Yanmar YM2000 tractor - eBay (item 120636860472 end time Oct-28-10 17:00:56 PDT)

Might go cheap.....what do you think? (no reserve)
And what about these? http://cgi.ebay.com/Used-1988-Yanma...aultDomain_0&hash=item588a8ea787#ht_484wt_922

To me ,Ebay doesnt produce really any deals, its an auction with millions of potential bidders, usually produces fair market value, unless its something unusual or rare. Do to vast exposure,I use it as a pulse of the current marketplace,to judge somethings current market value, as do many others. I think it will close in the low 2000s, but you never know for sure. Lately Ive seen 2wd YM2000s on CL asking between 1800-2400. Just my opinion.
I was recently in the market for a 2wd Yanmar in that hp range, so Ive priced them.

I know what you mean about ebay deals on some things.......and why bid early and give everyone a chance to outbid you?

That being said, tractors in these parts (N.E.) sell for more than they do down south...a 24 hp diesel tractor for 2K is cheap here.

I doubt it will last out the day. Ebay will probably pull it as soon as they realize what it is. Ebay doesn't normally allow gray market Yanmar sales.

I saw a tractor a week or two ago (ym2000) it was used and private party, somewhere around ATL area on CL. The guy wanted about $500 more than you can buy one from Spalding tractor with a 1 year warrenty?

I believe its dealers who are banned from selling grey market Yanmars on ebay, not private party sales.

nope i think its any yanmar.

Ebay is not the "top dog" for great prices. Now craigslist, you can find some pretty darn good deals there. :thumbsup:

Indeed..that is where I found mine!

Yep, the YM2000 is gone.
