bad news for the sellers but maybe i should come to Kansas to bid on a combine. I could buy another one for the price the local dealer wants to boot with my tradein. iowaR52 .
