They're at it again!

Wayne,
If you look at his other auctions, he is selling more than that one Yanmar. May be a "Tractor Dealer" without too much knowledge.
He did not amend the point about the glow plugs either.

Re: They\'re at it again!

I emailed him early today and he responded that he was going to change it. I did the same thing a few months ago for the same dealer selling the same tractor. He even acknowledged this in his reply to me.
I had someone call me yesterday about one of my tractors. He was also looking someones YM1500d with a loader for $7000. 1500d seller said the tractor was a 1988 model! Also overpriced.
Guess it will never end.

( Guess it will never end. )

It's not as if it was hard to dig up info on yanmars. A search on yanmars on the i-net turns up dozens of -good- sites.

Two issues here... shere ignorance, coupled with laziness, and the other is just plain fraud. Between the two.. it is deffinately a 'caveat emptor' market.

Re: They\'re at it again!

I just looked at the 12 year old 2000 bd--still says 12 years old (estimated) but then at the bottom is a little disclaimer that they were told it is actually 24 years old (so it must be in good shape because their estimate was so far off). Hmmmm

I just read on ebay that Hinomoto builds tractors for International!

Re: They\'re at it again!

Didn't Hinomoto go bankrupt or close or something in the last 80's or early 90's?

I emailed the seller explaining the year of mfg, and he just blew me off saying "The Tractor Is Like New Cond And The Loader Is New" 
...I guess thats makes everything like new!...

Re: They\'re at it again!

This one says Hinomoto manufactures tractors for Massey Ferguson. Doesn't Iseki do that now? Did Hino ever build 'em for Massey?
